'''Quicksilver Reload''' is a Tier 2 [[Spirit]] [[Item]].


'''Quicksilver Reload''' has a Passive component which [[Imbue|imbues]] the hero's ability with bonus [[Spirit Damage]] when hitting an enemy. Additionally, when the ability is used, the hero's weapon is instantly reloaded and gains bonus [[Fire Rate]]. This effect has a cooldown of 12 seconds.
{{ItemSummary|{{#var:item_key_or_en}}}}


It can be purchased from the [[Shop]] for {{Souls|1,250}}.
== Notes ==
* Quicksilver Reload is a [[Charge-Up]] item, thus not affected by [[Cooldown Reduction]].
* Quicksilver Reload's bonus [[Spirit Damage]] will only trigger when the [[imbue]]d ability first deals [[Weapon Damage]] or Spirit Damage to the target. If the initial damage is reduced to 0 (rounded down) or only deals [[Pure Damage]] (i.e. {{HeroIcon|Lady Geist}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Soul Exchange}}), Quicksilver Reload's bonus [[Spirit Damage]] is not applied.
* Abilities that do not deal damage still trigger the instant reload and bonus [[Fire Rate]] effects.
* The passive buff has a fixed duration of 12 seconds and is '''not''' affected by cooldown reduction.


==Notes==
== Notable Interactions ==
* [[Quicksilver Reload]]'s bonus [[Spirit Damage]] will only trigger when the [[Imbue|imbued]] ability causes [[Spirit Damage]] to the target. If the initial spirit damage is reduced to 0 (rounded down) after [[Spirit Resist]], [[Quicksilver Reload]]'s bonus [[Spirit Damage]] is not applied.
Heroes with a long [[Reload Time]] and/or quick-charging or multi-charge abilities can make good usage of Quicksilver:
* Abilities that do not deal [[Spirit Damage]] still trigger the instant reload and bonus [[Fire Rate]] effects.
* {{HeroIcon|McGinnis}} with multiple {{AbilityIcon|Mini Turret}} charges
* {{HeroIcon|Infernus}} with multiple {{AbilityIcon|Napalm}} charges
* {{HeroIcon|Lash|Lash's}} {{AbilityIcon|Flog}} heals a percentage of damage dealt and otherwise struggles to scale its damage early
*{{HeroIcon|Wraith|}} can repetitively fuel her firing duration with consistent use of {{AbilityIcon|Card Trick}} to extend her magazine and generate more Cards
* {{HeroIcon|Vindicta|Vindicta's}} {{AbilityIcon|Crow Familiar}} has a short cooldown after its T2 upgrade
* {{HeroIcon|Mo & Krill}} {{AbilityIcon|Scorn}} has a short cooldown and heals a percentage of damage dealt
* {{HeroIcon|Warden|Warden's}} {{AbilityIcon|Alchemical Flask}} can help Warden avoid his long [[Reload Time]]

*"Quicksilver" is an alternate/archaic name for the element [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_(element) mercury], a metal most characterized by being the only metallic element to stay in a liquid state at room temperature.
Item - Quicksilver Reload - Passive.gif|thumb|[[Infernus]] triggering [[Quicksilver Reload]] when casting Catalyst to instantly reload and deal bonus damage to [[Seven]].
**The fluidity and "speed" of quicksilver compared to other metals is how it got its other name, in reference to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_(planet) fastest planet] which was named after the Roman god Mercury, and is reflected by Quicksilver Reload's increased speed and fluidity of the player's magazine.

**The mercury connections continue with {{ItemIcon|Mercurial Magnum}}, as the word "mercurial" is derived from the word mercury.
