Also known as the Paper Paige 64 build. Focuses on you slapping barriers on your buddies and generally just sort of existing while other people play the game for you. Baa.
I
Active
Rite de guérison
Buy this if your lane buddy is stupid (read: doesn't carry you).
I
Balles véloces
It's ridiculous trying to secure souls... But maybe you'll get used to it?
I
Charge bonus
Gotta clear waves and camps somehow. What? PLAYER damage? Pfft.
The least fun part of support!
II
Active
Sentinelle gardienne
Put barriers on your barriers!
I
Bonus d'endurance
Paige is FAT. Buy this early if your two stamina bars are getting you killed.
I
Bottes de course
SHE'S SO FAT.
You should get a counter item instead of Stamina Mastery, usually.
III
Trophée de chasse
It sort of works on Paige... But only because your abilities have massive ranges.
III
Maitrise d'endurance
This is a LUXURY. If an enemy is already giving you trouble, buy a counter instead.
II
Imprégner
Récupération comprimée
More barrier uptime means more pain for the enemy.
IV
Active
Protection divine
20 second cooldown when you use it on a friend!? Say no more! Try to avoid using this selfishly.
IV
Récupération transcendante
Four active items and four abilities to spam means you want all the cooldown you can get.
Buy at least one.
IV
Active
Fléau
You're going to be hanging around one of your stupid teammates, anyway.
IV
Active
Malédiction
For the support who can't take it anymore.
IV
Active
Toile tourbillonnante
Mostly useful towards the end of the game where enemies group up. Land group-wide 3's!
IV
Active
Refuge céleste
You can active and deactivate this immediately for a run speed buff.
Help me, team!
I
Imprégner
Expansion mystique
This is only here so it doesn't bug you about what ability you wanna put this on.
III
Expansion supérieure
Lets you stay REEEAAAL far back, as you tend to do.
II
Imprégner
Prolongation
Because it's not enough they're slowed and stunned from a mile away. It also has a last a year, too.
III
Prolongation supérieure
Why is this game still going on?
Explanation in annotations.
III
Active
Faisceau de détresse
Your role is mostly preventative, and your barrier is better for saves. Still, works good as a Bebop and Lash counter.
III
Contresort
You're very vulnerable to pick abilities. This lets you get a second chance. But there might be a better active item to counter your problems.
III
Sentinelle du voile
This is really nice to let you zip around between lanes quick without running into trouble. Only issue is the price for such a pretty minor convenience.
Make sure the enemy targets you even more! Slowing Hex and Decay are my go-to's.
I
Réfutation
Oops! All melee!
II
Protection d'urgence
It's okay in laning.
II
Active
Pied plume
Okay, it's less a counter and more a mobility tool.
II
Active
Malédiction de ralentissement
Very character-dependent item. Look up what it silences, but generally it's Shiv, Calico, and Lash. Make sure to upgrade to Vortex Web for maximum pain.
III
Active
Coup d'enclume
Pairs beautifully with your 3 for an assured stun. Also good for fliers like Vindicta.
III
Active
Décomposition
Look, I can do damage, too! Slap this onto tanks like Abrams or healers like Kelvin. Or people you just don't like.
III
Active
Malédiction désarmante
Sometimes you'll get flanked by bullet heroes. This makes you at least get the chance to run away.
III
Active
Onde de silence
If your enemies dive or your teammates pull them in, it's handy!
III
Active
Pyroalchimie
If you find it's easy to land for 3, this is the most sensible option to compliment that.
II
Atténuateur d'effets négatifs
It's so you can get Debuff Remover.
III
Active
Dissipateur d'effets négatifs
GET IT OFF ME
III
Récupération supérieure
What, you DON'T like pushing buttons?
For minimal suffering.
III
Résilience balistique
Gun meta. My favorite.
III
Résilience spirituelle
Spirit meta, just like the good ol' days.
IV
Brise-magie
Ehh, nah, I don't feel like taking damage.
IV
Armure de plates
Are your teammates helping you or what?
For a slightly more flavorful experience.
II
Emblème enchanteur
It ain't bad, but if you need the spirit resist on it, you are most likely dead, and you buy Compress Cooldown pretty early.
II
Amplisoins
You generally shouldn't need this. But if you're getting a lot of mileage out of playing healer, might as well.
II
Ralentissement mystique
It's okay, but not wonderful. Probably useful in lower rank lobbies where people are clueless.
II
Sabotage
See Mystic Slow.
II
Vulnérabilité mystique
You are NOT hitting people with spirit damage.
II
Balles perforantes
See Mystic Vulnerability, except for your useless gun.
I
Balles antimonstres
It's okay, but there's better ways to clear waves and you generally stay away from objectives.
Other support builds: Speed-E-Mo Dynamo
I mean, it's pretty obvious. Hang back, abuse your massive range, farm assists, repeat. You generally want to leave neutral creeps for teammates unless you have the opportunity to steal it from enemies. Paige is probably the best (and maybe only decent) candidate for Trophy Collector because you're horrible at doing anything else besides getting assists. You want to hang around pushing up waves and joining in on any early game fights to get your free assist in. When you get Transcendent Cooldown, it's just about when wave clearing becomes less of your designated role as teamfights become more common. Make yourself useful and zip between lanes, but don't go for a push unless you have a buddy with you or all the enemies are showing up on the map. You want to abuse your range as hard as you can, really push the limits on how far back you can go and still involve yourself. Oh yeah, and in case it isn't obvious, your 2 is for pushes, and your Divine Barrier is for saves. Once your abilities are on cooldown, you lose relevance, so don't be afraid to run from a fight that looks bad.
If I see you with any of these, I WILL find you and give you a wedgie.
III
Active
Nova curative
You aren't going to be anywhere near your teammates to use this. It's just a waste.
I
Esprit bonus
You get just a sliver more health on your shield. It doesn't make a difference, really.
IV
Parchemin de foudre
This is a joke, right? Just buy Refresher at that point.
IV
Trompe-la-mort
This would be okay, but there's not much point in prolonging your life if you're on cooldown.
IV
Cuirasse ensorcelée
I mostly applaud you for the audacity.
II
Active
Tir divisé
Tried it, don't like it. Way too expensive just for the niche use of clearing waves or shooting spitballs at enemies.
II
Châtiment curatif
If you need to reduce somebody's healing, Decay is a better pick.
III
Active
Sacrifice rituel
I get it. You don't like Trophy Collector. But now you're taking farm from the people who matter and wasting time grinding camps instead of being active.
I
Explose-tête
You can't headshot, idiot.
III
Active
Aura héroïque
Would be wonderful if not for the fact you aren't going to be mixed in with your teammates.
III
Fortitude
For $3200, it's a big investment when you're intended to be pretty safe and, furthermore, expendable.
