== Notes ==
* The Spirit Amp is calculated multiplicatively with other sources of Spirit Resist and Damage Amp.
* Unlike {{ItemIcon|Escalating Exposure}}, the Spirit Amp is not created as a separate instance of spirit damage nor does have a visual indicator of its stacks.
* As of the [[Update:February 25, 2025|February 25, 2025]] update, in addition to its own passive, '''Spellslinger's Headshots''' also has the passive effects of '''Soul Shredder Bullets'''.
** The '''Soul Shredder Bullets''' debuff can be activated from any source of Weapon damage (e.g. bullets or melees). However, '''Spellslinger'''<nowiki/>'s debuff with the same effect can only be activated through bullet damage.
** This means a bodyshot with a gun will effectively double the Spirit Amp and Lifesteal, granting 16% Spirit Amp and 36% Spirit Lifesteal, while a melee or ability that deals melee based damage will only grant 8% Spirit Amp and 18% Spirit Lifesteal.
*Currently for unknown reasons, Spellslinger Headshots and its Soul Shredder component's Spirit Amps add up to a max cap of 70%, effectively making the 10th stack ineffective.
**This can be seen through abilities that deal 100 base spirit damage such as {{HeroIcon|Grey Talon}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Charged Shot}}. An initial headshot with Spellslinger raises this to 122 (16% + 6%), and further headshots will plateau at 170 damage (16% + 9 x 6%). <ref>{{YouTubeCite|HYGCowq2PQg|Demonstration of Spellslinger Headshots}}</ref>
* The debuff only affects each player's own spirit damage. Teammates cannot benefit from this debuff, even if they own their own the item.
