divine shield question

"cannot recover energy shield to above armour"

does that mean that, if i have 50k armour, i can recover 50k energy shield but no more?

This seems like an incredibly unnecessary restriction...how many builds have over 10k ES and how many modern builds have LESS than 10k armour. It's really not hard at all to get WAY more armour than ES. Who would be taking this keystone if they weren't already stacking armour anyway?

Maybe I'm missing something but this just seems out of whack...especially since this keystone was introduced in 3.16, when determination already got its massive boost in power and practically every build was running high armour...

Also, is there a cooldown? I know it says hits recently, but what if you continue to take hits past 4 seconds...does it just immediately reset? Or is it a 4-second cycle ex: 4 seconds of damage, 4 seconds of regen, total 8 second cycle before reset.

You may think like that cuz armour is currently very strong but there are many ways to prevent physical damage aside from stacking armour. The armour meta is not forever.

No, it works constantly.
