Which build would you strongly reccomend. Block or non-block. Now I know block saves your ass so fucking much from BvC's/Smiters/Chargers/etc. but is it really worth the 1k life lost, 1kish (less) damage lost and the overall sex factor of such an amazing shield (Spirit)?

Nice guide by the way.

I reccomend Max block. Hands down. You don't lose 1k life. It's around 500-600. And nowhere near 1k less damage. Its actually around 500 tops. SS has the same sex factor my friend. And don't worry, you'll have a spirit in stash. smile.gif

Alright well I'm planning on making a MB Nec on the merge (so I can use Valk + SCirclet). But wouldn't a Homun be better than SS (you'd have more life - base strength). You'd have better res/dmg/mana/etc., although you do lose out on gg DR.

the dex you need isnt that much more. might as well. and you'll need ss in team dueling alot. when your amped you basically can die in 1 ww to any barb, so you really want max block.

DR > Res/dmg. You can make both up elsewhere. DR you usually have to sacrifice more than you gain. Not with an SS.

Reg homunc, and Up'd are the same blocking. (Up it anyway, the name is sexier tongue.gif)

you can always have ur upd homu in stash w/ 2x 20 dex ravens and some boots w/ dex i know marrows have 18 dex just in case you want to switch from ss to homu idk which one cost more in dex, but you can always use one or another in a diff situation like i have uped homu, p spirit, and ss all for different situations you gotta be prepared for anything thats thrown at you so i have around 2 main set ups on my nec and tons of variations just depends on what type of chars are hosting me

I use 2 setups. NvA, and NvN. There is honestly no switching between gear unless I'm dueling another bone nec. Then I only switch to opt out for 152 FHR.
