Silencer Silencer +12% Spirit Resist -25% Spirit Damage Reduction +2.5s Silence Duration +6s Debuff Duration +10s Immunity Duration Documented Bullets build toward a Silence and, in the meantime, cut the target's outgoing Spirit Damage.

Watch out: Self-only; cannot be cast on allies

Dispel Magic Dispel Magic +45s Cooldown +10% Spirit Resist +3s Buff Duration +250 HP Healed On Activate Documented Purges every non-ultimate debuff currently on you and, if it removed anything, heals you and grants move speed. It is the main hard cleanse in the game.

45s cooldown; 250 heal; +2m Move Speed for 3s; +10% Spirit Resist
Watch out: Cannot be used while stunned or asleep
Spirit Resilience Spirit Resilience +30% Spirit Resist +3 Out of Combat Regen Documented The spirit-damage counterpart to

Spellbreaker Spellbreaker +9s Cooldown +18% Spirit Resist +25% Debuff Resist +175 Damage Threshold +65% Spirit Damage Reduction +90 Bonus Health Documented Combines strong Spirit Resist and debuff resist with a passive that heavily blunts the next large hit of Spirit Damage you take.
Buy when: 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.
+18% Spirit Resist, +25% Debuff Resist, +90 Bonus Health; 65% reduction on a single spirit hit above a 175 damage threshold, 9s cooldown
Watch out: Now builds from Debuff Reducer as of 30 Jan 2026
Witchmail Witchmail +1s Cooldown +14 Spirit Power +22% Spirit Resist +4s Cooldown Reduction per Hit +7% Ability Cooldown Reduction +75 Damage Threshold Documented Strong Spirit Resist, and every heavy hit of enemy Spirit Damage refunds one of your ability cooldowns — it turns being focused by a caster into extra uptime.
Buy when: Buy on an ability-reliant hero who is being targeted by enemy casters — the more they hit you, the more you cast.
+22% Spirit Resist, +14 Spirit Power; -4s off a random ability on cooldown per hit above a 75 damage threshold, 1s internal cooldown

Escalating Exposure Escalating Exposure +12s Duration +0.7s Max Frequency +4.5% Spirit Amp per Stack +17% Spirit Resist +12 Max Stacks Documented Your Spirit Damage stacks an amplifier on the target so each subsequent ability hits harder, and it also strips their Spirit Resist.
