I keep seeing people looking for Memory bases and know that some of the 3ES/Cold Armor sticks are worth a bit...

But why do people use memory at all in PvM? I have only been able to find negative comments about using ES in PvM. I have used energy shield on a couple high level MF sorcs to help mitigate burst damage, but then the overall sustain that CTA gives is worth more than the 1-6 skill points into those buffing skills. Just looking for some input.

Why not use both?
prebuff with 1 and then equip other to prebuff with...
ES skill takes 6 skill points to reach, saving 6 skill points is nice !!!
I've never used ES so i wouldn't know why people would rather have the memory over CTA either

Memory is useful for pvp, not for pvm...
