With the changes in Patch 0.3.0, Evasion and Armour are in a pretty good spot as defensive mechanics, but Energy Shield continues to be an outlier, being vastly superior. For comparison, endgame Life builds have around 2-3K life whereas ES builds have around 10-15K ES. I urge GGG to NOT buff Evasion and Armour further as that would trivialize challenging content within the game.

Instead for Patch 0.4.0, GGG should Giga-Nerf ES with a three-pronged approach as follows:

* All Energy Shield modifiers on items reduced by 25%
* All Energy Shield nodes on passive tree reduced by 25%
* Increase default Recharge Time to 6 seconds (up from 4 seconds)

There in lies the problem tho.... GGG dosent know how to nerf without a sledgehammer...

GGG doesn't know what needs to be nerfed becouse probably doesn't play his own game. Few testers can't make the diference. It needs to party every day with people to realize the chaos in balance.

phyisical damage reduction from armor ~ Armor/(Armor + Initial Hit Damage* 10). So if the hit is higher than the 10% of your total effective armor, damage reduction is still dogshit. Test some deli with nasty mods...Warrior needs hp for nasty maps.

DK-i can do Deli 100+ with the Hardest Mods really not a Problem with 3k Hp at all. Ok perhaps i have to use a Life Flask from Time to Time. And i play 2-Hand so no Block chance at all. In my opinion the Combination o high Armour AND Armour aplies to ele is completely broken. No Death since 3 Levels (93) atm-and i can get even more Armour from Tree. I run the deadliest Map Mods and i want to die, but it 's impossible xD

I played a minmaxed Armour Warbringer and a minmaxed Es Bloodmage.
Even with 14k ES i am clearly not as safe as my Warbringer with 3k Life but fully maxed Armour/Armour aplies to Eledmg.
Armour is so op Content is boring now, because nothing comes close to kill me.
Stay afk in the deadliest Puddles, laugh at the biggest Slams of any Mob and watch Tv °_°.
For this reason we need MUCH HARDER Endgame if Armour stays like it is now.

TbH i think Armour needs a Nerf, but not ES^^
