II

Емблема чарівника

Overstatted item. Spirit resist, spirit power, regen, cooldown reduction? Good early priority in most lanes.

I

Додатковий дух

FYI: Vyper's movement speed scales with spirit power.

II

Розігрівні набої

I like this in losing lanes or vs close quarters heroes; your goal in lane is to keep your enemies at or below half health so Venom is scary, this helps with that. Also good for farming.

II

Містичний постріл

More spirit burst, on your already-good gun. The more-reliable option. Good in winning lanes or against long-ranged characters who you can poke with this.

I

Містичний вибух

You need to hit two daggers to trigger this now, or trigger it on a decent Venom pop, but it still helps a lot in lane with your poke.

II

Покращений дух

It's more spirit power. What else should I write here?

III

Протитанк

The news of its demise was greatly exaggerated. Still hugely helpful with big venom pops (or bolas), even if it's hard to trigger on dagger now. In losing or farm-heavy lanes, get after Tesla.

III

Електричні кулі

Big farm accelerator and buying it now makes Vyper's gun significantly better earlier to make up for the damage we lost on dagger. You're gonna be shooting more early, and this helps.

I

Бігові чоботи

Nice to have, especially if you're going on box and sinners runs, and the regen is a nice bonus too. Can otherwise wait for Enduring.

II

Стала швидкість

Movespeed good on slippery snake lady, and god do I hate slows. Get early in e.g. a Kelvin lane (may the devil curse his name).

I

Додаткове відновлення

Consistent, good, reliable, friend. I get it most games.

I

Додаткове здоров’я

Get if you're planning on going into Fortitude. Not worth if you're veil walker-ing.

I

Цілющий постріл

Good in most lanes, although can be inconsistent if you're dealing with double long-range poke heroes. The greediest option here; gives gun instead of health investment.

I

Протидія

Vs Viscous or otherwise very punchhappy laners.

I

Дія

Лікувальний обряд

If you have 800 souls and your options are buying healing rite or backing to heal, buy healing rite. Having to leave lane is punishing in this game.

III

Стійкість

Ding dong, the wicked witch is dead, and in its place is an old, reliable friend.

III

Вуальне підсилення

Good god, they nerfed it. Still here for now, but I think Fortitude is just better now (yay!)

IV

Вільний дух

High priority, even if you're itching for more gun-oriented items. Movespeed, scaling for tesla bullets and merc magnum (not to mention your abilities), and did I mention the movement speed?

III

Залпова стрільба

Gaben personally designed this item for Vyper. My dad works at Valve and he told me that. Makes your slides 200% more silly and slippery. Priority pickup for me most games.

II

Насичує

Жвава перезарядка

Not particularly important by itself, but we want it as a component of Merc Magnum, and it's nice for a quick reload.

IV

Насичує

Ртутний маґнум

Crazy, crazy good item. High priority after Boundless. Basically doubles your gun damage AND gives fire rate. Make sure it's always active when you're shooting.

II

Згубне зцілення

If they have anybody with substantial regen who's a problem, this is worth getting, and you have an easy time proccing it now. Otherwise skippable.

III

Духовний розрив

Worth after Merc Magnum and Tesla - I wouldn't buy it before then. You can apply it to petrified enemies - Bola, then shoot them in the head.

IV

Дія

Конденсатор

Low priority upgrade, but not a bad item and the active is underrated. Good if you're slot limited.

IV

Рикошет

It's VERY fun, and can shred teamfights if you happen to catch them all clumped up (and not die in the process). Only pick up in very late game.

IV

Лихоманка

More gun investment, and more movement speed. The MS (and spirit resist) when below 50% can save your skin. Get if you're facing a heavy spirit lineup in the very late game.

IV

Духовне сповнення

I have changed my opinion on this item and think it is good enough to be core, but only as a late game pickup after everything to the left of it. Wouldn't prioritize it.

IV

Скляна гармата

It is a LOT of gun damage. The minus max health is tough, but if it falls on your shoulders to be the gun carry in hyper late game, here it is (and it gives more damage to Merc Magnum, too!)

II

Вампіризм від куль

For building into Leech. Honestly, not that worth it by itself with this build imo.

IV

Кровопивця

Big healing. I prefer it over Vampiric Burst since a big chunk of our damage is spirit.

III

Духовна стійкість

More and more necessary in today's goofy spirit meta.

III

Посилена стійкість

Honestly, this is just a better bullet resilience for Vyper.

IV

Джаґернаут

Shuts down gun carries and upgrades Enduring Speed. Good slot-efficient (albeit expensive) item. I prefer this (+ Escalating) for dealing with heavy gun lineups late game.

II

Дія

Охоронний бар’єр

Surprisingly good, especially if you're having a rough game and are transitioning into a more supportive role. Builds into Divine Barrier too.

III

Протичари

I do not consent to the Bebop bomb.

II

Зменшувач ослаблення

It's okay. If I feel like I need this I usually just straight rush for Remover.

III

Дія

Усувач ослаблення

For your friend who came into this game from League of Legends and is now raging about how many stuns there are in this game. Or you, I guess.

II

Стримувач

Pretty solid if you need to shut down a gun carry early into the game, but late game I'd rather have Juggernaut.

III

Важчі постріли

This is here for the spirit and debuff resistance. A greedier but still good resistance item.

IV

Сифонні кулі

It's solid for more sustain, but not my favorite on Vyper. More of an Ivy item, you know what I mean? Yeah you do.

IV

Дія

Вампірський порив

See Leech.

IV

Дія

Священний бар’єр

Underrated imo, but probably a bit too expensive unless you're really struggling to do dmg and accepting a more supportive role. Then it's a great pickup for you and your team.

II

Реактивний бар’єр

Good against Lash, Haze, etc. in lane. Not great past early-mid game in my opinion - in most cases Debuff Remover is more useful (or straight up Spirit Resilience, or Spellbreaker).

III

Дія

Камінь спотворення

A bit overkill, but it is funny, and it's actually a huge amount of bullet res after blinking.

IV

Лати

If you're getting absolutely shredded by on-hit effects, this is decent. But I still prefer Juggernaut.

IV

Дія

Нестримність

For that MnK that just loves you so much. Deadlock's BKB, for you Dota knowers. Although far less ubitiquous or generally necessary than BKB...

IV

Чаролам

Pretty good into obnoxious spirit burst (e.g. Lash), but only in that situation - otherwise Spirit Res is more consistent and cheaper.

III

Майстерна витривалість

If you want 3 million stamina. Not really worth it, but again, funny.

III

Сяюче відновлення

I would rather have Leech, but this is also a sustain option if you're playing a more pokey, sustained damage role. I was forced to add this here.

III

Дія

Алхімічне полум’я

Spirit power, gun investment and a good active. Throw it on the ground right after Bola to let it ramp up before they awake. Not priority, but if you do pick it up, pick it up early.

II

Дія

Прудкі ноги

The extra slide distance is nice, and if you're slidemaxxing, well here you go.

II

Кінетичний ривок

If you dash jump a lot and need an economy gun upgrade, sure. Good item but not incredible.

II

Підсилений магазин

See Split Shot.

II

Дія

Роздільний постріл

It's really good on gun Vyper, and not bad on hybrid either, but it's not priority for me. It can help make Vyper's spray more consistent in chaotic fights, and great with e.g. Billy ult.

IV

Дія

Прокляття

I HATE this guy and want them to SUFFER. A classic Spirit Vyper item, but a bit pricey for hybrid. The random 20% weapon damage is a surprise, but a welcome one.

III

Чудова зарядка

Feels a bit overkill, cooldowns aren't really a problem outside of bola, but another reasonable upgrade path w/ Transcendent.

IV

Трансцендентна зарядка

Only if you have a bunch of actives.

II

Дія

Гальмівний врок

The actives are all self-explanatory, I feel. You're already a pretty item-hungry character so it feels bad to have to buy these. If you're in a pub and nobody else is doing it though...

III

Дія

Струс

See Slowing Hex.

III

Дія

Хвиля тиші

See Slowing Hex.

III

Насичує

Приплив сили

It's solid, but Merc Magnum and Boundless are just higher priority and if we fill up all the slots with purple there's no room for the orange and green, yknow?

I

Насичує

Містичний засяг

If they're running away too fast before you get the girl juice on them.

III

Великий засяг

A bit overkill, but if you're out of things to upgrade and have Mystic Expansion. Does make your bolas bigger, that's fun.

III

Дія

Лютий транс

The silence is whatever. No stamina usage feels terrible though - albeit sliding from a run is very possible with this build.

III

Токсичні кулі

In theory a tank shredder, but I've always found this item to be a bit underwhelming. Would rather have Tesla Bullets + Healbane, unless you're going against Victor + MnK + Abrams + Billy + Shiv.

IV

Щасливий постріл

I'd rather have Glass Cannon; the consistent weapon damage jives better with Mercurial Magnum; still this is good with our bonkers fire rate.

IV

Дія

Тіньове плетиво

For a funny assassin-ish build. More map mobility, and the ambush bonuses are quite good.

IV

Знемовлювач

Your gun shoots real fast, this can be decent, but again nothing special. Maybe if they're ALL spirit - outgoing damage reduction is quite nice.

IV

Чаростріл

Effect is pretty weak for a tier 4 in my humble opinion, but 60% fire rate and a bit of CD reduction is far from nothing. If you need the reload speed, you're doing something wrong.

II

Зменшувач опору кулям

Better now with the Dagger changes making it easier to proc, and stacks nicely with t2 dagger. Underrated, but a bit of a detour imo.

III

Швидка перезарядка

I REALLY wouldn't get this with the current state of Screwjab Dagger - I don't think the price is worth what you get. Still, if you're desperate for the true dagger-slinging experience, here ya go.
