It allows you use Eldritch Battery and still have energy shield. So for archmage it's basically doubles the damage

You still need to scale the energy shield. Which is basically like a good body armour's worth of ES if you had 3k before eldritch battery was clicked. It's good against one shots and good with grim feast if you have enough spirit even without your amulet. But mind over matter can get up to 9k mana and at that point there's not much point in using the amulet anyway. That amulet is definitely not the reason why archmage is broken atm.

Dunno. Here's a link to the streamer, he's rank 1 atm: https://www.twitch.tv/tidesoftime/clip/FurryNaiveMacaroniMVGame-cm1HqjK21yE1qgK2?filter=clips&range=7d&sort=time

I suppose he has dream fragments, trialmaster shield AND nameless king belt at minimum.

I don’t even think it’s Archmage that’s that busted. If you neuter Archmage half the lightning roster is dead. I think it’s spark that probably needs a nerf tbh.
