Necromancer far have you [Music] wandered this bone splinters build is out of control it destroys every type of content in this game dealing 1 billion DPS against bosses and absolutely demolishing hordes all without ever needing a single Uber unique this build is fast it does insane damage it's tanky and it's unlike anything in this entire game so let's go into the gear breakdown and I can show you exactly what's making this build so strong so I won't be talking too much about the specific subsets I'm running as my gear is kind of bad but I
will have a build planner in the description that will show you what you should be running so first let's look into what makes this build work in our necklace we have shattered spirit this says that whenever you cast bone Spirit you cast 18 bone splinters in all directions what this means is when you sit inside the boss's hit box all 18 of those shards will damage the boss and those shards get boosted from the bone Splinter projectile cast twice meaning we don't just get 18 we get more than that and on top of that they're
also getting The Shard of ve theal Buffs I don't have a Max roll on this but if you had a Max roll on this you'd be seeing even more damage than you saw in the intro now it might look weird that I'm running Sho instead of the new crown of Lucian but there's a weird interaction between crown of Lucian Shard of veral and and the shattered spirit and that's because shattered Spirit actually doesn't cost Essence despite having the essence on Shard of Vil this is because this is considered a free cast so it won't trigger
things that have uncast abilities and unfortunately Crown Evolution only works when the original thing that you're casting has Essence so because of that I'm choosing to run Sho but you can absolutely Swap this for any rare helmet of your choice Uber uniques are not required and in our chest plate we're running shielding storm we are a bone storm build so it would make sense to have shielding storm in the build somewhere now if you had tyal as might I would definitely recommend running it over a chest plate like this and moving shielding Storm Into the
legs but a chest plate like this is totally fine I ended up opting for Essence per second which helps a little bit with a great feast cost um it's not really mandatory but it is nice and great feast is a very very good multiplier for the build so just alleviating that a little bit is very good and in our pants are running Harden bones to give us the damage reduction now the biggest thing about pants is you want rings to bone spiners on them and you want them with a greater AIX this is going to
give you a lot more damage I currently don't have so if you have that you're getting a lot more damage than you saw in the intro after that in our boots we're running ghost walker so this is probably one of the most important things about the build I'll get into it later when we get into the mechanics breakdown but you want to be able to get your hit box inside the boss's hit box and a lot of times that's really hard to do and ghost walker is how we do it because we'll proc Unstoppable with
blood mist and we come out of blood Mist we're able to walk inside of the boss or inside of an elite pack and it lets us get all of our damage off this is non-negotiable you need ghost walker after that we're running moonrise this is by far the best aspect in the entire game for any basic attack build and we use it to full strength the attack speed helps us cast bone Spirits more often the basic attack bonus gives us huge damage on our bone splinters it's just perfect and then finally we running grassing veins
you know get a 40% damage modifier get the crit rate it feels good now one thing I do want to talk about though is these tempers these rapid tication tempers I have them on both both of my rings and on my necklace I have bone Spirit cool down you do not need a bone Spirit cool down after you hit Sho but until you hit Sho you do want one roll of bone Spirit cool down and two rolls of Rapid tication these rapid ocations are going to keep your bone storm up 100% of the time so
definitely pick those up and make sure that you're grabbing the right tempers in the right places another very important temper is these lucky hit chance to freeze so in season 5 they buffed the lucky hit of these Bon splinters and when you're proing this many bone splinters on a boss this fast it means you stun a boss so quickly so you want to make and I'll break this down in more detail when we get into the gameplay mechanics but I wanted to point out these tempers in specific to make sure that you are picking these
up alongside the chance for bone spliters get cast twice these make up the most important tempers so I wanted to cover them here so for our skill tree we're maxing up bone splinters as this is all of our damage we're picking up light all the way to the damage modifier we're maxing out hute flesh we're picking up blood Mist all the way up to the corpse generation we're picking up death approach for the movement speed death Embrace for the damage reduction Amplified damage for the Amplified damage and decrepify after that we're picking up corpse tendrils
all the way up to the vulnerable upgrade we're maxing out necrotic carapus which is giving us fortify which is just a free 15% damage reduction and we're only putting one Point into bone spirit because one point is all you need the important part is that we're picking up enhanced bone Spirit now this is very important because every time that we crit with bone Spirit it reduces this uh cool down by 7 seconds and you'll notice we only have 6 seconds of cooldown this means every time that you crit it comes back off cool down and
it's ready to cast again this is what's giving the build its signature machine gun play style and it's super important that you cap out your crit rate for it after that we're picking up Dreadful bone Spirit now this one isn't that impactful but it does help you kind of like maintain your essence that way when you go to the next pack of enemies you have enough of your decrepify your blight and you can kind of just do your stuff it's not a super impactful point but it is nice to have around after that we put
one point into sertion to move down the tree we're maxing out rapid ocation maxing out evulsion and maxing out compound fracture these two make up a lot of damage they're super important after that we're putting one point in inspiring leader this is just kind of like the last floating point it can really go anywhere that you wants we're picking up three points in standalone three points of momentum Mory picking up bone storm and lastly aifi Essence now aifi Essence is a little bit awkward in the build because after you cast bone spirit it's going to
decrease your Mana to zero that means all the splinters that you get at first aren't going to get oside essence but because each one of those splinters are giving you Essence it means those ones that double proc they're generally going to be above 50 essence you do get a bit of a damage multiplier on them so in our Book of the Dead we are running Skelter skirmishers for the crit rate we're running cold Mages for the vulnerable damage and we are running the Iron Golem sacrifice for the crit damage these are very standard there's no
real reason to pick anything else up we just enjoy the damage now in our Paragon we're running a very standard Paragon we're running Amplified Essence picking up the HP corporeal also picking up the HP picking up sacrificial exploits control and finally territorial now if you do not have tials and shap I'd recommend territorial but if you have all your Uber uniques I would recommend gravekeeper because gravekeeper is such a big damage modifier but this build does have to stay inside of enemy's hit boox to do its damage which means you are expecting to take a
lot of damage so definitely make sure you're not skiing out on the Dr pick it up where you can and when you pick up materials and Sho feel free to grab gay peeper but I would recommend territorial until you get there so there are a couple important mechanics you need to know before you play this build the first one being the Synergy between ghost walker and shattered Spirit which makes of a mechanic I like to call Sweet spotting so you can see if I walk up to the boss like this and I cast bone Spirit
no matter how close I get to the boss all these shards go out in different directions right but if I cast blood Mist to become Unstoppable and I walk inside the boss's hit box all of a sudden all these shards that were going off in different directions are now hitting the boss right this makes up the core play style of the build and it's what gives it its signature machine gun play style this is very important to do both on bosses and Elites learning how to do this is what's going to make or break your
ability to play this build and it's something I would really recommend practicing before you go out and try pushing pits with it so another core mechanic that I wanted to show off was how hard we're abusing rapid alific so this build relies on having 100% up time in bone storm because the build needs 100% crit rate to be able to proc the enhanced bone spirit and this enhanced bone spirit is what's giving us the entire machine gun play style so upkeeping arquer is very important so therefore upkeeping bone storm is very important and the beauty
of this build is when you're running a machine gun placed out of a build look how fast my bone storm comes off cool down right when we're just casting away we are constantly getting these rapid hfic procs and this is what's going to help keep our bone storm up 100% of the time and Keep Us Alive 100% of the time because this barrier buff that we got from this season is massive so make sure you're making full full use of this and when you're running around a dungeon just make sure you're firing off bone Spirits
here and there even if they're not doing a lot of damage because you don't have everything grouped or you're not sweet spotting just casting these is going to give you the movement speed from uh moonrise it's going to lower the cool down of your bone storm so just make sure you get in the habit of just casting these whenever you see a mob so it's not just bone storm that we're modulating the cool down of using decrepify we're able to abuse blood mist and corpse tendrils to constantly get their cool Downs back up because of
the lucky hit properties of bone splines so let me show you how that looks so first we get St in The Sweet Spot and then we decrepify and then we just go right you can see my cool Downs are already back that's because when you're firing this many splinters decrepify and these lucky hit chance to proy C's they constantly go off and this is how I've been able to stagger bosses like the clip I have which should be playing the background that against one den mother I was able to stagger it twice in a 40c
boss fight this build is crazy strong at applying lucky hit chances so this last mechanic is a little bit niched but it can help you out in a lot of situations so it's good to know how to do so if you're blood mist is on cool down so you can't get the ghost walker or say you're against a Pit Boss and you wanted to like set up the sweet spot without using your blood Mist so you can sa it for like a boss mechanic echo or something you can actually Dash inside of the enemy's hit
box like this it's very hard to do and it's very hard to space but when you learn how to do this it can save you in a lot of situations and it can make the build a lot more consistent and a lot more safe so just knowing that this is a thing can help you out on Lost situations so just keep that in mind and kind of like practice it as you play and yeah that wraps things up for my bones SMS guide this is a build that I've been theorycrafting for the past two months
and it's such a fun and unique play style and it really offers something that like no other build in the game offers play style wise it's very rewarding to learn and it's very fun so get out there try it and I hope you guys enjoy it thanks for watching
