Hi, I've got a PvP Bone Necro, and I'm pretty set on using Spirit as my shield. However, the only drawback that Spirit's got is the extemely low blocking percentage. Is it worth it to pump dexterity to achieve 75% blocking, or is it better worth my while to pump vitality? Or...should I go for a mix, and get say...50% blocking? At level 90, I've got ~450 stat points saved, and I'm guessing in order to attain max block with Spirit I'd have to pump ~300 points into dexterity. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: Oh, and apparently, I will have to get 315 dexterity on my necro to get 70% blocking, which leaves me with ~150 stat points into vitality, or 300 hp. On the flip side, putting all the points into vitality will net me 900 hp...hmm...

Dont bother with max block /w spirit. Thats what homonculus is for.

Spirit is decent for a non-blocker caster (if he has the str, most marrowmancers only have to invest minimally to achieve it), but if you want a good block rate go with homoncolus on a bone nec.
