Choose a coherent path
The reviewed default is crossbow weapon carry. An alternative is close-range shotgun pick. These are tactical interpretations of the kit, not official roles or measured win-rate rankings.
Grenade supplies healing reduction already. Ira Domini includes weapon and pure damage; bullet resistance does not reduce the pure portion.

Ability targets
The default target for eligible single-target imbues is ability 1, Consecrating Grenade. Item eligibility still takes precedence: Echo Shard cannot reset an ultimate, charge items apply automatically, and global upgrades affect all eligible abilities.
Item direction
Use these as candidates for the stated path. The planner chooses compatible upgrades, accounts for owned components and reserves room for the lineup response.
Playing against Venator
Cover, avoid shotgun wall stuns, and remember his finisher includes pure damage.
A partial enemy lineup cannot establish lane assignments, enemy purchases or who is ahead. Supply those details in the planner where supported, and reconsider the plan as the match changes.
