FYI it’s a lot to read and if you really don’t care to understand his reasoning or the math behind it, skip down.

We have assumed the aspects give a full picture of how the math in D4 works but it’s actually quite wrong. I personally had a hunch but never tested it myself, but also had wrong assumptions confirmed by other necro mains. The big take away from this is that the Devs owe us Necros/Everyone proper tooltips that properly provide accurate theorycrafting.
The highest uptime and damage bonus for Bone Spear aspects for Offensive distribution according to the actual testing by OperatorOtter (14:00 in video):
Combo 2 & 9 wo/Viens
Combo 6 & 9 w/Viens
Combo 9 being the overall best:
- Edgemaster - Gloves
- Serration - Weapon
- Grasping Veins - Amulet
- Splintering - Ring
This affects infinimist/blood spear builds as well, ignoring the bone specific aspects (Edgemaster/Grasping being the same for those other builds).
