How are players getting 8k+ Energy Shield?

Guys,

How are players getting 8k+ Energy Shield? I did some calculations and it looks like getting over 6k is difficult.

On your gear you'd have:
250 - helm
600 - chest
150 - boots
300 - Shield
50 - belt

On your stats you'd have:
213 + 60% Increased from passives + int
20% More from passives
200 from Discpline

That adds up to around 6k. How are people gettng 8k+?
The chance to Vaal +1% maximum resists on an amulet is less than 1/300.
Uh considering you forgot the % improvements from rings and necklaces and flat stat boosts.

Then your values for gear are way off.
400 ES helm is possible.
over 1000 on chest is possible.
over 500 on shield is possible.

etc etc

250% ES
Self proclaimed noob to the core, but still hardcore
The ES from discipline gets the increase of ES too, so your own example would lead to 7k ES alone. The ES stats you postet are rather low anyway.

250% ES


Local ES still only accounts for up to 490 on the chest.
That 250% doesn't apply to anything else. Again, local gear mod.

getting over 6k is indeed difficult.

the ones who get over 8k are few and far between, and they have far better ES gear than the values which you've mentioned.

Examples:
Spoiler
Build of the Week 14
The first Righteous Fire/Non-Shavronne's/Shavronne's HC
Shameless self-proclaimed theory-crafting extraordinaire and forum crusader
I have nearly 7k, and could be over if I swapped my shield. I use these:
Spoiler

and I could have more by dual weilding ephemeral edges (tried it) but i lose a good bit of dps from the shield and ofc block too however useful it may be. Same goes for ratpith globe, tried one on but lose too much dps though that one boosts my defense quite a bit.
Currently @ 9.6K

Heres my gear:

I am going for realistic gear, not super charged gear. Always, some of the other posters informed me.
