Cannot make up my mind about essence of insanity for QOL shield sharge or essence of loathing for more crits. Thoughts?

good luck trying to get an essence shield that looks like this:

If you want Power Charges I suggest chancing lots and lots of Sorcerer Boots and use a Skyforth. Honestly considering a Skyforth will run you about 385 chaos and insanity essences are 18 chaos each the boots end up being a cheaper option to get Power charges. That is unless you think you can craft a GG shield with less than 22 Essences.

Considering we are a high Mana build and Skyforth changes Stun Threshold to work off of Mana it might be a decent choice. Obviously you lose complete stun immunity compared to Kaom's Boots but can always just use Brine King Pantheon to help with that. According to PoB using my current gear sitting in my stash I have 82% crit chance with Diamond Flask running. If I click the box that says I use power charges it goes up to 88% and my DPS goes from 98k to 103k.

So lets go back to your wanting to craft power charge gain onto the shield. My current shield, the one above gives me 102% spell crit chance. If I take it off my Diamond Flask crit chance drops down to 75.78% or a loss of 6.43% crit. Lets say you use a garbage roll shield that has good life and resists but didnt roll any spell crit. With no crit on my shield, but using Power Charges my Crit Chance is 83.24% so I would gain less than 2% crit using a GG Life/Resists essence shield that didnt roll spell crit.

Of course theres still two things to take into consideration. One is how many essences will it take to craft a GG shield. Lets be generous and say it took you 10 essences to craft a 100 life 90 total resist shield. Thats still more than what I paid for mine given current prices of Insanity essences. And secondly that its only a 10% chance to gain a power charge when you block. I dont know about you but I dont want anything getting remotely close to me. If they are beating on me then if anything Id want to gain endurance charges over power charges.


*** So just looked at your Profile and your shield is pretty similar to mine except yours has spell damage and mine more ES. Do you honestly think you will ever Essence craft anything even remotely close? Plus your resists are already balanced around a Wise Oak...I assume. A new shield could mean having to rework all of your slots. Not to mention its gonna take 100 essences to get stats as good lol.

Sorry if this is a silly Question, but if I can only afford the 30% helm enchant that's still good enough to swap out phys to lightning for increased critical strikes correct?

You actualy dont need the helmet enchant, if you are running on bugged, buy one of these https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Hrimsorrow.

Then spend more currency o nice high life and res helmet.

Sorry I should've mentioned that I was asking because I actually managed to pick up a decent life tri-res helmet with the 30% enchant. Was just curious if the 100% is absolutely necessary to swap to increased crit or if I should still stick with the phys -> lightning.
