[UPDATED] Ratgar's Gun Ginnis

Author's notes

Made some adjustments for the recent patch.

Item categories

1. 1Lane

   Author's category · 8 items · Monster & Regen in lane. Abuse Tesla to farm/clear troopers & neutrals very fast & efficiently.

   1. 1

      Monster Rounds

      Buy to clear waves + hp regen and jungle later. Works on Guardians/Walkers/Patron/Shrine/Weakened Patron. Keep until you destroy enough objectives to free a slot or upgrade to CULTIST to keep it.

   2. 2

      Extra Stamina

      Buy during laning phase against Haze or Warden (they remove our stamina). We can sell this later after we already have Fleetfoot + Heroic Aura.

   3. 3

      Tesla Bullets

      Optimal for farming faster, clearing troopers faster and applying Bullet Resist Shredder. Tesla can be sold later when you no longer have slots for bullet resist shredder and this item.

   4. 4

      Quicksilver Reload

      Quick reload for more ammo. The best situations for this is when you are suiciding for Walkers and the reload time of 3 seconds is too long. Active Reload also does the job +buffs, but QsR is instant.

   5. 5

      Kinetic Dash

      Built from Extra Stamina

   6. 6

      Battle Vest

      Buy 1st or 2nd (after Monster) if enemy has 2 HEAVY duo bullet damage in order of priority: Haze, Vyper, Wraith (in lane mostly gun), Warden, Drifter, Billy, Ivy and uncommon spirit hero doing gun

   7. 7

      Fleetfoot

      Shoot without movespeed penalty (this is op). Bullet resist adds up combined w/ other sources for tanking up while being mobile. Pairs insanely well with Heroic Aura.

   8. 8

      Surge of Power

2. 2Win Moreoptional

   Author's category · 1 items

   1. 1

      Cultist Sacrifice

      Built from Monster Rounds

      Buy ~8-12 mins AFTER Tesla. Use on BIG red neutrals. Insane investment item to get ahead later while giving insane stats. TAKES 1 ACTIVE SLOT WHICH MEANS YOU CAN'T BUY 'BLOOD TRIBUTE' (up to you).

3. 3Situational Laneoptional

   Author's category · 7 items · Buy Left to Right -> Sell MR and Enduring if slot locked.

   1. 1

      Titanic Magazine

   2. 2

      Bullet Lifesteal

      Skippable till later b/c you have a heal anyway. Buy Bullet Lifesteal when fighting enemies. Upgrades to Vamp Burst later.

   3. 3

      Enduring Speed

   4. 4

5. 5Anti Lashoptional

   Author's category · 2 items

   1. 1

      Counterspell

      Buy against Lash ult, Wraith ult etc... It works the same way Hazes' 2 maxed does but for spells.

   2. 2

      Ethereal Shift

6. 6Anti Meleeoptional

   Game stage · 5 items

   1. 1

      Mercurial Magnum

      Built from Quicksilver Reload

   2. 2

      Spellbreaker

      Buy when you need 1) Spirit Resist & 2) Debuff Resist and spirit resist & 3) Have a lot of money to spend. Debuff Resist is for annoying things like Curse..

   3. 3

      Crippling Headshot

   4. 4

8. 8Situationaloptional

   Author's category · 3 items

   1. 1

      Metal Skin

   2. 2

      Dispel Magic

      Sometimes necessary to buy against SILENCE, multiple DISARMS or more importantly SPIRIT BURNS which prevent us from healing. We can handle one anti-heal but two or more or spirit burn is bad for us.

   3. 3

      Silencer

      Buy when you have Ricochet and need more crowd control in silence and a passive -25% spirit damage debuff. Very useful utility buy if you have Ricochet.

9. 9Anti-Healoptional

   Author's category · 3 items · Toxic 3rd Item for Fern/Shiv

   1. 1

      Healbane

      Cheap effective anti-heal that can easily be applied by our spells and tesla consistently even if debuff remover'd. Sometimes you'll need at least 2 anti-heal items to deal with big healers.

   2. 2

      Toxic Bullets

      Often needed due to lack of anti heal on team. Pairs well with Healbane for -55% enemy heal reduction for cheap.

   3. 3

      Inhibitor

10. 10Situationaloptional

    Author's category · 18 items · Unstoppable to end the game without interruption. Anti-heal goes thru Unstop.

    1. 1

       Juggernaut

       Built from Enduring Speed

    2. 2

       Slowing Hex

       Buy against enemies who rely on their escape like Wraith's teleport, Calico's slash/ult ,Shivs slice&dice, Lash's grapple or Warp Stone abusers etc... Look up the entire list online.

    3. 3

       Spirit Resilience
