and is this a carry or support build?

the hood boosts his ulti dmg

Updated with some of your suggestions taken into account.

Other than that, i like this build, and the item pick ups.

for me personally, i would like to see a spirit max at 7, then max beam with only one point in your dive, almost like you have. I think the hood should be a situationla item because the damge you do to your self is HP loss so it can't be reduced. and i would get 2 less brances and 1 less gauntlet, and get a ring of prot. and a salve as starting items. This is because you will only be useing 2 of the branches to get a Meck, so there is no need for so many if you are not getting a wand.
