What do you think is the highest damage build type?

I'm just wondering what is the highest damage build type right now?

I have an energy blades build and I struggle to think of how a different build could do more damage at the same low budget. If I had a high budget I still think energy blades would probably be the best but possibly armor stacker or some other type of stacking build could match it. I feel like some other build types would have more tank but not more damage idk.

Depending on the patch it tends to go back and forth between armourstacker and manastacker. Neither of them are crazy tanky though.
The current patch favors armourstackers heavily because of the Doryani mercs.

Energy Blade or ES-stacking in general gives up some of the offense to be a lot more tanky.

Oh yeah thanks for response I totally forgot about mana stacker even after having spent a bit of time watching it at the start of merc league on streams.

Problem I always have when making mana stacker build is getting and crafting a simplex amulet it's just way over my budget with how much I play rn. I put together a mana rf at the end of settlers league just to see how it felt and I was impressed with the damage you get from Indigon's but didn't really like it much more then other low life RF builds I'v made. But I totally see how it can scale into oblivion if you got the funds.

I try'd to make a few tri stat stackers in the time being and I'm not really impressed with them in terms of defense but it is a cool way to scale damage.
Not really sure what I'll make next league yet but I definitely want a well scaling build.
