Swap Glad Shield for Asclepius and Pestilence for either Spectral or Binding

These builds need some work, IMO.
  • "Main Build": Assumed for Mid or general mage in non-Conquest modes. Overcapped on CDR. Warlock's can be okay but typically would go with other items. Alternative options you can consider would include Doom Orb for the zoomies, or Book of Thoth for the high power and mana.

    Chronos, while great for the increased CDR, is not suggested. Typically stick with 30% CDR end build w/ Pendulum + keeping Deso.

    Suggest dropping Iso, though situationally it might be okay if enemy has shields.

    Other alt items to consider include Spear of the Magus (for the bonus damage and % pen, not the lifesteal), Last Gasp maybe (interesting passive power boost potential and has some health that you liked Warlock's for...). Don't know if Rod of Asclepius is viable but might be another consideration.

  • "Solo Build": I can't comment too much on the Solo build, though I feel that multiple items here aren't really optimal.

    Blood-Soaked Shroud: I would choose a different starter. Probably either Sands or Gem, depending on what other CDR items you're considering through the rest of the build. That said, why would you choose a starter with a main component (lifesteal) that is likely going to be automatically countered because you're Aphro? The passive will be countered as well, and with only 2 damaging abilities, you're getting less out of it than other gods.

    Abyssal Stone might be interesting but the effect feels a bit niche / situational in effectiveness. I won't rule it out but it's not giving you CDR or directly helping your teammates outside of potentially lessening damage in an elongated teamfight. At least you don't need to be right on the enemy god to apply it, as you can do a long distance 2 to apply the effect.

    Gladiator's Shield isn't a good choice. Only 2 of your 4 abilities deal damage, and it's technically a selfish item to get a bit more damage out. Aphro's entire kit screams teammate cooperation and you could choose other items that are going to give your teammates some added benefit. I feel the choice of this item shows that her kit isn't being fully understood here.

    Fae-Blessed Hoops also feels niche. Yes, the function is meant for healers, and yes it has some good general stats including CDR, but the passive is funky and has been nerfed to the point where I don't know how viable it is.

    Items here that can/should be considered include Divine Ruin (for easily applied anti-heal), Shogun's Kusari later-game if your Supp doesn't pick it up for higher team DPS, Asclep again, maybe Lotus Sickle. Maybe some other Solo mains could chime in about functional items for her.

  • "Support": Embrace is good. Thebes is good. Regrowth is functional though in a support role I don't think it's necessary. Again probably wouldn't get Fae though that's me. Definitely wouldn't get Glad Shield in Supp. Pest is fine though if you can pull it off with one non-tank item I'd still consider Divine for the higher anti-heal effect. Again, Shogun's should be considered here, Asclep, Lotus, maybe Spirit Robe? Spectral Armor also if facing lots of crits.

  • Relics: For Mid / damage, in almost all situations I'd probably just stay safe and pick Beads + Aegis. Blink is an interesting one and with her being pretty OP right now it could be fun, but as general use, I wouldn't recommend because it won't hold up as well once she sees some nerfs. And if you get Blink, I'm just curious why you're not also considering Polynomicon as an item option?

    For the tank builds, Shell is good. I get the reason for Cloak, but not sure I'd get it since the healing nerfs.

Love your build but why do you prefer warlocks staff to book of thoth?

Thank you ! And to answer your question, I prefer warlock cause it provides mana + health which is good for aphro who relies on mana a lot especially since it’s a lot of mana and a bit of health that gives her a nice boost ! However, Thoth is still good but it doesn’t have pen like warlock either way both items are still really good !

something about my build I forgot to mention is that you should always keep chrono’s and desolation together ! Gem of isolation should be the one item swapped unless ur gonna run chronos then you can use soul reaver instead of tahuti!
