Build Strategy

Spiky Shield Tank

Chunky gains % Damage based on Max HP but has capped speed and reduced dodge/regen. The Spiky Shield is the best weapon as it deals damage based on Armor, allowing you to ignore melee damage stats and focus entirely on tank stats (HP/Armor) which significantly boosts survivability and damage simultaneously.

Chopper scales with Max HP but wastes the lifesteal tag. Primitives like Sticks or Rocks work but Spiky Shield is optimal.
