Author's notes

Inspired by Arcturox on YT, but with my own tweaks to the setup (MAGIC CARPET YEAAAH) This build is all about having insane movement and saving potential, super fun but probably wouldn't use in Ascendant +

1. 1
  Guardian Ward
  Get this after rescue beam if you plan to go divine barrier as your flex item. The tab should be on the top right if you wanna have a gander.
2. 2
  Debuff Reducer
  If you want to go unstoppable as your flex item, you can buy this after rescue beam if against a lot of debuffs, if not then just get this after cheat death.

1. 1
  Compress Cooldown
  More cube spam is good.
2. 2
  Duration Extender
  More cube time is good.
3. 3
  Magic Carpet
  Low grav is amazing for punch movement, use rescue beam right before the summon finishes to taxi your teammates out of danger OR if solo escaping, self cast beam during the summon.

1. 1
  Unstoppable

  Grab this if you want insane movement, you can become practically untouchable if you know viscous movement.
3. 3
