15 items

Restorative Locket Buy against ability-spam comps that poke constantly — the more they cast, the bigger your heal. Watch out: Passive abilities and item passives do not generate stacks
Spirit Lifesteal Buy on ability carries who want to trade repeatedly without recalling.
Spirit Sap Buy against an enemy spellcaster: it lowers their damage and raises yours against them at the same time.
Spirit Shielding Buy against spellcaster burst combos — it absorbs the opening spike and hardens you for the follow-up. Watch out: Self-only; cannot be cast on allies

Silence Wave Buy to cut off enemy ability combos in a teamfight, or to Silence a channelling ultimate hero before they start — it will not cancel one already being channelled. Watch out: Silence does not interrupt channelling abilities, so it will not cancel an ultimate that is already being channelled
Spirit Resilience Buy when enemy ability damage is the main thing killing you.
Spirit Snatch Buy on melee-capable heroes fighting enemy casters up close.

Cursed Relic Buy to shut down one enemy carry or to cancel a game-deciding ultimate outright. Watch out: Voice lines still refer to the old name Curse
Escalating Exposure Buy on high-frequency Spirit Damage heroes to melt durable targets over a sustained fight. Watch out: The amplified damage is a separate instance applied after the original spirit damage
Focus Lens Buy to take one enemy caster out of the fight — it silences them for four and a half seconds. Watch out: Damage dealt to a barrier on the target counts toward the banked damage (fixed 30 Oct 2026)
Inhibitor Buy on a gun hero when one enemy is both out-damaging and out-healing your team — it hits both problems at once. Watch out: The damage penalty does not apply to spirit damage from an enemy with Unstoppable active; the healing reduction always applies
Scourge Buy on supports to harden a focused ally against a caster team while adding pressure damage.
Silencer Buy when an enemy spellcaster is the main damage threat and you can land sustained bullets on them. Watch out: Silence does not apply to a target with Unstoppable active
Spellbreaker The go-to answer to a spellcaster who deletes you with one big ability — it caps the spike and shortens their stuns at the same time. Watch out: Now builds from Debuff Reducer as of 30 Jan 2026
Witchmail Buy on an ability-reliant hero who is being targeted by enemy casters — the more they hit you, the more you cast. Watch out: Only selects from abilities currently on cooldown
