Energy is the best defence by far

If patch 0.3.0 doesn't solve the problem with balance i will quit for ever.

Enough with this stupidity vision.

Fix the damn balance between defences...
How many patches should we
wait for the obvious things?

ES destroys all the balance of the defences right now but nerfing it just to say that you improved the balance isn't a good solution. All the other defences should be buffed with no punishments and reach equal to the numbers of ES.

Especially Armour that looks like the worst defence in past 20 years of all RPG gaming. I see Mages that are more tanky than Warriors.

GGG you failed again....

You know what's funny about ES? It technically has no purpose.

ES was created as an alternate Mana Shield because we reserve mana in PoE1. We don't do that in PoE2 so it's just free HP. You can also increase it along with Mana and get the Tri-Recoup builds.

ES can create more interesting interactions sometimes but it's entirely unnecessary.

Then you have Recoup which is just another lesson not learned from PoE1 when recovery got so high they had no choice but to 1-2 shot players because we recover to 100% in 2 seconds.
