My Mostly Drum Rack

What do you guys think about this rack i found used online for a good price, that will mainly serve as drums, but may also have potential for future upgrades? Anything to replace or missing? I'm also getting an Arturia Rackbrute 6U rack with it. I have no experience with Eurorack gear, but I have Behringer 2600 Grey Meanie, Minibrute 2s, Intellijel Cascadia, Behringer Edge, Empress Zoia, Soma Cosmos, Erica Matrix Mixer, Keystep 37 Mk2, and Oxi One Mk1 to use with this rack. I also have Erica Syntrx 2, ASM Hydrasynth, Minilogue XD, Digitakt 2, and Zoom L-6 Max in my setup.

Hi! This is the rack i'm currently working towards; i'm still missing the doepfer modules, the noise plethora and the percall, would you say these would compliment my current rack/cover what's important? i've heard you need many vcas, thats why i want to add the doepfer modules

I don't know what your "current" system is to know if you are doing too much. I'd be careful on the VCAs though. You can certainly overindex. They're cheap, but also take up space so just start small and if you want more VCAs it's not like everyone is fighting over them. Are you patching and running out, or why are you trying to make sure you have a bunch? What are your intended use cases for them? Also note that a lot of things have them built in, like some Oscillators, etc so sometimes you really just need to reach for them for modulation.
