PvP bonermancer

[sorceressgod]

just some questions for my new pvp bonermancer...

is 4.5k spirit damage enough?

and how do i counter other really good caster players(eg: sorc, wind druid); because i once fought a pretty good bonermancer and weird thing is that my blizz sorc owned him lol; and when trying out my lvl 80 bonermancer at 75 FCR bp, i became ez targeted by a fb sorc from her namelock lol(well of course i didn't think my spirit spams(was 2.5k damage btw that time) actually hitted her :S)

and last of all, any videos or tips/guides for bonermancing? and what's that website again for the bonermanc guide again?


thanks!!

At 75 FCR you're subject to harrasement from all spellcasters, including being an easy target for wind druids! My advice would be to switch some of your +skills items for FCR and try to reach the 125 FCR. At that breakpoint you can duel the sorcs nicely without any major FCR disadvantages.

I would assume that a 3.5k spirit with 125 FCR would definitely be better than a 4.5k spirit with a pitiful 75 FCR.

Fireball sorcs are naturally one of the bonemancer's weaknesses. My advice would be to play more defensively and let her come to your fields of bonespirits rather than you jump into her fireball fields. Keep moving back while she tries and chases you.

1: use a mix of spear and spirit or you will never win vs other casters.
2: 125% cast is needed vs casters
3: try get some ibs field happening
4: play defensive and let them make the mistakes
5: get a 4.5+k spear
6: dueling casters, go max vita no block needed
7: have some "big" revives such as urdars so they cant name lock you directly
8: tele shoot tele tele shoot tele shoot tele tele shoot. get your own dueling style and adapt to the situation. experiment, practice etc..
9: make sure your fhr is at a good fps otherwise windies will own you if they get 1 hit on.
10: teeth+spirits is also a good combo, shoot spirits follow up with teeth to make a stun field and spirits will be able to catch them.(only works if they have bad fhr and you have good fcr).

have fun :D

oh, here's some stats i forgot to mention ^^.

my necro

- 2195 life after BO
- 125 fcr
- full resists(except for fire - 62)
- 1.1k++ mana
- EMPTY INVENTORY except for 3 life scs and 3 mana/fhr scs and torch/anni, no gcs yet lol.
- current dmg: 3.2k spirit, 2.9k spear
- fhr = 90 fhr
- no max block



i defintely do not have too much mana problems, because i've got a low-req insight on switch. but funny thing is, when i'm tging people by standing a lil' bit further from town and spamming spirits towards it, nobody got killed from that lol.

when retreating and when i wanna spam a spirit field, should i spam in the direction where i'm retreating? or spam spirit forward and retreat in the opposite direction??

thanks!!!

well basically i think my necro pretty much meets the gg requirements lol, but only lack a hell lot of damage and stacked resists :S

well you're missing block. unless you're dueling only casters.

[sorceressgod]

meh, i prefer using bone walls lol, those things saved me many times from bowazon attacks today... well, except really good BvCs though..

Teeth > Windy

I've played windy for quite a long time never killed a really good pnb once, and I'm a pretty damn good druid. Now I run with 99 fcr which hurts a lot, but the teeth can kill the summons quick and just like someone up there said play defensive, and if you do we're teleing into your teeth >_>. If the druid has low FHR you can also get them into a teeth-lock kind of like a nado lock, only if you can use teeth properly they won't even attempt to namelock you because they will die. Pnb is one of the biggest counters to a windy.

I'm actually considering switching to a pnb but changing it up by using psn nova in the build as a hybrid, In FCR races vs characters like FB/blizz sorcs or even BvCs it can save you, hit once and play defensive. I would go pure psn because it's a ton of fun and it's good but I don't feel like losing to 95 psn resist. Afterall that's why I quit sorc =p.

try SS vs bvc it helps alot. you could im them and make them ww your walls while you tele/spirit

your dmg should be fine after you get your gcs

i prefer max block but if your a skilled bone wall/prison user iether could work i guess
