I

Extra Charge

Try to sync dropping assistant with 2 bolt charges until you have t2 bolt. I often solo kill someone on wave 3 with assistant + 2 bolts.

I

Monster Rounds

Helps you keep wave prio so you can play bridge. Our hero is 3x the laner when you have wave prio and have them held under their tower.

I

Extra Spirit

Early spirit good

II

Enchanter's Emblem

Early spirit good

I

Imbue [E]

Mystic Expansion

Expansion is needed to be able to farm neutral camps properly with bolt

III

Rapid Recharge

God tier power spike with t3 bolt

III

Imbue [E]

Surge of Power

Another god tier power spike, you will be one shotting people at this point in the game or killing buildings solo. Also a source of burst movement speed which we abuse a lot.

III

Veil Walker

Amazing for staying on map forever and for sneaking building damage. With all the movespeed we buy and get from spirit this makes us very hard to catch and very fast at rotating.

II

Reactive Barrier

By far the most value defensive you can get if the game enables it. heroes that can't kill you without proccing it (abrams, haze, bebop) are what you want to buy this against.

III

Radiant Regeneration

I know this looks troll but trust me. This item in tandem with veil walker keeps you topped up and on the map at all times and is another source of burst movement speed. SKIP IF YOU ARE LOSING!!!

II

Active

Fleetfoot

Better than enduring speed imo, if they have a lot of slows you can buy both.

III

Greater Expansion

Amazing for bolt / rabbit / actives and almost every ult you steal. I buy it at this point to time with t2 rabbit.

III

Superior Cooldown

All our power is in our abilities so we want more of them.

II

Improved Spirit

Builds into boundless later, if you bought slowing hex or suppressor you can buy this earlier for better spirit investment timings.

IV

Boundless Spirit

Massive raw damage increase to everything and makes us even faster.

IV

Imbue [E]

Active

Echo Shard

Always broken with max rabbit. If I'm maxing ult before rabbit I usually won't buy this unless it goes extremely late.

III

Active

Alchemical Fire

Ton of damage and shred with how much spirit power we have. Just layer this on top of T3 rabbit and watch the free damage roll in.

III

Superior Duration

Usually buy after echo or scourge. Some ultimates like warden / drifter can warrant buying this earlier.

IV

Transcendent Cooldown

Better to fill open slots but if you're slotlocked or have a ton of actives you can upgrade to this.

IV

Spirit Burn

Really easy to proc and benefits a lot from all the aoe we buy. really good against ult seven / warden or anything else that calls for big antiheal. If antiheal isn't needed I never go this item.

IV

Active

Vortex Web

Strong option post echo shard if you bought slowing hex

IV

Active

Scourge

Can throw on your beefiest gorilla against spirit heavy lineups. With greater expansion and sup duration this item is crazy.

IV

Active

Magic Carpet

I don't buy this every game like I used to because veil walker and all the movespeed is enough but this is still the best positioning item in the game to land good bolts in teamfights

IV

Active

Divine Barrier

solid active with ability range on it. Good if you are getting owned by pocket or drifter ult.

I

Active

Healing Rite

best lane sustain option. I buy this most games but if you dominate you can skip it

II

Enduring Speed

If they have a ton of slows you can buy this to ensure you run away from anything combined with fleet. In general we already have plenty of movement speed though.

II

Healbane

Not my job but sometimes good vs heal heavy lineups

III

Counterspell

Amazing item now after the buffs. If they have telegraphed spells you NEED to dodge (wraith ult, lash ult, seven stun) this is always a strong buy.

III

Active

Metal Skin

Best anti gun hero item on this hero and often necessary to use seven and warden ults properly, we get a good amount of duration from our items so this pulls extra weight.

III

Active

Warp Stone

Always a decent item, if you are playing around stealing warden / seven / dynamo ults this is good

IV

Active

Unstoppable

If you're stealing dynamo or seven ult every fight and are against a lot of stuns

II

Active

Slowing Hex

Really strong item to enable kills on elusive heroes. heroes like lash / dash infernus are really hard to hit with bolts if we don't have this.

II

Suppressor

Broken vs m1 heavy lineups

III

Active

Knockdown

Good against Vindicta, Lash, and channeling ultimates like seven / dynamo.

III

Toxic Bullets

Some games you will be against a bunch of big chunguses with stacked spirit resist (bebop, mo, shiv). This item puts in crazy work vs those heroes and procs in only 2 shots on this hero.
