I am a shield stacking sorc; my current gear provides 39k magicka and 2.7k spell damage buffed.
With 100 champion points in bastion this is how my shields translate:
Hardened Ward: 18492
Healing Ward: 6750
Harness Magicka: 15752
Replenishing Barrier: 41480
my health and shields: 20k(82474)
that means anyone could potentially have: 64k+ shields against magic(cause harness absorbs magic damage)
if you have any trouble with this math let me know
So many people "forget" many do not have 100 CPs to spend in one passive. lol
very true. and honestly its all i have. sorcs dont need a whole lot of other passives in the red tree
You'd actually get more benefit putting a good 10 points in your elemental and magick damage defenses as those translate to your shields as well but 100 points into bastion isn't a terrible idea either.
Most active players who have done some light grinding and/or play 4+ hours a day since 1.6 have over 300 CPs now. I took a good month off since 1.6 and I still have over 300.
those passives dont translate to your shields. if your a sorc putting points into damage mitigation your doing it wrong
