With a powerful weapon (and deadly venom to match), Vyper can slither into the back of teams and assassinate high-priority targets in a storm of bullets.

an edit of xera's build, heavy on actives
be mindful of how you use blood trib and try to hold onto
your vampiric/split shot cooldowns until it is necessary
updated early game ap, builds a little into spirit damage
early on to give vyper nice burst in lane
top set preferably in order, bottom set great too but not mandatory
II
Imbue
Quicksilver Reload
very strong dagger early on in lane, hard to hit but good poke + good burst damage that could be needed for comps that punish you harder then they do (note dagger falls off hard after like mid game)
II
Battle Vest
bullet resist + fire rate + weapon damage + regen wowww look at all those stats
I
Close Quarters
more damage up close : )
I
Rapid Rounds
fire rate
III
Burst Fire
we love sliding, fire rate is very much needed so get as soon as u canb
II
Bullet Lifesteal
buy this when you can, save for vampiric
I
Monster Rounds
for hard lanes but also saves up for cultist
III
Active
Cultist Sacrifice
if you want to farm hard after laning, also fire rate and health! can sell later
II
Backstabber
useful, sell later
II
Opening Rounds
great for killing and spirit powerrrr, sell later if need slots + want power spike (lucky shot/glass cannon)
annotations important
I
Mystic Burst
extra damage on your dagger, venom, bola... might seem a little excessive but i think its pretty neat for laning (definitely sell this at some point after laning/during mid game)
I
Active
Healing Rite
honestly quick healing is really good especially if poke-heavy lane or fighting a lot
I
Restorative Shot
preferably sell once you have vampiric burst
I
Extra Regen
works really well with battle vest (so much passive healing)
II
Spirit Shielding
good vs yamato, talon, burst spirit etc, good to keep for rest of game until spellbreaker/spirit res
II
Reactive Barrier
good into lots of stuns, it scales so it's nice
I
Extra Health
if you neeeeed it
I
Sprint Boots
buy only if you plan to build movespeed/box farm
II
Intensifying Magazine
helps with damage early - mid game, helps with objective damage, sell later
PC Benchmark Vyper Build
IV
Active
Vampiric Burst
rush this after getting bullet lifesteal, enough bullet lifesteal to mend the healing reduction blood tribute gives, also fire rate
II
Active
Split Shot
OPTIONAL!!! PC Benchmark Vyper Build! works well in team fights, lags their game... also works very well with ricochet

IV
Glass Cannon
more damage option if also positive k/d
IV
Lucky Shot
more damage option, pick either lucky shot or glass cannon (or both if youre rich lol)

Ricochet
split shot gets max stacks easily, more fire rate, venom procs on every1, lifesteal on every1
III
Hunter's Aura
if youre taking a lot of 1v1s/looking for quick picks
IV
Siphon Bullets
if the fights are much longer than they should be get this
COULD use
III
Active
Blood Tribute
(if you need more active slots dont buy this)fire rate, debuff resist, and move speed are incredibly useful (when you turn this on you can always parry abrams after shoulder charge among other things)
II
Enduring Speed
mooove speeeed
II
Active
Fleetfoot
makes the build very active heavy (sell split shot if needing slots) but keeps vyper very mobile late game without having to spend too much stamina
III
Veil Walker
sustain when nothing is happening on map, movespeed, very useful
buy depending on game state (i try to have the items youd most likely see yourself needing in the front)bgb
III
Counterspell
also VERY useful
III
Active
Debuff Remover
VERY useful
III
