Armor won't affect shield strength, so if you use Redirection you can should probably skip this.

But just stacking Vitality+Despoil+Health Conversion will give you massive survivability againtst huge amounts of burst damage. Plus this lets you keep 3x stacks up pretty much at all times without having to lose your shield to pick up an orb.

Not to mention the fact that you can run Desecrate continuously without having to worry about energy being lost from Eximus/Disruptor/traps/other. IMO it makes Nekros 10x more fun to play.

If you add Equilibrium you will almost never run out of energy, so you can cast basically anything you want without bothering with energy management, or you can channel a melee weapon (Secura Lecta perfect) endlessly.

I just consider his base shield amount an extra bonus.
