Now that spirit resist has been reduced or removed from a bunch of items, escalating exposure is being overlooked and is making lategame against some heroes painful.

It does 2 things, Reduces the targets spirit resistance by 15%, and increases spirit damage by 6% X20 to a total of 120% spirit damage. This may not seem like much on paper but, the base damage of those abilites increases with spirit damage itself scaling the damage exponentially. (220% X1.15 Xscaling nuke)

Currently no amount of stacking spirit resistance can save you from it as stacking resistance has diminishing returns.

Heroes with massive aoe area denial cannot be pushed against, its hard to survive even with 6 vitality items 3000 health and 50% spirit resist.

A reasonable nerf would be being immune to its effects on a tier 4 vitality item like siphon bullets or inhibitor, or on escalating exposure itself

Active return is strong against gun builds, but is useless against spirit builds, 30% damage return is not enough as spirit lifesteal on average is 44%
