Nah, Delegation isn’t necessary for this build.
With the amount of health and shield regen you get when the Digi-Jacks die, it offsets the need to have 25% of your damage go to them.
Also, since the Digi-Jacks tend to take much of the enemies’ aggro, if you’re using it as a way to kill them off faster, it’s unnecessary from that regard as well (in my opinion and with the testing I did at least).
Granted, I have only truly tested this skill against Eclipse and EOS. I used to have it in my build, but I decided to swap it out and honestly I didn’t notice any change in my suitability or how fast the Digi-Jacks die. With 1/5 Optimism the Digi-Jacks come back with less and less health, and start popping dead in one tick of their damage anyways (or less if they actually take damage from enemies).
