Default jagged bones?

what is the point of jagged bones? i dont understand how its good in bomber builds. cant you just get a shabling to make a jagged horror? and its not like you need to save your minions, you can make 2 per corpse with animate bone minions(only for bombing)

B/c Jagged gives you EVEN MORE to bomb with...shambling is too slow for bomber imo. Just put jagged on a shitload of bone minions watch them explode over and over...
What else were you planning to run? Aura of the Lich?

Explosive Creation works well with it, and it makes a free minion to Death Nova up.

I'd use Glyph of Renewal or Assassin's Promise with Shamblings over Jagged.

If Jagged went back to it's 5sec recharge, I'd probably start MM'ing again on a few occasions

shambling+jagged =2horrors yes

its good on bomber builds as bone minions are such low level and squishy they almost guarantee dying,JB helps to keep the minion wall as close to full strength as possible,rather than it disintegrate totally within 5 seconds of battle

Coz having free minions jumping up is cool, and it makes bone minions less crap.

Having a bomb that gives u a stronger minion upon explosion is not a bad thing...

Jagged bones is also usefull where bodies are in short supply 2 mm necros can easily keep an army going indefinitly.

As long as you start with one body you can create an army it just takes time.
