Aegis boon only gives you HP back from blocking, not raise block rate. Outmaneuver is the skill you're looking for.

When fighting Ifrit, I seemed to get a decent amount of blocks in, so I guess it just has to do with your shield's block rate + Outmaneuver.

I do have a question though, since I never figured out how Spirits Within worked reliably in XI. Does it do more damage with higher HP or lower HP?

Aegis Boon blocks the next attack. It is a force block, outmaneuver increases block rate but isn't a force.
