Bowazons, Trapsassins, and Hammerdin's owning my Bonemancer

Are my items just not good enough? These guys all stomp me. The only kill I got on a hammerdin was when he didn't realize he wasn't in town and one other time when I just barely managed to stand in a place where his hammers weren't quite hitting. I don't seem to have a hope in Hell against trapsassins or guided arrow bowazons. I can evade the traps but the second I run into something or try to take a shot, I get wasted and I can't seem to do anything to avoid those arrows.

I'm 52nd level with enough items to have my bonespear at about 1k damage with (I think) at least a 50% faster cast rate. I've got my resistances pretty well maxed up, but no absorb. Any advice on how to fight these people? I think vitality and energy are around 120. Do I just not have enough health?

Pretty typical build. Bonespear is now at 28 and I'm guessing I've got about 20-25 in synergies, mostly in wall and prison. Other points have gone to curses and a handful in gumby. Can't remember all of my items ATM, but I've got a not-so-great white wand that I traded for - no plus all skills but +2 bone spear, a triple socketed tower shield with p diamonds, a p-diamond socketed wipermagi armor, peasant crown warhat, phys. resist 20 amulet or necro +1 amu, waterwalk boots, crappy gloves, a set item belt (which I can't recall but I mostly took it for defense rating and run speed), and the rings are just very random rares or resists to fit the occasion. I also keep the unique ghost armor around for duels with ice Sorcs (immunity to freeze), but prefer the lower D vipermagi for the casting bennies.
