PoE Bypass Energy Shield

Chaos Damage Bypass Energy Shield

If the character has any energy shield remaining when damage is taken, even damage from Labyrinth traps, that damage is inflicted on energy shield first. Physical damage reductions and elemental resistances applies to damage before it is deducted from energy shield. Damage is only applied to life or mana once all energy shield is depleted.

The exception to this is chaos damage, which bypasses energy shield.
