Benthic bloom the only thematically balanced void item?

[GONDAL]

I feel as if most void items have little downsides. I find this a little odd, given how void items are supposed to be "corrupted" much in the way lunar items are.

Fortunately, there is one item actually does fit this theme pretty well, and that is Benthic Bloom. It slowly upgrades all your items into legendaries, at the cost of losing all of your uncommons and commons. You end up with tons of ordinarily powerful bells and whistles, but none of the backbone to support it. This absolutely deactives builds built around lower tier items, most notably proc-based builds. However, it does not affect void and lunar items, allowing it to make builds based around those items laughably OP.

The Call of The Void, if you will; it slowly destroys your build if you to not switch to void items. However, void builds become comically overpowered.

For example, if lucky, you can get like 10 ICBMs or scorpions on a plasma shrimp build and get an instant win button.

Safer places... technical limit of being hit by multiple attacks in a single frame (which teddies > SP for).

...Also in long runs with blast shower+fuel cells+gestures (EZ FTW) you can lower the cooldown of Safer Spaces way below 1 second so you can instead of investing on getting the other 25 stacks when you find a 3d printer (minus the ones you're forced to get) you can get anything else.

Singularity is delayed damage instead of upfront (like bleed vs collapse) and is less damage, but its far friendlier on fps than the 2 bands.

Maybe, buuuuuut... not really if you have plasma shrimp and proc chains. Singularity sucks everything in, and then explodes, and you shoot a ton of shrimps, which trigger a ton of ukuleles and then kaboom, your framerate dies.

Extreme gesture blast is amazing but anything below 1s is just not worth the fps/noise. I tend to not even go under every 3s because of the noise. Its torture.
Overall, and realistically, SP is far superior. It even helps that it guards itself from the printing pool, unlike teddies. Its pretty situation/skill dependent which is better for a little while, with teddies essentially being better against dot until SP can block it all, but SP is the better long term choice for sure. Teddies only really take the theoretical final win because while SP can reach 100% every-tick, teddy can reach 100% due to code limits with no per-frame limit. This final outcome is objectively impossible without cheating, even with sacrifice runs, due to the time it would take to achieve. I just didn't clarify that well. I was too focused on the 'but there are downsides' part. I'm often bad at explaining things.

Singularity is great for combos, but the one you said, and most others, are terrible for fps. Without those combos, it basically comes down to QoL vs being able to scrap/print, and I find printing more beneficial. But if your potato can handle even one aoe nuke its a great choice. This downside is really more aimed at the extreme potato pc players like myself.
