Why Marrows aren't that good....

[King.Ong]

Ok...i jus thought of this so this is jus a suggestion...plz don flame i may have missed something.

Imagine the PRO nec's Build....

SHAKO +2
HOTO +3
ENIGMA/COH +2
SPIDERWEB +1
2x Soj +2 (or something else)
Maras +2
Homon +2 all
1x Anni +1
10x P/b Gc +10

That all equals +25...so that means lv 45 to ALL SKILLS....

If u max Bone Spear, Spirit, Teeth, Prison and Wall, ure Bone Spirit damage will be...according d2items.com...9794-10431 DMG!!!!

If u only max Bone Spear, Spirit, Teeth, and Wall, NOT PRISON and use lv 33 Marrowalk bug, ure Bone Spirit damage will be...9146-9741

I DO NOT KNOW how accurate d2items skills chart is...but this is jus a rough estamation ty ^^

Thats what you get from a merchant site, false information. Those calculations are totally wrong. +skills dont get added on to synergies. By that I mean you can only get level 20 synergies from each of the bone skills involved.

Thats the beauty (or cheapness, depends on who you talk to), of marrowwalks. Without a single point in prison, it adds level 33 synergy to bone prison, which is impossible otherwise. This is why a marrow necro will ALWAYS do more damage than a non marrow one (given that both has the same amount of +skillers), because the marrow necro is getting a lv 33 synergy, while the non marrow can only get 20.

I think too the example is wrong. I have two necros one with prison points, another without and marrows, and dont work as you say.

Yup...+skills do not boost synergies...and MarrowWalks do...that's the beauty if this item and why so many Necs use it. +skills still is valid for boosting the individual skill trees, and worth every charm IMHO, but the damage calculation are wrong when it comes to the synergy bonuses from +skill gear.

+skill tab does give a synergy boost, +particular skill will not boost the synergy...dont believe me? Get a hammerdin with maxed snyergies and check his exact hammer dammage with Maras, now try it with Perfect Seraphs Hymn, the +2 defensive auras boots the hammer marginally (take off conc to see the difference)....

That chart is way wrong, I have all that equip with the marrow bug and i do about 6k. I could get a little more but i dnot see how in the world they go dmg up 2 10k. Crazy.

[darkmog84]

yes sasha u r quite a bit far off with that estimated dmg ur posting, u should have about 5-6.5k spear and spirit, there is no possible way to get 10k spear or spirit with legit items
