Vampirism

Back to Basics massively boosts Q damage — paired with other damage amp hexes, Q hits like a truck.

Graves's autos on the same target don't reset Don't Blink charging — every auto carries the on-hit; Stormrazor extends range.

Convert Graves's massive AP into bonus physical on-hit via Marksmage. His autos fire 4 pellets, each triggering independently — one auto = +300% AP. Late-game with Ruined King pellets become 6 for 4.5x AP scaling. Only viable when first hex is Marksmage; otherwise pure AD outperforms. Bonus damage is physical, so Black Cleaver is core late.

Crit build deals huge damage — lifesteal heals you to full through Grievous Wounds in two bites.

Drop Hubris/Liandry's tradition — go crit + armor pen. Use Collector + IE + Jeweled Gauntlet from Mayhem hexes to max Q/R damage for instant kills. Skip Hubris — Viego doesn't get the kill credit after possessing. Better burst for instant kills vs long-range comps.

Bel'Veth's Q and W are AoE — multi-hits cut multiple CDs, making QWE basically zero-CD. Infinite QW knockup.

Forge: omnivamp > AS > armor pen > AD > MS.

Huge MS and heal/shield uptime.

Hexes are flexible. New boots give more shield; swap Mortal Reminder for Serpent's Fang.

Ascend.

Crit Missile without Vulnerable.

Briar with max crit damage hits hard, which means more lifesteal; stack omnivamp around full-crit goal. Counterintuitive tips: do NOT pick Slow and Steady (Prismatic = Aim); do NOT build boots, Liandry's, or Collector (only build Collector vs full-squishy or full-backline; if there are 2+ bruisers, skip it unless you have Upgrade Collector). Without lifesteal hex, prioritize crit hex — items only give 75% crit cap; otherwise pick Triple-Stack Dragon synergies to amp Hubris. If under crit cap, forge crit. With Mystic Punch, skip Navori; otherwise 99% of matches need it for full uptime W and Q. Master long-range WQ snipes (don't underestimate — range matches J4 EQ).

Nothing.

Crit + on-hit endless E. Double Tap + Tap Dancer — once crit-capped, E stacks Tap Dancer; faster AS = more spins = infinite E. Add Slow and Steady AS-to-AD, throw in any lifesteal hex, you're invincible.

Mandatory: Vulnerable + Executioner. With Bork, jump anyone — they die; no front-line concept, squishies vaporized. Hexes must have Vulnerable + Executioner; flex rest. Back to Basics and Clown College are huge prismatic upgrades; gold Upgrade Infinity Edge / Vampirism / Transmute Chaos / Soul Siphon all great; silver Adapt / Upgrade Collector / Big Hits / Brute Force / Bloodlust are also solid. Items: Hubris start, then Bork, then Death's Dance, pick from Liandry's / Black Cleaver / Eclipse / Bloodthirster.

Jeweled Gauntlet + Upgrade Infinity Edge. R straight into the pile.

Red Kayn — pure burst.

Immortal bloodlust bull.

Decent sustain — solid all-around augment. Has a bug though: if you take damage during R's brief vanish and die, the clone spawns at 0 HP. It can't be killed but still attacks. If enemies have infinite-stacking augments or Heartsteel, the clone becomes a free punching bag. If the clone picks up a healing relic, it gains HP and becomes killable again. Double-edged — use cautiously.
