Why is good spell block impossible to get without uniques?

Dont forget that as sb scales with attack block that if u have decent base the +block chance adds up. I got +8 in 3 nodes on the far right and with 30% base and laz + rainbows im set on 99% of maps.

This may be true for some uniques, but...

...you don't have to play a lifespan to find 2-3 of those.

Huh? I've been played since CB and I've never had any of those drops. Truckloads of worthless uniques, but never any of those haha.

It's incredible that you haven't gotten even a Stone of Lahzwar. Those things drop like candy. So much so that everybody corrupts them without even worrying about ruining them.

Hah yeah... I'm pretty much used to only dropping levelling uniques now, that don't even have niche uses in end-game builds like a laz does for example

GGG is constantly changing/adding things. Maybe we'll get a spell block aura at some point.


There's Vaal Grace, anybody use that? Spell dodge, not spell block, but it does the same thing for a short time: http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vaal_Grace
