OVERVIEW
This is a very basic Estelle melee build optimized for the use in duo/squad mode. You might feel her melee is quite weak comparing to others if you look at build metrics below, but she can inflict good damages if used with skills.

Build Metrics using Build Measurement Guide (LV20 Fiora vs Dummy with hp 2400/def 200):

• Dmg per 10 sec (Stationary Melee Performance) - (2032+1957+2140+1956+1880)/5 = average 1993
  
• 5 Continuous Hits (Orb Walking Performance) - (623+761+699+692+761)/5 * 1.65 (attack range) * 1.19 (attack speed) = total 1388 Approximation of Orb Walking Performance
  
• Life Steal 20%
  
• Overall Melee Performance - ((((1993+ 1388)/2)/100)*20 + ((1993+ 1388)/2) = 2028
  
• Max Damage of "Emergency Extinguish" (Skill Amplification Performance) - average 352
  
• Defense - 132
  
• Uniqueness - 1) High rate of Life Steal that boosts performance in melee fight
  

PRE BUILD


POST BUILD

* It will probably be difficult to collect all the gold-colored items by the end of the match. Therefore, it is listed in order of priority for build performance. For the gold-colored items in the second column, try to find them after collecting all the gold-colored items in the first column. If the items in the 2nd column appear in the middle of the match in a box or other way, of course you can wear them.

SLOT VARIANTS

• Parashu instead of The Juggernaut
  

USAGE

• Estelle Combo: 1) Use Hazard Shield and keep blocking until you feel good to attack, 2) Target your enemy and dash with "Forcible Entry" skill that will inflict either airborne or stunned, 3) Use "Emergency Extinguish" skill to make vision blocked, 4) Use "Suppression" and "Maleficent Helix" skills plus melees continuously until your enemy die.
  
• For more details about build metrics above, her basic damage from the her basic stat doesn't do much damages. But melee with her skill "Suppression" will highly boost your damage. Strangely, we found that the damage of her skill "Suppression" isn't very different regardless of you have high skill amplification or not (almost similar). Skill Amplification will boost the damage of her "Emergency Extinguish" skill a lot only. It also boost "Forcible Entry" and "First Response" a lot by about 2 times with high Skill Amplification, but their damage itself even with high skill amplification are quite low. For the rest of skills, Skill Amplification boosts moderate amount about only 1.3 times on elite skill's damage part, while boost from barrier part is almost similar, which means it allows you to go with melee instead of skill amplification focused build to use melee build with stun from Supression and healing from Maleficent Helix.
  
• Use "Helitack Stat!" elite skill upon your ally when having low health, or youself if you have low HP during combat.
  
• In terms of HP recovery foods, you may need 3~4 inventory spaces for storing HP foods.
  
• For SP recovery food, you only need 1 inventory space. This build takes moderate amount of SP. I mean if you have 5+ more quantity of high quality SP recovery food in one inventory space, then your 1 space for storing that 5+ is enough.
  
• 1 inventory space for camera.
  
• When you are being chased by enemy team, quickly dash to opposite direction with "Hazard Shield" skill, fold the shield, then use "First Response" skill to quickly run away, or use "Helitack Stat!" elite skill to teleport to your ally who is probably in long distance.
  
• Generally I do not recommend you get into any serious fight that doesn't look like easy to win unless your elite skill (Helitack Stat!) is ready. Tell your partner that your elite skill is not ready by Ctrl+click on elite skill icon (if you have no mic). For this moment of recharging you may just hunt animals around the map, or hide in bush, etc. Killing animal is very important. The one of the useful methods is to collect dozens of animals and then kill all the of them at once using skills, etc.
  
• It is important to target the right opponent. Use the A key from time to time to hit the correct opponent. In general, it is better to target an opponent that has low defense and can be killed quickly.
  
• When there is only one enemy team left at the end, and if there is a machine nearby where you can buy rare items, but you don't have that many credits at the same time, buy the First Aid Kit. It is helpful for Tanking.
