Synergies and practical checks
- It takes 17% off every physical blow at level 1 and 33% at level 5, more with gear’s +skills.
- Unlike Diablo II, it is a passive, always on. It is Damage Reduced: it adds to your items’, up to the cap of 50% .
- Its bone also takes 50% of every hit, of any element, before your life, until it has taken 100 at level 1 and 420 at level 5, or 1680 with Bone Wall learned to level 5 (+15% a Diablo II level of it; items’ +skills on Bone Wall don’t count). It grows back whole in 30 seconds. Diablo II’s takes all of a physical hit alone, until you cast it again.
- An item that casts Bone Armor gives it to any class, its bone too, for 30 seconds, at the item’s level or yours where yours is higher.
