Good point, I didn't realize the boost in armor Mien of Leadership gave. With the shaman build I was thinking of improving spell power instead to increase damage (+passive healing), dodge, block and parry - as well as increasing DPS and Healing from the other clerics in the party...

Regarding mana, I'm hoping the crit-heavy shaman build would give about the same mana regen with "Endless Winter', but I may be wrong about that?
