Bone Break, yes, since it increases the damage a lot (almost 5x) on enemies that are cursed with Amplify Damage.

Fire sunder is not worth it imho.

FF's reduced enemy fire res works but the + to fire skills does not.
Same as with fire sunder, not worth it. There are much etter options.

Skeleton Mages don't inherit the -res from Flickering Flame (or other gear). They do inherit the sunder effect, if you have it equipped at the time you summon them, so they can damage fire immunes, but will only do 5% damage unless you have Conviction and/or cast Lower Resist.

From Amazon Basin's page on Corpse Explosion:

Considered a Fire Skill, but +% Fire Skill Damage from items and Fire Mastery does not apply to its fire damage.

So skill bonus would apply? Flickering Flame doesn't give fire skill damage

Indeed, +Fire Skills will raise Corpse Explosion's level. The CE damage is based on corpse HP and cannot be increased by +dmg% (only indirectly by lowering the target's res).

I stand corrected.

Yes, I run both sunders (old Bone Break, and renewed -10% fire) and FF.

Magefist does boost Fire Golem and Corpse Explosion by +1 level. That's it.

For low items I also accept: Perfect Amys, Ral, Hel, Tokens, Keys. Please don't offer runes lower than Pul (with the named exceptions).

If + to fire skill damage would work on Corpse Explosion , every Necromancer will run full Trang Owl set and nothing else due to Fire Mastery O skill. But in fact it only can increase Necromancer fire balls and such damage. which is nice but not endgame.

"enhanced damage" only applies to physical attacks.
Corpse Explosion is a spell attack, dealing physical damage.

Those are 2 different things.
Same for physical damage from a druid's Tornado or enhanced damage from e.g. Phoenix.
