When to Buy
- Purchase in the late game on heroes who can reliably spam abilities or active items to maintain high stacks.
- Excellent for increasing sustained DPS in extended team fights where you have time to ramp up the buff.
- Strong choice when you have built multiple active items, as using them also triggers the passive.
Synergies
- Pocket: His kit revolves around frequent ability usage and low cooldowns, allowing him to quickly reach maximum stacks for high weapon damage.
- Wraith: Synergizes perfectly with her playstyle of weaving card throws and teleports between weapon attacks.
- Viscous: Can easily maintain the buff duration with his spammable abilities, turning him into a more threatening weapon damage dealer.
