Kiara needed an NP upgrade. Eresh doesn't really. If you plan to Utility, defense, support, charging, and more buffing. You want to give her more nuking power too? Let's compare her to Artoria lancer vanilla. Artoria lancer has about 400 more attack power once you factor in goddess essence.

Artoria lancer's skills involve 50% buster, 50% charge, self cleanse, and 18% charisma. Her NP has invincipierce and a 20% charge.

Ereshikigal has a 50% buster, 50% charge, debuff immunity, buff clear immunity, instadeath immunity, a 20% charisma on her NP, a 10% buster boost on NP, a 20% party defense, a 30% party NP generation, and a 3k party heal.

So Artoria lancer has a 400 higher base attack, invincipierce on NP, and a 20 charge. Comparatively, Ereshikigal has NP gain to party which is better than the 20 charge, defense to party, a defensive skill to save herself, a significant full party heal, and has better NP gain in general by a bit. Unless what you need is an AOE lancer with invincipierce NP to wipe out a wave, Ereshikigal is going to outdo Artoria lancer at every turn. In fact, even if you needed that, you could use a CE to fix it and she'd outclass Artoria lancer in even that.

Ereshikigal is neither the lancer that needs it most, nor is she underwhelming. She's a variable team support lancer, not a nuke lancer. She just happens to hit just as hard as half of the nuke lancers anyway. She's the best in her class and role by miles and is average but adequate at the job of a general farmer. She shouldn't be made to excel in that too. The strengthen should go to the one Eresh basically outclasses completely.
