2. 2

   Optional14,400 Souls

   Misc - MidGame.

   1. Spirit ShieldingSpirit damage heroes are really strong in the mid game. ||| In the lane, I think I only do it against Geist.

   3. ›Spirit ShredderSSB+Mystic Vuln. = 15% shred. With Crow, it increases to 20%/27% shred.
   4. ›CounterspellWe love Counterspell. Have you cursed a main Lash today?? Against many telegraphed skills.

4. 4

   Optional60,800 Souls

   Other Late Game options. Ballistic options - After Escalating.

   1. Diviner's KevlarSurvivability. Lots of shield, good spirit power. I'm a fan of Basururu!!
   2. ›Superior Cooldown
   3. ›Superior DurationA good timing to buy would be after the Burn OR when maximizing the Crow. (After the Escalating +/-)
   4. ›SpellbreakerAgainst SPIRIT BURST.
   5. ›Transcendent CooldownIf you needed to build a lot of active items, especially eShift, Remover or Unstoppable.
   6. ›Surge of PowerMore damage on the ult. Tankbuster is good too.
   7. ›Spiritual OverflowIf you do this, consider buying a Titanic Mag AFTER the item. |||| You can swap the Swift Striker for Overflow if you run out of slots.
   8. ›InhibitorReplaces Healbane or Suppressor at the end of the game. ||| Gives the ballistic damage of a late game investment gun. One of the best items in the patch.
   9. ›LeechBetter in builds with Overflow!!
   10. ›Crippling HeadshotShred+Antiheal. Bringing more utility to the team in the Late.
   11. ›SilencerAgainst teams that are practically full spirit. With Escalating, you get 30%+ resist. It's not worth stacking more than that. Better to "debuff" the opponent!!
