'''Spirit Power''' increases the effectiveness of your [[Ability|abilities]] and [[items]]. In addition to increasing [[Damage|spirit damage]], spirit power can also increase miscellaneous ability attributes that aren't otherwise broadly covered by [[spirit stats]]. Spirit power is generally useful on all heroes but some will find it more useful than others due to specific scaling coefficients.

Spirit power can be found on items of every variety but is most common on spirit items. In addition to bonuses listed in the item itself, spirit items have implicit spirit power bonuses that correspond to their item tier.

When an ability or item can be scaled by spirit power it will be indicated with a purple upward trending arrow and the spirit star icon. The effectiveness of spirit power on a given ability or item varies on a cases by case basis, but is always calculated as an increase using the following formula:

In general this represents linear scaling, with the rate of increase being determined by the spirt power coefficient. In most cases, the spirit power coefficient can be obtained by hovering over the skill while pressing the <code>Extra Info</code> hotkey.

=== Hidden Spirit Power Coefficients ===
Items often scale with spirit power but it can be difficult to determine if and how effectively they will scale. In general, if an item deals spirit damage, that damage will scale with spirit power. Other properties of items such as inflicting [[fire rate]] slow or negative [[bullet resist]] don't currently scale with spirit power, even if they are produced by a spirit item. The spirit power coefficient for item damage isn't currently shown and appears to be a slightly modified version of the linear scaling formula for abilities. The formula for item spirit damage is:
