Max bock with Spirit Shield? Worth it?

Hi i just made my new pvp windy. But i got a question.

Is it worth to put about 33x pts into dex to get max block with spirit shield?

My current set-up looks like this:

Hoto
Enigma
Arach
Spirit Shield (Storm in stash)
Jalas (Shako + Ravenlore in stash)
Bulring / Soj
Sandstorms
Trang Gloves

This way i hit the 99Fcr bp
And the 99Fhr bp (thx to spirit and jalals)

So is it worth to get max block with spirit? Or should i go Stormshield for pvp windy

Thx I A

no, + as a windy having the dr% from stormshield is great.

 

[Cabel]

Hmm so those 100 stat pts and DR% are worth more then the +4skills and Fhr bp and fcr from spirit?

Ok thats what i wanted to know

Thx

spirit;s +2 skills...

I would only attempt it if you had a gg +maxblock safety ammy (10), and even then it'd take a disgusting amount of dexterity. You'd be better off sticking with a SS for phys ppl.

 

[Cabel]

yeah but if I dump spirit i gotta use 2fcr rings to hit 99fcr bp so that's 2 more skills gone > soj and bk ring

But yeah it seems better to me also.

Another question then what should i Socket my storm with? I already got max DR with nigma shako and storm.

hoto 40, coronet 20, arach 20 magefists 20. NN for spirit oO

Yeah I still need to get a nice rare druid pelt/circlet but they'r rare in the trade community.. everyone keeps them for themselve :<

Note that pelts do not come with fcr.
You can use: hoto (40)+ammy(20)+2xrings(20)+Arach(20).

Bad idea, spirit doesn't have any FBR (faster block rate) bonus so the delay with block animation will be longer, thus making you more vulnerable.

 

[Bulgarian]

monarchs come with 42% block, that would probably take like 1/3-1/2 of all of your stat points to max block with it

no.

i knew one wind druid with close to maxblock spirit it was garbage
