Skills:
Put points to these skills in this order:
Teeth: 20
Bone Spear: 20
Lower Resist: 1
Bone Spirit: 20
Bone Prison: 20
Bone Wall: *Pending
*Note: All remaining points distribute here. Will max at lvl 98.
Overview:
With the primary equipment (best) listed, one should recieve +14 to Poison and Bone skills... as well as +14 to curses (if using trangs gloves), not only will one have very decent +skills, but also very decent faster cast... with select equipment (most favorable) one would obtain somewhere between 110%-130% faster cast, depending on whether one choses rare ring/soj combo or fcr ammy over maras. All prerequisites included, this build will max at lvl 98 w/lvl 20 bone wall, thus maxing all synergies for Spirit, and the 1 to Lower resist will allow an extra 60% magic damage (with +skills items). This is mainly a pk character, but will do decently pvm as long as they have supplemental party members, things like 'Conviction' and 'Holy Freeze' keep this build happy during pvm... u can also use decrepify and amp if u wish, and at lvl 15 (+skills items) each curse will substantially increase the destructive power of your party. Now all calculated out... w/o any p&b gc's this setup should bring you around 5.7k max at lvl 98.. and this is w/o the possible +11 from an inventory full of pb gc's and anni
and remember, this is all outside of the extra -60% magic resistance stacked on by lower res
so basically, this build enables one to tele as fast as a sorc, launch massive amounts of spirits between tele's... and basically rape any melee character w/lvl 15 im at your disposal... hope it helps
