So you may miss out on quite a bit from this, too. That's anywhere from -15% accuracy to -30% accuracy unless you're capped at 95% land rate (which for SCH is already questionable on anything outside merit targets).
As far as Enmity, the -50 enmity nuke build is pretty strong; however, it is already quite easy to get to -50 enmity without giving up that much damage (since you're using a lot of Mahatma). There is no doubt that using Tupsumati will free up some slots for damage gear instead of enmity down gear, but then you have to remember the gain in damage in the enmity down set also comes with that ~30 MACC loss.
There could be hidden effects on this or something else. At the very least, it's a great status symbol though, so congrats to the person who completed it still.
Also, isn't it obvious from the screenshot that the SCH is wearing standard idle gear? The only 'stand-out' piece of equipment there is the backpiece (not Umbra/Chev), but it's almost surely Shadow Mantle.
