I wouldn't worry too much about the lack of ES on this chest, it's fairly easy to get very high base ES numbers from your shield, helm and discipline that you wouldn't miss the extra from your armour too much.
Really o_0?

There's a helmet called "Skullhead", I don't see it in the list.
Increased Armour and Eva.
+Life
+Mana
Minions have 10% Block
Minions have (guess) 300-400 armour
Minions have 2% Life regen.
I wonder if that's better than a +2 gem helmet?

Isn't a "no" better than an ignore?

I remember having more than enough ES with a Tabula Rasa equipped last league to run CI with ES just from the shield, 30% ES shield nodes, helm and discipline. I imagine it'll be even better now with the aura nodes to improve Discipline. Your ES shield does end up becoming quite important, however, as it's the single largest source of your base ES.
I'd post numbers but my characters have been reset since and I can't post accurate numbers. :/

Wow that gets rid of the annoyance of minions dying due to attrition without needing vitality aura. Sign me up!

But CI and lowlife are different, you do not get the extra nodes behind CI. Just saying ;)

there is also 2.5% life regeneration for minions on the tree now
add in an aura summoner ~3% from vitality
this would bring summons up to 7.5% +4%leech
important to notice that the nodes for leech are "x%leech from DAMAGE" not physical, so elemental auras alone should provide a hefty bonus to survivability by themselves.
ofc, now that summon gems no longer have +x%damage we will have to see how it will work but hey, it's the closest thing to actually have minions not die constantly when you stop spamming those seething pots.

This gives me 4300 ES with discipline without CI. i also have 16 es on my belt.
Swap the ES around a bit to compensate for the armor lost ES, and i am sure its viable.
The armor is a solid alternative for shavs imo. It will most likely end up being not budget friendly do :p, since the other pieces have to be very solid :D.
But still, it's better then no alternative imo, and i like the design :D.
Edit : the helm looks funky, but will it surpass a +2 minion helm? not quite sure about that =/

uggg i HATE to choose between helms.
you probably have alpha's so thats -300es that you could have from a good ES helm.
now e also have a regen helmet
there is always the +2minion helms...
ugggh so many choices :D
btw, with +6% from tree to block just with this helm and a lowly perandus one can give 56% block to minions from the get go. add the new skill that gives block chance and i think it will be quite easy to cap block on the minions with cheap gear (let alone what you can do with expensive gear like with a rathpith giving max block+spell block)

In survivability aspect it kinda should or would be on equal grounds, since 10% block and regen is nice plus some armor to minions which stacks with determination...
