Best Eredrim Build in Mortal Shell 2: Executioner Tank
馃幆 TL;DR: Eredrim's Executioner passive executes low-health enemies and builds Slaughterer stacks on every successful Riposte, each stack raising the execute threshold. He's the practical tank 鈥?not from raw HP (he has 110, less than Lazlo's 120) but because his Break tools + Riposte loop shorten the fights he tanks. Heavy Break weapon + Shattering Stone + a parry Seal.
1. Why This Build Works
Eredrim plays a riposte-and-execute loop. Land a parry 鈫?gain a Slaughterer stack 鈫?next execute triggers at higher HP 鈫?chain kills. A high Break-damage weapon feeds this loop by breaking stances faster, and the Shattering Stone boosts that Break even more.
2. The Loadout
| Slot | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Weapon | Heavy, high Break-damage weapon | Breaks stances fast to open the Riposte loop |
| Seal | Parry-focused Seal (see parry guide) | Maximizes riposte windows to stack Slaughterer |
| Support Tarstone | Shattering Stone | Extra stagger/Break support for the loop |
| Support Tarstone | Survivability / HP booster | Fills the tank role while you stack executes |
3. How to Play
- Parry aggressively 鈥?every Riposte stacks Slaughterer and raises your execute threshold
- Break stances with heavy hits to create the riposte window
- Executes trigger earlier and earlier as stacks build 鈥?finish weakened enemies for free
- You tank by ending fights fast, not by outlasting 鈥?keep the loop going
4. Upgrade Priorities
- Weapon first 鈥?Break damage drives the whole loop
- Shattering Stone early 鈥?more stagger = more ripostes = more stacks
- Shell Bond 鈥?bump survivability to keep the loop alive in long fights
馃幆 Bottom line: "Parry 鈫?stack Slaughterer 鈫?execute everything." Eredrim tanks by converting every riposte into a snowballing execute machine.
