rotations.

items, build as needed.

Item Build

Early Game

item
Mystic Burst
800
item
Extra Spirit
800
item
Monster Rounds
800

Swap for a Vitality T1 as needed

item
Improved Spirit
2400

Almost makes Splatter feel like it did pre shop update

item
Enchanter's Emblem
1600

Earlier is fine

item
Extra Stamina
800
item
Arcane Surge
2400

Dash jump for bonus damage on Splatter, always for Goo Ball unless you're fucked

Early Options

0-2

item
Active
Healing Rite
800

Use it to keep Emblem active, or your lane partner alive

item
Extra Regen
800

Just some extra health back

item
Extra Health
800

If your whole team is squishy

Core Items

item
Compress Cooldown
1600
item
Active
Warp Stone
3200

Double Goo Ball hit. You should have Goo Ball T5 right around now

item
Torment Pulse
3200

I like this early, helps with farming, really good damage

item
Superior Cooldown
4800
item
Duration Extender
1600
item
Tankbuster
4000

Doesn't feel as good as before, but still really important for damage

Mid Options

1-2

item
Debuff Reducer
1600

Especially vs slows or roots. Seven, Warden, Vindicta, Infernus

item
Healbane
1600

Feels almost mandatory a lot of the time. Easy to apply AOE

item
Active
Return Fire
1600

Extra damage back vs M1s. A little more offensive than Suppressor

item
Suppressor
1600

I think this item is underrated. The fire rate slow is comparable to Juggernaut, bonus Spirit is rare these days, and Torment Pulse applies this really easily

Late Game

Pick a few, no order

item
Fortitude
4000

I like all of the things this item does. The health is notably really good with your ult. Also makes it easier to kill objectives

item
Superior Duration
4800

You don't really care about duration on anything but Goo Ball, but you want the T2 anyway, it's only 1600 more, and it is +6%

item
Greater Expansion
4000

Hard to squeeze in but ability range is REALLY good on Viscous, and with your items

item
Active
Phantom Strike
6400

If they have Bebop, Lash, Seven, Gray Talon, or Vindicta I would buy this. More optional otherwise but still very good against M1s

item
Witchmail
6400

This plus Enchanter's is 32% Spirit Resist normally, 73% in Goo Ball. 10 Spirit is notable and the passive is good

Late Options

As needed, probably 0-2

item
Bullet Resilience
3200
item
Spirit Resilience
3200
item
Active
Debuff Remover
4800

If you bought Debuff Reducer, just upgrade it

item
Active
Healing Nova
4000

Idk I feel like this is a decent mid / late game pickup if everyone needs some health back

item
Active
Decay
3200

Actually does a ton of damage and good anti heal. Only problem is that it's single target

More Survivability

item
Plated Armor
6400

Haze, Infernus, maybe Wraith, Seven. Anyone with on hit stuff

item
Diviner's Kevlar
6400

Straight health and more time in Goo Ball. Good grab if you're dying too fast

item
Active
Colossus
7200

If you really need to be the tank for the team

More Utility

item
Active
Divine Barrier
8000

A nice kind of supporty option, that isn't healing based

item
Active
Magic Carpet
6400

Flying Goo Ball!

item
Active
Curse
6400

If they have one person you cannot deal with

More Damage

item
Boundless Spirit
8800

Straight damage bump on everything, you already paid for 1600 and no slot

item
Active
Scourge
6400

Really good damage, esepcially if they're heavy on tanky frontliners

item
Spirit Burn
6400

Actually does so much damage. Antiheal is absurd too

item
Active
Infuser
8000

Kind of testing this right now. Popping this and then smacking someone with Goo Ball and Splatter sounds fun
