Vita should be defined at base dex and under 35% Block IMO. For reference, a budget Necro with Hoto + Maras + Raven Frost hits 19% block with base dex. In the last FPK tournament on D2GA, I believe up to 35% block was allowed. This seems to be a fair number IMO.
As for Jess' rule suggestions, I think they make a lot of sense. Hard to TvN without bos. The moment you get golem slowed (without bos), would have to run away for 15 secs to wait out the slow. This only prolongs the duel unnecessarily. My thoughts are should not ban BOS nor Martial arts, but if you ABSOLUTELY had to limit the options then should be one of the either (up to player to decide):
1) Allow martial arts and fireblast while fade is on
2) Allow BOS, but no martial arts or fireblast
6 fpa trap laying speed should never be allowed. Do you understand how broken that is? I'm sorry but allowing BOS even with no martial or fireblast is still incredibly broken right now.
It's not that hard to TvN without BOS when necros don't have wsg. Especially because if you build your sin correctly right now you can attain 8FPA lay speed with fade (1 fpa faster than legacy d2). That means utilizing a swirl - > wof - > ls - > stomp FB is extremely effective if one upkeeps shadow while doing it, and from the tournament yesterday, wherein the sin won the matchup they didn't even employ optimal strategy or execution to win (referencing jess vs walk).
/e 8 fpa lay speed also equates to 8 fpa fire blasts
