So I've seen people taking advantage of Divine Shield with Aegis Aurora and thought that this defensive layer would probably work really well with an Absolution build. To that end, I've come up with a rough concept that I'd love input on specifically whether this may actually be viable enough to get through the end game (A9 Sirus). To clarify, I do not believe this type of build will have sufficient damage to do things like Wave 30 Delirium or some of the other end end game stuff but it might be viable enough to get through a good amount of the endgame:

I've always found that PoB doesn't do a great job of calculating Absolution minion damage. They always seem to more damage than what you'd think just looking at the PoB. Shield Charging around really doesn't do anything other than get you from place to place (Fortify is a nice little bonus but I don't really think its NEEDED for this build given how much physical damage reduction and mitigation it has already). On bosses or sturdy packs drop or move Hydrosphere, blap it with Absolution in the middle of the pack then let your minions do work.
Is this a terrible idea? I've always wanted to make Absolution "work" and this seems like a decent version of it accepting that it isn't going to measure its DPS in Shapers per Second but should be tanky enough for that to not matter all that much.
