depends on your ES% however I'd expect the crystal belt to outperform in a vast majority of circumstances, the less ES % you have from other gear/passives the better the unique belt performs but most characters have at least 200% lol

I got now 14950 es when discipline aura is on. Using first belt. Not sure how much % es total I have in passive tree.
You have a total of
21 + 201 + 244 + 21 + 874 + 387 + 22 + 529 + 399 = 2698 flat ES, not counting the belt.
14950 / 115 * 100 = 13000 not counting 15% More ES (what a nice round number)

Bated Breath grants 50 flat, 25% Increased.
2698 + 50 = 2748
13000 / 2748 = 4.73, so about 373% Increased ES with Bated Breath.

The Crystal Belt drops 15% Increased ES, but grants +81 flat ES.
2748 + 81 = 2829
2829 * 4.58 = 12956, which is very slightly less than 13k.

The large amount of flat ES from gear and Disc makes Bated Breath a tiny bit better.

Thx for help, but I m not sure you included that int difference in those items? Batted belt got 25 int, and crystal 49 int so it's almost 5% es difference.
Note how I said Bated Breath grants 25% Increased ES? :/
Ok sorry my bad. Thx again for help, difference looks so minimal so that crystal is not worth 3ex price for sure. Maybe I will ever use crystal ( other one ) if I need more resistances.
