Reigning Veteran Gladiator

I want to talk about the new ascendancy node Reigning Veteran from the gladiator. Somehow i dont feel excited when i got the node in ulab, like before the changes.
Before it was maybe to strong, but i dont feel well with that node with it actually state.
10% maximum blockchance is nice, but i dont like the additional armor and evasion. It feels weak.

Wouldnt it be better to give the player spell suppress instead?
Maybe something like 2% chance to suppress spell damage per 3% chance to block.

so many class has weak node... its not ONLY glad...
