How Siphon Bullets is performing now
General weapon scaling
Siphon Bullets is a vitality item in Deadlock.
Siphon Bullets functions as general weapon scaling within the Vitality shop. The strategic value is converting reliable weapon contact into a stronger damage breakpoint. Because it is a late-build investment, the right comparison is the fight pattern it unlocks versus the other purchases that the same 6,400 souls could complete.
When Siphon Bullets belongs in the build
- Weapon damage is a primary part of your contribution rather than incidental chip damage.
- You can maintain line of sight and safely take enough shots to use the investment.
- The purchase arrives before the enemy's next defensive breakpoint.
- Abilities, utility, or survival determine your fights more than weapon contact.
- Enemy positioning denies sustained line of sight.
- A matchup-specific counter item would prevent more damage than another offensive purchase creates.
