E-shield or no for 200fcr FB sorc

My gear is as follows:
Hoto
35 Spirit
2/20 Circlet
2/15 Amulet
Upped Vipermagi
Upped Magefist
Arachnid
2x FCR rings
15str Trek
CtA/Spirit switch

Torch/Anni/9Fire GC/10 scs

My question is should I go ES or no? I plan to get the character to level 90, so the skills can be laid out in 2 fashions:
Vitality:
20 Firebolt
20 Fireball (20,600 FB damage)
20 Meteor
20 Fire Mastery
3 Pre-req.
1 Teleport
1 Pre-req.
1 Chilling Armor
3 Pre-req.
12 Warmth

Energy:
20 Firebolt
20 Fireball (18,600 FB damage)
20 Meteor
15 Fire Mastery
3 pre-req.
16 Telekenisis
1 Energy Shield
1 Teleport
3 pre-req.
1 Warmth
1 Frozen Armor

Which one would be better for overall pubby pvp? Keep in mind for pubbies I probably wouldn't pre-buff a whole lot, and the E-shield would absorb 71% of damage in the Energy setup. So if I do go energy route, do I just dump Energy or do some complicated Vita/Energy split?
