I

Vol de vie mêlée

Activates on Bashdown. Heavy melee minion waves to keep the cooldown short. Feel free to sell this first.

I

Balles antimonstres

Helps you kill all NPCs faster to gain wave prio and take jungle faster. Take less chip damage from all NPCs. Super good item.

I

Tir rapproché

Melee resist and bonus damage against close range targets. Upgrades into Point Blank which is a very strong item for Billy.

I

Frappe spirituelle

Nice burst damage early on that builds into the lovely lovely Spirit Snatch.

II

Charge brute

Makes heavy melees good. When active this doubles your Blasted HP gain, so ALWAYS pop Blasted first now.

III

Frappe fortifiante

Definitely way weaker, especially early on. Works well with Colossus. Much later provides nice relevant bursts.

II

Vitesse persistante

Must have item to stay in your enemies' face, better than Sprint Boots as it improves your move speed instead of sprint speed.

II

Balles ralentissantes

Feels good to keep targets right next you. Dash distance reduction gets more and more important the better your opponent is.

I

Active

Rite de guérison

Actually OP item. Use this inbetween waves and hit boxes, take sinners, or take camps. Can be bought later if you're omega pooping on the enemy lane (would still buy anyway though).

I

Bonus de régénération

Very solid green item, always worth taking if you're taking more damage than you'd like.

I

Bonus de PV

Good for surviving big bursts more. Kind of emulates the health difference we had with early Lifestrike. Upgrades into Colossus in late game.

I

Réfutation

For the naughty laners who like to melee you a lot. Don't just spam it like a bot, that will get you killed.

II

Protection d'urgence

Super clutch against cc from Haze, Paige, Mo & Krill, etc. Activates when hyperlined or parried as well.

II

Bouclier spirituel

Nerfed, but still good. Now not the answer to everything but still worth considering.

III

Razzia spirituelle

Still an insane item, arguably even better on Billy now once Bashdown reaches Lv3. Helps you reach bigger burst with Bashdown.

II

Balles perforantes

Resist, shred, and gets you 4.8k spirit. Synergizes well with Torment Pulse.

III

Résilience spirituelle

Spirit damage feels pretty prevalent as a frontliner right now, so I personally take Spirit Resilience at some point in the game. Very strong effect that pairs well with more spirit resist or Frenzy.

II

Imbue [E]

Prolongation

Blasted is SUPER important this patch and you're way less OP without it active. Duration Extender also returns Blasted jungling to its former glory.

III

Active

Aura héroïque

Bullet resist for everyone around you, move speed, fire rate, and winions all in one. Even better if you have a teammate with summons (Graves or McGinnis).

III

Défense renforcée

Great stat increases + bullet resist that scales pretty high and lasts a long time. Has no fall-off range so you can shoot targets from afar to get your resist stacks early.

II

Veste de combat

Nice bullet resist and damage output increase.

III

Active

Pierre de distorsion

Mobility to get in and/or out paired with a huge resist buff.

III

Résilience balistique

More useful now than pre-November patch. Fat resist bonus when low.

IV

Armure de plates

Very good item against really strong gun characters when you already have some bullet resist.

III

Active

Offrande sanglante

Gives spirit resist, fire rate, and FAT debuff resist. Definitely pick into hard CC.

II

Active

Souffle glacial

Gives spirit resist and is lowkey a little OP. Strong early damage that scales and slows for a long duration. Effectively a 5th ability. Do not sleep on this item.

III

Expansion supérieure

Synergizes with all your Bashdown and Chain Gang very well and also gives you spirit resist on top.

II

Emblème enchanteur

Very good spirit power (+ resist) increase item. Spirit power not only increases your damage but also your Blasted bonus HP scaling.

III

Active

Dissipateur de magie

Can be used to clear debuffs and curses like Warden's Binding Word or Vindicta's Stake. New spirit resist makes it even better into characters like Infernus.

IV

Brise-magie

Not only helps you eat large spirit damage chunks but gives base spirit and debuff resist too.

II

Atténuateur d'effets négatifs

Big into cc heavy teams, works well with Reactive Barrier and upgrades into Spellbreaker or Unstoppable.

III

Active

Cuir blindé

Haze ult build is very popular right now but Metal Skin will help you avoid being insta-deleted.

III

Contresort

Super good item, highly recommend against characters who rely on their abilities. Can also parry walker stomp to proc a free heal and stat bonus.

IV

Active

Protection divine

If you're too grandpa to Counterspell Affliction in time (me) this item will be a very expensive band-aid to your poor reaction time.

IV

Active

Intouchable

With everyone super strong right now CC is king more than ever. Look at the enemy team comp and determine if you need to survive one million stuns with Unstoppable.

II

Active

Malédiction de ralentissement

Better item now. Silences movement abilities, so it's very good for shutting down characters who rely on them like Lash, Mina, or Infernus.

II

Sabotage

Very helpful when played into characters that rely on their m1.

III

Active

Coup d'enclume

Like Slowing Hex, kind of OP, lets you get picks easier and shuts down people in the sky.

III

Active

Onde de silence

Fallen from grace since last patch but still a silence which proves useful when ambushing enemies.

IV

Active

Relique maudite

Another item to shutdown carries with, boasting even more debuffs and clearing all buffs.

III

À bout portant

Huge damage increase up close, which is where all your fights will be. Gives a slow effect as well to help you stay on top of your target.

IV

Active

Colosse

Fat HP increase + insane resists and more weapon damage. Very good tank item. Now gives bonus melee damage when active, which is nice.

IV

Frénésie

Very good item to resist incoming spirit damage and retaliate with bonus stats. In primarily spirit comps, pair with Spirit Resilience for 75% resist.

IV

Poings écrasants

Only makes sense to invest in more utility since we have Melee Charge. The stun can be really useful for interrupting channels.

II

Châtiment curatif

Cheap antiheal and heals on kill. Great for ganking playstyle.

IV

Inhibiteur

Like Silencer, this item works with Bashdown, so you can affect multiple people at once. Gives a HUGE damage bonus and really good bonus health too. Destroy Abrams.

III

Balles toxiques

Strong antiheal and percent health bleed. Gives no stat bonuses which kind of sucks but this item is still good.

III

Active

Décomposition

50% heal reduction is pretty large and also bleeds 30% of someone's health for its duration. Gives bonus spirit power and health which are very nice.

III

Onde de tourment

A lot of DPS by being near people, usually bought in mid-game but I personally don't prioritize spirit damage as much on this character.

IV

Active

Toile tourbillonnante

Insane CC item. Pairs really well with Bashdown and Chain Gang. With Vortex Web you dictate the teamfight.

IV

Profusion spirituelle

If you're really agead or don't have any particular item you need to buy scaling your Blasted even further is pretty big.

IV

Implacable

Great tank item to compliment bullet resists when going against multiple gun builds.

IV

Active

Pulsion vampirique

Less healing than Leech passively but when active component is used it heals you by over 1000. With Frenzy pop Vampiric Burst below 50% HP to maximize fire rate and healing.

IV

Balles drainantes

Testing, but siphon bullets might be super back.

IV

Brise-tête

Super easy to activate shred for both damage types + antiheal. Super necessary into high resistance frontliners like Yamato, Abrams, Victor, etc.

IV

Sourdine

Lowers enemy spirit damage output, and silences them. It builds up stacks on your Bashdown so you can hit multiple people with it at once. Very good.

II

Chargeur titanesque

Even more ammo and gun damage. Extra ammo is important because it scales our melee ammo replenish and lets us mix up our melee mindgames.

III

Tirs lestés

Builds from Slowing Bullets and gives a large weapon damage increase. Makes it extremely hard to get away from you. Best into characters dashing a lot.

III

Imbue [E]

Enchantement balistique

This item is INSANE damage. Cultist Sacrifice is less necessary with how squishy jungle is now, and this grants you the range and damage aspect but better early on.

IV

Active

Condensateur

Higher DPS and hard movement lock on whoever you hit. Very easy to hit targets with the active component after Rising Ram or Bashdown. Useful for slippery targets.

II

Traqueur

Not terrible but the bleed doesn't seem to have much of a purpose in mid-game still after its rework.

II

Tirs entêtants

Cheap and easy bullet resist shred.

III

Active

Pyroalchimie

Strong for ult usage and mid-boss fights. Bashdown and Rising Ram soft cc can be used to force people to stay in the fire.

III

Aura prédatrice

Big bullet resist shred on alone targets, and bullet resist shred around people in general.
