I

Restorative Shot

sustain and lane clear

II

Active

Cold Front

good flat damage to combo with dash, look for good trades now and dash through them to safety to minimize damage taken, or just clear wave fast

III

Torment Pulse

core damage. Can build decay if you don't want to get close

II

Healbane

early hp bonus, big heal on kill, great for early fights. anti heal is nice too. sell for spirit burn late if needed

Warp Stone

chase/disengage tool. do not ignore the bullet resist when activating the item.

debuff resist, good against pocket, upgrades to spellbreaker

Spirit Lifesteal

keeps us in the fight a little longer, upgrades to infuser

heavy spirit team, just great in general

Bullet Resilience

buy a little later when gun heroes start to get strong

Counterspell

op if you remember to use it, blocks cc, spirit burst, and even ults if you're locked in. Good for mid contest. Can delay if there's not much to parry

Active

Dispel Magic

more situational. Still a good buy if you need it

A good cheap option for anti-hate crimes if you have multiple cc's

more damage + rage on dash, will no longer proc on knives late due to knife scaling nerf

damage up

Active

Arctic Blast

cc and gives great burst if used before dash

to engage on easy targets

Spellbreaker

for spirit nukers that give you trouble (gt, lash, mina)
