Mercurial Magnum

only buy if you're upgrading from QSR
Healing Tempo
Built from Healing Booster
could replace slowing bullets/weighted shots with it for more spirit shred alongside mystic vuln but I still have my doubts with this item, could be good with a spirit heavy comp
Weighted Shots
feeling like this is better as an optional upgrade for now
Fleetfoot
can replace slowing bullets. decent gun damage and makes you speedier
Recharging Rush
trying out this item again since QSR is in the build now
Ballistic Enchantment
as much as I like this item, it ends up having very little impact due to ivy's gun scaling not being as good, it's slotted aside as an optional buy instead of greater expansion for now
Duration Extender
Improved Spirit
Mystic Expansion
builds into BE now which is pretty cool!
