12/21 update: Minor change to build order and back to T3 bolt rush AP order.
Max whatever you feel is best at 29k all 3 choices are viable.
Feel free to ask me any questions on the Sinclair discord @RAIGEKI
4.8 spirit invest is nerfed so I dont think its worth straight rushing anymore. Gun items let us clear the wave faster and makes lane significantly easier. Play greedy and try not to rotate too much until you have 7.7k T3 bolt spike.


I
Balles antimonstres
Our level 1 gun dps is pathetic so this lets us kill troopers easier and not get constantly pushed into


I
Active
Rite de guérison
Best lane sustain and builds into nova, buy it when you or your lane partner needs it.


I
Charge bonus
Try to save your bolt charges for when you drop assistant until you have T2 bolt.


II
Balles ouvrantes
best 1600 gun imo, gives spirit and lets us kill troopers very fast to keep wave prio


I
Esprit bonus
Time to finally build spirit items


I
Imbue [E]
Expansion mystique
Makes bolts easier to hit and enables you to farm multiple creeps in a camp with them.


III
Recharge rapide
We buy this here to time it with T3 bolt. Time to one shot people.


III
Active
Sacrifice rituel
Still a busted item and gives ability range. If you're playing active with your team at this point you can delay this and buy the greens instead.
Usually this order. Can switch out greens for whatever you like based on preference / enemy heroes. Play behind your team as we are not nearly as mobile as before.


II
Active
Sentinelle gardienne
Ability range is the best stat, can upgrade this into DB later if the game calls for it. Can switch this out for Healbane / Reactive if the game calls for it.


III
Active
Nova curative
Can switch this out for warp stone or veil walker based on the game. I like this item a lot for the backliner nuking support playstyle.


III
Imbue [E]
Regain de puissance
Huge damage spike


III
Récupération supérieure
More of our op buttons


III
Expansion supérieure
With this we are up to 53% ability range when cultist is active. Basically makes any ult you steal insane as well as much easier to land rabbits and bolts.


II
Esprit amélioré
spirit good


IV
Profusion spirituelle
Huge damage increase to everything. We don't need more damage after this.
Read annotations and buy off vibes


III
Prolongation supérieure
Really strong for rabbit, items, and most ults you steal.


IV
Récupération transcendante
Don't like getting this until we have full actives.


IV
Imbue [E]
Active
Éclat d'écho
Always broken with max rabbit.


IV
Active
Fléau
Can throw on your beefiest gorilla against spirit heavy lineups. With greater expansion and sup duration this item is crazy.


IV
Active
Tapis volant
Yoshi plz buff this item I beg you. The movespeed stacking nerf basically made it so we can't combine this with any other movespeed items :(


IV
Active
Protection divine
Good if getting owned by pocket / drifter / ivy ult. Also good to counter enemy curses on your teammates.


IV
Kevlar de l'augure
Just a solid item, I rarely buy this but its never a bad choice


III
Active
Pyroalchimie
Really good with how much ability range we have. If you have a ton of gun damage on your team this amplifies it a lot.


III
Antichar
only affects 1 bolt out of the 50 you throw per fight.


IV
Imbue [E]
Réverbération mystique
Extremely overpriced for how much damage we get from it. stand 4 meters behind your assistant when throwing bolts and you can get double reverb procs on your bolts.


IV
Brulure spirituelle
If you need antiheal buy decay / healbane. This item is terrible ever since they made it go on CD from creeps.


II
Châtiment curatif
Buy over enchanters if have a bunch of big chungus


II
Protection d'urgence
Even with the CD nerf this is still really good for heroes that scale lots of spirit like Sinclair. Good against abrams / bebop / haze / paradox


III
Active
Cuir blindé
Best anti gun hero item on this hero and often necessary to use seven and warden ults properly. Now that capacitor is nerfed this item is very good.


III
Active
Pierre de distorsion
Good escape / mobility tool, really good to enable ults like dynamo / warden


III
Sentinelle du voile
Still really good, if you're playing around ult steals a lot this makes it easier to get whatever you want. Also makes ratting walkers easier


II
Active
Malédiction de ralentissement
Good against the heroes that are hardest to hit with bolt and our worst matchup (calico)


III
Active
Décomposition
Good against tanky cores like geist and shiv


III
Active
Malédiction désarmante
Absurdly strong vs gun heavy lineups.


III
Active
Coup d'enclume
If vindicta / gt is popping off this is good


IV
Active
Malédiction
The best answer in the game to wraith and seven. I don't really buy it for anyone else.
