did u ever played that?^^

I dont like level one amp or corpse explosion cuz the radius is small and doesnt hit a lot of dudes. Maybe a little less amp would be okay for more spear syn.

I'm more fond of a lower resist over amp build, if you can have sorcs with you who bothered to put points into static
LR + static + CE can wipe screens faster than donks can dream of, the difference between venom lords losing ~22% of their HP or ~6.25% per cast is the difference between tickling them and killing P8 mobs in a couple seconds
also lets FW sorcs take down OKs much faster, and also if someone's bringing a javazon
amp just helps barbs and a lot of good they do in P8 CS

granted you're sacrificing your own damage going LR, so its only good with those proper allies, and on cold sorcs it doesn't matter much
but its also possible to build a nova / CE necro. maximum possible 4.1k aoe nova ain't exactly amazing, but with LR its better than bone skills like ~2.2k spear in a line, especially since it works well casting infrequently with more CE spam
then theres always the option of max dim vision if you're real cute about it, which basically negates all threat in CS but doesn't help you clear any faster

Are you saying nova lower resist is better than amp spear, I get that elemental spells would dictate that.

i'd take LR/nova in a party P8, amp/spear in P1
if you need to get the first corpse rolling and can sustain death chains off it in P1, bone spear is better
but in parties the LR is more likely to be useful and spear takes way too long to kill anything and allies can help with that, so just softening mobs with nova is better.

i have, and ya lvl 1 sucks but with a few +skills it's not so bad, i'd put a few hard points in it, but i feel like maxing it is overkill.
seems to me more hard point into spear will be better off.
