Mid-Air Mobilizer is good for early stat-boosting, especially when in Valkyrie since you're always airborne. Advanced Nanobiotics is also free stats since you're also healing a lot. Extra armor is good for more tankiness if you have the cash. Other options include: Winning Attitude if you feel your team is on the backfoot or other Weapon Power/Attack Speed with whatever cash you have left.

Celestial Clip is for even more DPS, with the really high Attack Speed and infinite ammo in Valkyrie, you can spawn that free extra bullet more often. Other options: Divine Intervention if the enemy has more burst than sustained damage, Cushioned Padding for CC resistance, Junker Whatchamajig for starting ult charge.

Getting more rezzes off = more Valk time. If you have the Cash, you can get Codebreaker if you need the Armor Break, Chain Evoker in place of Resurection Rangefinder if you're not having too much trouble with getting rezzes off. Volskaya Ordnance or Weapon Jammer can also be good Weapon Power/Attack Speed items if the situation needs it.

Serenity is for more healing while in Valkyrie. Almost all of Mercy's other powers are also pretty good, except for Threads of Fate, The Whambulance, Glass Extra Full, Equivalent Exchange for this build at least. More Weapon Power for more healing.

Description

Instead of staying a spectator when you're ulting, take matters into your own hands and Katrina Katrina away.

The core of this build is
and
for powers and
for items. Mercy has no healing abilities, so staking all items into your staff's output is the way to farm Valkyrie. Keeping Attack Speed and Weapon Power close can be better than just stacking all your stats into one of them, especially since Mercy's healing has no resource.

You can swap out some of the Rez related items for more support or tanky focused items if you feel like your team is doing well like
or
.

Starting with
allows you to switch to a more tanky and Rez focused build.
