Bone Necro needs a buff

So, I have been playing a Bone Necromancer for the past weeks and even if with GG gear

Bone Spear only reaches around 5k damage. It's nice to have

Bone Prison and

Bone Wall and kind of makes killing bosses pretty easy. In terms of overall kill speed (with 125 fc) it's still kind of a disappointing experience. Would be nice to see some buffs in the next version. Maybe just increasing the synergy values or let

Concentration aura also buff the necros Bone skill damage (similar to

Blessed Hammer)? What is your take on it?

Lower Resist should include magic resist

No offense but 5k doesn't really sound like gg gear.

Bone Spear and Spirit dmg is fine as you can reasonably push 25-30k dps with either of them.
Got no problems clearing P8 with mine.

Teeth could use a (significant) buff though as that does fall behind noticeably in many cases (higher player counts, larger mobs). Up to the synergy bonus for that to 25-30% and call it a day imo.

Lower res including magic really isn't needed and honestly would be a bit overkill for

Spear/Spirit which are already rather strong.

Apart from the

Teeth thing, Bone necros are honestly in a pretty good spot, now that we got the new RotW gear to play with.
The only things I would still reasonably see as potential fair changes would be lowering the mana cost of

Bone Spirit a bit and increasing the synergy bonus for Spirit,

Spear and

Teeth by 33% across the board (on top of the

Teeth buff noted above) while also removing

Bone Wall as a synergy for all of them.
The latter would effectively leave the damage unchanged but would drop the comparably ridiculous skill point requirements for a Bone necro. Precious few other builds require a full 102 skill points solely to get their core abilities maxed out.

Is this even possible?

I have never seem or heard of

Bone Spear reaching 10k in damage with full synergy and with max gears let alone 25+k in damage…

Unless Bone spears got ninja buff past year that i didnt know about…

Not just damage, it's damage per second he was talking about.

The main issue with necro is every necromancer build is really just a way to kill 1 monster than you become a

Corpse Explosion necro

I dont think Snorki is implying dmg per second.. otherwise he would stated so? If he did, it still doesnt apply well for

Bone Spear.

One cant reliably stand still and shoot as fast as possible n expect 25-30k output within 1 second assuming the aiming is always perfect and not get interrupted by mobs, so to me, the sheet damage for

Bone Spear tells a better story as its THAT amount of dmg one can expect it to deal per hit.

So my original statement still stands

You should be a little above level 40 on BSpe / BSpi, I suppose. Adding the new reduction on magic res, it's better than before and still a good allrounder.

And Schnorki's suggestion is almost the same as mine, except that I'd unsynergize

Bone Prison instead of

Bone Wall (if I remember well

Bone Prison is forbidden in PvP while BW is not).

Bone Prison becomes a 1 point Wonder,

Bone Armor less powerful.
