This skill as mentioned, encourages an 8v8 meta.

Suggestion

Perhaps the best way to fix this skill is not to mess with its energy. I know that this skill has always been used as an efficiency spell, so perhaps hurt how efficient it is. Keep in mind that if you want to nerf Aegis, it is important that you take a look at why Aegis is being brought. That said, I think if you are intent on keeping Aegis on monks, a good way to change it would be to do this.

10e, 2second cast, 30 second recharge.

Enchantment Spell. For the next 10 seconds, all party members within earshot have a 20...44...50% chance to block incoming attacks.

The block % scales like the old Guardian. Listed values are 0..12..15 protection prayers.
