Who came up with this "feature" for AOKL, casting bone prison when struck? I knew sooner or later this was going to get me killed. Today it happened. I was hit, then boom, bone prison. I was walled in with two of my attackers, I couldn't ran away and none of my summons could help, before I knew it, I was dead. Also, I don't know much about P&B skills, but it looks more like bone wall rather than prison. This totally blows.

dang. maybe you'll want someone to take it off your hands so it doesnt happen again. (hintedy hint-hint)
I suggest putting a point into bone prison. If you get trapped, cast BP on the monsters you are trapped with, it will wall them off from you. This works for teamates also.

Yes it's annoying, have you thought of using your AoKL to summon then switching to a gull dagger/Rhyme for the MF?
If/when you get enigma this ceases to be much of a problem.
So what if you died? Do you play hc?

No, it was no hardcore. It is just that I was so impressed with how powerful this build is and then die like that. I have never played hardcore and was not always careful with my characters, having played mostly barbs. It is only the second time I died all the way through NM.
And ya, how do people deal with it in hardcore?
Therem they only use aokl to prebuff, and wear gravenspine or a golemlords wand or something instead.
You could also get an amulet with teleport charges and tele out

It happens to me now and then that I run through a fire and the BP triggers. Without Enigma, that's the worst. You stand there getting hit by this fire over and over and you're hoping that the BP disappears before it triggers again. Most of the time it's a slow death - either that or start a new game.

Reminds me of the Occy teleport feature, most of the time it teleports you into a nearby mob instead of to safety.
In theory occy might kill you, but in practice if it teleports you to another mob they generally teleport you again, and again, until you're not getting hit anymore.
Bone prison doesn't really have any benefits, if you are being melee'd.

Yep. That happened to me ealier too. Basically, I was just standing getting burned to death with nothing that I can do.
