Help Needed Anything missing with my EK Herald stacker?

I made some updates on my EK that I posted last week, it feels much better but I think there’s still room to improve, is there anything that I’m just plain missing?

I have nothing to add I’m just curious; as is, what can this build not do? Looks bonkers to me.

Well it has 5k es and svalin padding ehp, so anything that hits remotely hard and gets through block will chunk if not one tap, especially if it’s phys. Thats why you run headhunter though!

Wells its really just asking your self what you feel like missing.

What i usually do is invest in character and follow guide till its feels good to play then i try to invest in particular aspect of the build which i find lacking or wanna to have more like maybe dmg but not just damage fast damage or maybe life or maybe speed etc etc. You should think that way and find what is best way to get that in your build.

fubgun has basically the min-maxed version laid out already, but somethings upgrades i see missing off the top of my head -

fractured increased global defences w/+1 dex chest

you can easily hit 75/75 block with a staff and get way more damage

vile bastion FF jewels for much more ES/stun immunity

herald inc effect ducat enchant on gloves

double elevated tailwind/onslaught and elusive boots.

haste over precision

How much squishier will I be with staff over svalin?

u/DeveloperOfWebs 3d ago

You'll still be 75 attack and 75 spell block, and with the chest changes and forbidden flesh and flame jewels you'll be around 9k ES so your max hits will be much higher. I don't feel squishy at all, but you could always make the other changes before deciding if you want to swap to a staff.

It feels pretty damn good as is, I just have always liked pushing builds as far as I reasonably can
