The way it is now the enemy defense scaling is going to **** all over your actual damage per rotation of abilities which will cause you to lose games you shouldnt
If you gonna stack, you gotta build it first (Book of Thoth for instance) than boots, than Poly. After that you get pen and tahuti at the end. You need the early burst and sustain from lifesteal earlier in the game and Spear of Desolation cost way too much for early game thus your ennemies will have advantage on you with cheaper, more efficient builds. And Deso isn't useful at all at that point in the game so, it's just non-sens.
I'm assuming your sentence meant to say:
"You can also use optional items depending on what they have or if you need more poke/utility. If you see the hoes Hel or Artio, buy Divine Ruin; don't even buy boots, just buy this. I'm not making fun of you by correcting your sentence. It's important to have good grammar because your sentence was a bit confusing at first, and I had to reread it a few times.
Technotoad, please correct me if I left anything out, as I am not on mobile right now.
Going by my interpretation of your sentence, I don't think it's a good idea to forsake that +18% movement speed by ditching boots.
The way you word it, it seems like you advocate starting the game with
I would suggest replacing one of your penetration items (
I think
Lastly, is this a build for conquest? Why are you advocating
Otherwise, your guide looks visually good. Please continue to work on it. Looking forward to your edits!
Oh hey Peter! I remember seeing you in a few games. Next time I see you, I'll say hi.

Explanations:
¹"English" is a proper noun and must be capitalized.
²At the end of a sentence, you must insert a space (or two, if you prefer) after the punctuation.
³This (`) is a "backtick". It's used for programming. Contractions are marked with an "apostrophe" (').
⁴"So" is what is known as a "coordinating conjunction". A comma is needed at the end of the word preceding it.
⁵This is a run-on sentence. It can be fixed by separating it into two sentences, inserting a semicolon, or adding a conjunction. I recommend the semicolon in this case.
BTW, well done, Lt. Esq. boogiebass.
It also extends into the words that come out of my mouth. You will basically never hear me actually SAY F***, but I'll say EFFF. Just always been this way. Parents never really swear, and it made me think about it as I was growing up. I have no problem with others doing it, but my control of the actual use of the word (and some other specific words) has served me extremely well as I transitioned to being a parent. My wife has a sailor's mouth, and she had a much more difficult time.
Sorry Techno, I couldn't resist. XD
- Your starter choices are generally fine. I don't think I'd go with
Rangda's Mask, though, because she's not an early game god that can take advantage like others.
Shoes of the Magi is her general movement of choice, at least in Conquest. In teamfight modes where you get to start at level 3 or 5, I might go Focus just to use abilities more often.
Spear of Desolation is a solid item overall. At this point, you have your ult and if you're able to hit it well, you'll get some minor use out of the passive. The base stats are solid in any case, especially combined with Magi. 30 flat pen is going to equal true damage for some squishies. The only negative about this is the cost...2,600 gold is a bit high. Normal item in this 2nd spot is
Book of Thoth, but I can see this being an alternate for it...you'll just have to manage mana more carefully.
Polynomicon...well, I can see the use, if you can get basics off after you
Sic 'Em. But the added damage is really better once you've built more power. I think in many cases, she'll be better off with a more standard lifesteal item...either
Bancroft's Talon or
Pythagorem's Piece, perhaps...and both of those have higher lifesteal.
Rod of Tahuti...okay, so you have 30 flat pen, and when targeting squishies, you don't really need any more pen. We've seen Tahuti picked up earlier in some games, but it's best when you're fed and can afford it more easily...it's an extremely high cost, and just for that reason it creates a significant delay in your power curve. Personally, I'd delay this just a bit, get it 5th.
- Your last 2 items are high pen items...
Obsidian Shard and
Spear of the Magus. Do you understand the function of how Spear stacks, and how it reduces the effectiveness of Shard? If you understand this, you'll be hard-pressed to argue for both of these in your build, and especially even having Spear in your build to begin. It's not a great item for her. Stick with Shard, and get something else in place of Spear. And normally, I'd say get Shard BEFORE Tahuti (but again, depends on various factors).
- So with Spear out of the way, it opens you up to get another item...in these cases, probably
Chronos' Pendant for the CDR. Or, you could get
Soul Reaver and do a late switch of Magi for Focus, giving you at least a little more CDR, since you have so little.
Based on the above, I personally wouldn't prefer to use your build in the order you list, and I wouldn't get123456789000no.
