If you want to make Eluard perform at peak performance in AFK Arena, you need to run the right built. While many players think simply maxing out will do the trick (well, not too wrong), there are certain sweetspots with Eluard that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.
Eluard’s Signature Item should be at +20. The extra shield is really valuable so worth getting. If you use heroes in the frontline that deal damage or you use heroes that go behind the enemy lines, the extra damage is also really worth getting..

Furniture Recommendation
Overall it’s recommended to get Eluard’s 9/9 furniture set bonus. Eluard’s 3/9 bonus will add protection and helps triggering the 9/9 bonus. Missing the utility here for the other team allies so nothing to pick with a high priority.

Recommended Artifacts
Windbinder is the best artifact to run with Eluard in most cases, although you can also consider running Warden of the Arcane or Duras Call as backups, depending on your team setup and what artifact you have available.
Engraving
In terms of Engravings, your final goal should be E30.. The skill and stats from E30 are a game-changer here and absolutely worth getting and you will feel the difference in battle, although I don’t recommend investing more. Learn more about my recommended engraving priority here.
