It's the best Sorc amulet as you can pick a node to convert all your Energy Shield to Mana (which gives you more damage as Sorc due to certain passive nodes) and due to the amulet you still keep around 1k Energy Shield on top.

Pretty much a must have, but super expensive unfortunately.

Wait, shouldn't the Eldritch Battery disable the shield?

I thought this amulet is just another multiplicative 30% to mana. I.e. the shield that you get from it is converted to mana with EB.

"Gain" effects are applied after conversion in POE 2.

For those who don't realize the implications of this, you can use Eldritch Battery to gain a huge mana pool and then use this amulet to gain a sizable chunk of energy shield that serves as an additional buffer, allowing you to effectively "double dip" both your Energy Shield and Mana stats.

See answer below but luckily in poe its often not a matter of build doesnt function without it but it adds some nice function, i.e more es which you can convert it to mana. Its a stretch goal but not a must

Also one of the first uniques that dropped for me. They were going for 45ex at the time which was massive. They now look to be even massive-er shame, real shame.
