  1. This guide provides in-depth information specifically targeted for players who are new to Cassiopeia, or who are experimenting with item builds in 8.4. The main goal is to provide players with the ability to adapt a build to their unique playstyle in unison with building Cassiopeia most efficiently.
  2.  
  3. We first have to understand Cassiopeia's core items. There are many build paths for Cassiopeia, but nothing parallels the strength and synergy between: Tear of the Godess>Rod of Ages>Archangel's Staff. This is irrefutably Cassiopeia's best core build, and for efficiency sake, we're going to use this as the baseline. Building upon Cassiopeia's core items is straight forward once you understand when, and what to build. There are numerous options, and these next four items exist to satisfy your unique playstyle.
  4.  
  5. I will give a description of every possible non-core item, their gold efficiency, cost in gold, respective roles and purchase patterns within her build. The order in which these items are represented from statistical best to worst items for each individual item slot:
  6.  
  7. Disclaimer***: Active/Passive values will not be included into the gold efficiency if they are not consistent and/or quantifiable. Use your own judgement or PM me questions in the Cassiopeia Main's subreddit or Discord. My Discord username is: "Mercy." (#8676). My Reddit username is: "merrcy4no1".
