Great guide but I'm having some issues with Chaos Golem, the int requirements on higher levels are crazy and if I don't level him then he dies in seconds. Did you level him to 20 or stopped before that?

It's absolutely not necessary, you can stop leveling him at a certain point. Also, you can use other golems if you want (fire).

nice build

Thanks :)

Whats a good replacement for Lapis amy and Rainbowstride boots once you get the 100% block node in Glad?

I'm seeing people run Anvil and those 10ex crusader boots.. any other good options?

Anvil definitely, cause it will get you to 78% block & spell block.

For boots, just any boots that suit you, it really doesn't matter. It can be any base: AR/EV, pure AR, AR/ES if you want more ES for your Aegis proc.

Updated the build for patch 2.4.

What were the changes for 2.4?

You mean, what were the patch notes or what did I change the build? If the former, check the Announcements/Patch Notes sub-forum. If the latter: not much has changed for my build, I only optimized the tree slightly.

Out of curiosity, for this build and other similar ones, what would the difference between a new and legacy aegis be? Would having 4% over 2% ES recharge per block unlock any new possibilities, such as more flexibility to focus on damage?

Been seeing a lot of aegis builds around, and was kinda wondering how big of a difference there is, because most of them seem to just settle for the normal, newer version, and don't include any suggestions if someone wanted to make a goal of eventually upgrading to a legacy aegis.

Yes, I meant what you changed in your build for 2.4. I didn't see a changelog for it :P so I asked. Thanks!

Edit: Also, is the EQ nerf really that bad? Some other builds are suggesting static strike. Can you comment on this?
