Actually the way I read the Path Notes:

It means that when a character other than a Necro equips Marrowwalk and say Bonehew, the Bone Spear on Bonehew will not be synergised.

Have you tested this? I havn't been able to get on so I couldn't see if my bonenecro has suffered.

If I tested it I would yell it from the roof tops. I can’t test it since I don’t have Marrowwalks. I didn’t like the buggy boots.

No, I think it means that marrowalks were officially judged as being bugged, along with other such items. But you could be right Mantis.

What is true now, however, is that the "feature" vs "bugged" debate will officially end when we can log on in hour or so.

Fate of bone necro is fine if indeed marrowalks are bugged; boots only added about 15%. The leftover skill points were really not that important imo.

It appears that they don't consider them unbalancing if they weren't going to fix it. In that case I think it's dumb that they "fixed it" for other characters. Those Strafing Brand bow zons looked really promising. I wish Bliz would stop eliminating build potential for no good reason.

Hmm.. can somebody test this? I just saw a Bnetter claim that he tried it and that his marrows no longer gave the synergies on his necro.

If you don't have either, send me a PM on the boards.

Just thought you guys might want to know. It's official the bug has been fixed. I just checked right now.

**Mad Mantis** · 01-08-2005, 22:40

Sure, screw over about half a dozen unique Necro builds, but don’t do anything about those Hammerdins.

Oh, I don’t know if you have any skill points left, but could you do another little test? Could you place 1 point in BP and then see if the bug works?
