the problem with the shields is,

are the only two i can seem to find and they are both not really decent, am i wrong?

Imo they shouldn't be too hard to craft. Just buy the base, and alt/aug/regal spam till you get +2 fire res and good ES roll. Then multimod with whatever you want.

Also, make sure it's ilevel 80+ or else you can't hit the +2 fire res eldritch mod

EDIT: The maximum ES circlet I've found were barely over 300. I take it the Vertex is a more solid option and all I should worry about is the reservation enchant to do away with conquereror's efficiency instead? Probably gonna sell me lvl4 enlighten then.

The gains from switching to a rare helm aren't really in the helm itself, but in the freedom it gives you to upgrade other gear. If you can pick up stat requirements on your helm it makes filling out resistance/strength/dex requirements elsewhere easier, which gives you a better opportunity to scale ES/damage/regen on those other pieces. The other option there with helm which would probably work out a lot cheaper than buying the enchant is to grab one of the essence crafted helms with 5% reduced mana reserved (might be worth crunching the numbers there to see if even a 4% or 3% essence craft might be enough for you and your setup).

That said, the boost the +1 Vertex gives is substantial and can save a lot of currency... so not something I'd rush trying to switch out until you've exhausted other cheaper upgrades.


Conq Efficiency on the other hand is horrible. Sure it's a route to getting all six auras up, but it's seldom a good one. I'd swap my gems around to be BM > Enlighten > PoI > Discipline in the helm and Vitality > PoL > lower level Clarity (6) in the boots, dropping the Empower entirely for now.

Making that change costs you 8.6 Net Regen, 71 ES and a temp drop in your max lightning res from 81% to 79% (that loss will disappear once you level PoL to 20, in which case both setups would give you 81% max res). However now you have a free jewel slot from dropping Conq Efficiency which can more than offset those losses and give you big gains.
You can also add in an Enduring Cry/Decoy Totem/any other red gem you like to give you added utility in your boots.

With a level 6 Clarity in that setup you've 63 unreserved mana and 84.5 regen, more than enough for anything we need to cast.

You can't sustain SR for more than 4-5 seconds though. That could be annoying against bosses.

Just killed all the end-game bosses with 7.7K ES and some underleveled gems. Only died once during my Shaper runs and that was to boss at the end of the transition phase LOL. Great build would highly recommend every to try it!
