1. Whats a good alternitive to spirit?
2. Is max block worth the points spent in dex?
3. If I do go for max block, what shield is best?
4. Does the -28% enemy fire res on a pheonix shield affect how much
dmg a fire sorc does?
Thanks everyone
1,3. a) Stormshield. Nice block%, DR%, resis, mods. But high STR req. I suggest socketing with Eld.
b) Whitstan's. Shield with the single highest block% in the game. Socket with Eld, or Sur, if you are ES as well.
2. Your choice. Without max block, most decent barbs will break you in half. Also helps against bowzons. Besides that, it's not needed.
4) Yes, but Pheonix is a PvM shield. For PvP, I certainly don't recommend this one, especially if you're going to MB.
