Nothing with 3400 es or life can be called a tank. Block is rng. Aegis aurora does not prevent 1/2/3 shots all the time. Nisseon with 7k es on hc almost died in a split second when he got overconfident with AA. You dont have a lot of refresh per hit with 13k armor, and your damage buffer is too low. Your light res aint even capped, lol. Dominus smash will make you cry, -max piety will make you bleed. You cant really compete in high end maps with this build. Spike dmg >>> this build

" Dude seriously? The 3400 ES you always pick on is in full MF gear optimized for lunaris runs, not in the real gear of this build. I thought you would be able to figure this out by the description "Lunaris MF run". My current gear has ~4.5k ES, and it's still very bad on ES side. I'm saving up for better stuff right now though, tested (with some pure ES stuff i have lying around) it will reach ~6k ES once i'm done gearing up. Resistances were all capped, but i sold my old ring and don't have the planned replacement (a second The Taming) yet. With that all will be capped again. For things like map piety i use my Divination + Resistance Flask, that + 59% spellblock (with Stone of Lazhwar) is enough. Armour is no problem, i always have 3x granites with me and never run out of charges. I can't say if it's able to tank a Palace Dominus Touch of God with difficult mods since i've never owned a 78 map yet, but Residence Dominus is no problem and Touch of God is fortunately one of the easiest attacks to dodge. I know you will now demand videos as proof and don't worry, they will come once i'm done upgrading my gear, got a map pool and a bandicam license. There have been a few older videos (bazaar map, dual oak) but i've deleted them since the build changed a lot since i made those videos. twitch.tv/enkivt

So, after being ninja-killed by Thena Moga and finding out Shav's just recently increased to a totally ridiculous price, i thought "screw that".
I dropped low life and rolled the build completely for CI. This now allows us to easily run even chaos maps without the need of playing super careful or needing a 100ex chest. Of course the change wasn't that simple, i needed to find a way to substitute the 30% damage bonus from PA and to make all four auras work on mana. In order to make it work i had to rework a huge part of the passive tree. Dropped PA, some block nodes, some damage (which i picked up at some other point) and Static Blows. The ladder one was completely replaced by q20 Added Lightning Damage and 2x The Taming, which is just as effective. Spent more than 15ex in regrets so far, and hope the tree is now finally perfect. Updated the whole guide, gear, screenshots and added a new video. Will add more once i roll interesting maps. If you find some passage in my guide referring to the outdated build, please let me know. Did this all after being tired from work so it's entirely possible i forgot to update something. twitch.tv/enkivt

15 ex? Damn, that's a lot to spend to respec a character. Anyways, it's always fun watching you develop this build. Maybe I'll try it again one day whenever I get the ex for it, assuming GGG doesn't legendary the shield...

" Thanks man, yeah the respec was very expensive but i learned a lot about several mechanics such as block, low life, zealots oath etc. I hope now it finally reached the final stage, so far it's very fun mapping and didn't run into any deadly situation yet. I actually hope Aegis doesn't get nerfed, simply because it wouldn't change the problem. Even with just 1% of Armour replenished on ES it would still be extremely powerful. I think Aegis (and BoR) should rather be gated in higher level maps, just like other powerful uniques such as Voltaxic Rift. twitch.tv/enkivt
