Most guides say to dump points in vit after strength -- how hard is it for WL to hit max block with an Ars Al'Diabolos and is it worth the vit points tradeoff? Since I use enigma, I will barely ever be running (and could definitely make use of the block).

You play SC, so...

Go block if you like the block animation. Go vita if you don't.

It doesn't matter.

warlock has insane vit gain (especially if devouring) big passive dr, and an 'immortal' demon to tank

IDK what you would even need to block other than something like an aura'd archer herald pack hitting a full volley on you

u forget to mention that when he does teleproint then the demon and merc stack on top of him
also hhe has that one skill that block damage and stun attacker
for this reasons and posts above it is clear that they're is no necessary for the max blockings

I would consider it, if and when I choose to respec. Bugged Hephasto too good to pass up. But for HC, loss of shield hurt, but the books are so OP.

Weaken is a great bellwether.

Currently running shield block % only in HC and don’t have a problem.
