Gelmindor's Marrow Guards
These bracers are pure Necromancer loot: they make your Simulacrums hit far harder with Bone Spear. Because Simulacrums mirror your own skills, you effectively multiply your Bone Spear volleys without doing anything more than casting the skill. That makes the bracers a staple of any build centered on Simulacrum and Bone Spear.
Paired with the built-in critical hit chance, they deliver exactly the stats such a build already wants. Practical tip: make sure your Simulacrums are always active before you dive into larger packs, since their bonus damage carries much of your total output. Refresh them in good time so the bonus never lapses.
Roll range and scope
The bonus rolls between 300 and 400% and applies only to Bone Spears cast by your Simulacrums, not to the spears you throw yourself. A high roll is worthwhile because the power does nothing else, and Primal Ancient copies deliver the full 400%. Only the Necromancer benefits.
Bone Spear runes
Bone Spear costs 20 Essence and, unruned, pierces through all enemies for 500% weapon damage as Physical. The runes each shift the focus:
- Shatter detonates on the first enemy hit and damages everything within 15 yards.
- Blood Spear raises the damage to 650% weapon damage at the cost of 10% Health.
- Blighted Marrow grows 15% stronger for every enemy it passes through and deals Poison damage.
- Crystallization switches to Cold and reduces the attack speed of enemies hit.
Physical damage as an elemental bonus suits every rune except the last two.
Cube, stats and companions
In Kanai's Cube the Marrow Guards' power sits in the armor slot, which lets you wear different bracers on your wrists. The fixed stat is 4.5–6% Critical Hit Chance, and they roll 416–500 Strength, Dexterity or Intelligence. Frequent companions are Luxurious Bauta, Sophisticated Vest, Lavishing Gloves, Elegant Pants, Haunted Visions and Krysbin's Sentence.
