Bone Spear is a classic necromancer build that has been through a ton of changes over the seasons.
Lidless Wall and
Indira's Memory memory have brought
Bone Spear fully back into the meta, making the build solid for both Speed Farming and for Tower Pushing. The addition of
Aspect of Decaying Humerus has also allowed
Bone Spear to take full advantage of Necromancer's plethora of Shadow Damage multipliers, giving a much needed damage boost. Overall
Bone Spear currently finds itself as a solid A-Tier build, and is pretty solid in all forms of content.

Strengths and Weaknesses
- Solid Damage
- Amazing Bossing
- Good Pit Pusher
- Bone Spear doesn't quite reach the damage of the top tier builds
Build Variants
This version of the build is much slower than the Speed Farm variation with the inclusion of
Aspect of Grasping Veins and , but deals significantly more damage. The main difference is going to be a few aspect changes, so pay most attention to that when swapping between versions.

How it Works
This build can easily clear Torment 4 bosses even without uber uniques, and with them it just scales out of control. As mentioned above it is a very bad farming build, so I advice you to have a build like Blood Surge or Minions in your armory for farming easy content, and then swap to Blood Spear to destroy hard content.
