Megabonk Does Soul Harvester Stack
Soul Harvester sits among the most misunderstood legendaries in MegaBonk. Its effect looks simple, but stacking copies changes how it behaves mid-run. The item summons homing souls on kill, and those souls can multiply fast once you start collecting duplicates.
Does Soul Harvester Stack
Yes, Soul Harvester does stack in MegaBonk. Each copy increases the number of homing souls that spawn when you kill an enemy. However, the gain per extra copy is lower than the first. The first one feels amazing, the second adds a bit more, and after that it’s mostly style points and particle spam.
How Stacking Actually Behaves
The base version makes two homing souls appear every time you kill something. If you find another copy, it adds more souls to each kill, but not double. The extra souls still deal damage and seek targets, but the increase per copy drops off.
Some players report slightly faster clear speed with two or three copies, but most runs show better returns picking another legendary instead. The stacking is real, just not equally strong forever.
When to Grab Extra Copies
If you’re early in the run and still building your core items, a second Soul Harvester can help a lot with mob-heavy areas. If you’re late in a run and already deleting waves instantly, you’ll barely notice the extra souls doing anything meaningful.
It’s also worth noting that the effect triggers independently of other on-kill items, so if you combine it with anything that buffs kill-based effects, stacking becomes a bit more fun to watch.
Best Builds That Benefit
Soul builds that already rely on spawned entities or minions
Area-clear focused characters who thrive in enemy-dense stages
Players farming essence or kill-based upgrades, since the homing souls count as extra kills
Avoid stacking it if you’re doing a boss-centric build or burst-damage setup, since the extra souls can’t keep up with single-target fights.
Final Blurb
Soul Harvester stacks in MegaBonk, but only up to the point it’s worth your slot. It’s great early, decent mid-run, and mostly visual noise by the end. Keep one, maybe two, and spend later legendaries on something that hits harder or buffs survivability.
FAQ
Does each copy add more souls per kill
Yes, but not in a perfectly linear way. The second adds extra souls, but the difference gets smaller each time.
Can Soul Harvester stack with other on-kill effects
Yes, it combines with all other items that trigger on enemy death, and each one activates separately.
Is there a limit to how many souls can spawn
There’s no official hard cap, but performance and visual clutter make it impractical after a few stacks.
Should I reroll duplicates
If you already have two and get another legendary choice, reroll it. There are stronger items to push late-game runs.
Does it affect bosses
Not directly. The souls need smaller enemies to spawn from, so boss fights don’t gain much unless there are adds present.
