Item Build

Mid Core

Late Core

Deadlock Item

I

Imbue

Mystic Expansion

Can imbue 3, but I prefer 1 so that I can tag distant enemies and close the gap

Deadlock Item

III

Active

Warp Stone

Default bullet resist item; makes Infuser much stronger since you can effectively reposition to hit more targets

Deadlock Item

II

Mystic Vulnerability

By this stage in the game, this item is better than improved spirit in every way

Deadlock Item

IV

Escalating Exposure

Best raw dmg increase

Deadlock Item

III

Greater Expansion

This makes Infuser much stronger; do not discount the spirit resist either--can buy sooner against heavy spirit damage

Deadlock Item

III

Active

Metal Skin

Cycle this item's uptime with Warp Stone's so that you always have bullet resist

Early/Mid Flex

Deadlock Item

I

Monster Rounds

Can buy in early lane

Deadlock Item

II

Reactive Barrier

Instead of spirit lifesteal

Deadlock Item

Capstones

Deadlock Item

IV

Plated Armor

Anti-gun carry if a teammate has juggernaut

Deadlock Item

IV

Spellbreaker

Default anti-spirit/Pocket

Deadlock Item

If enemy carries are not a problem, this caps your damage

Annotations

Deadlock Item

IV

Healing Tempo

This is a terribly inefficient item, even when playing Gun Victor. This item is only ever useful for characters that can apply this to their teammates. Mathematically awful. Waste of souls.

Deadlock Item

III

Active

Cultist Sacrifice

Don't buy until buffed. 2.4k souls for much worse Range than Expansion. The gun DMG is irrelevant outside of lane. HP not better than the resist from GE. The souls just end up paying for the bad item.
