Energy Shield Question

[vcgg]

If i prebuff with a 9 Es memory staff, should i max out energy shield?

or should i only get energy shield up to 40 points with my prebuff gear?

basically, do you get ANYTHING if energyshield goes over 40 buffed skill points?

Max isn't needed. With 9 es memory, powered circlet, powered amulet, dual SoJ, arachs, ormus, 9 skillers, anni, torch, and battle command you get +34 to energy shield right off the bat, so you only need 6 hard points.

You do get something with a lvl 41+ es. A longer duration of 60 seconds per level. Yaaaay!
