Enough with depending on shield stacking for survivability. Stacking shields is a drain on magician when I can focus on counterattacks rather than spamming hardened ward. I find that two piece Scourge Harvester set has really given me that little bit of luxury. I also wear the traditional five piece Kags set. Three piece willpower jewelry all arcane. I have two of them using spell damage glyph and the other is magician recovery. With this I finally learned that I can least have over 30k health but the flaw is the lack of Stamina and resistance.
