To lower resist or not to lower resist

Evening.

I am trying a pure poison/curse necromancer. Now I have to remake him due to botching a few skill points that messed up the build. I am wondering what others would suggest as far as hard points into lower resist. My end gear will looks something like this.

Shako/Rare +2 skill circlet if I find one
Enigma
Death's Web
Homunculus
Trang-Ouls Claws
Marrowwalks
Arachnid Mesh
Mara’s
2 x SOJ
8 B & P charms
Necro Torch

I am also wondering if it is better to put hard points into bone armor or syn it with something else like bone wall or prison and have a crowd control?

Re: To lower resist or not to lower resist

Just put your points into bone armors synirgies the 10% bonus and the 8% from bone wall and bone prison is more hit pnts per lvl then putting points into BA alone. also just put 1 pnt into LR

p.s. srry if that was confusing iam at work trying too hurry .....

yeah 1 point into Lower res should be enough....excess points should go to summon tree (if you want) or 1 into bone armor and all into bone wall

Anything beyond level 10 Lower Resistance (- 55%/- 11% vs immunity) is really a waste from the point of view of breaking poison immunities; that's all that's required to break 110% immunities, and due to its diminishing returns you will never be able to get it high enough to break 115% immunities.

Unlike - % to Enemy Poison Resistance, LR only lowers poison resistance and doesn't increase poison length.
