Grey Talon, one of the couple of heroes that can sustain the landing stage and harass the opponents. One of its strongest abilities is the Charged shot that fires a green arrow that pretty much demolishes the opponents. The ability scales with spirit upgrades and weapon damage, and can become very painful for the enemy team, if played properly, of course.
But we’re here for the item build, so let’s have a look which one of the available items in the game is the best to choose from.
Early Game / Laning Stage
The items below, left to right, can be acquired in that particular order. If you’re fine during the landing stage, you can ignore Headshot Booster. Keep in mind that Extra Charge is mandatory, since you can empower your Charged shot.
