The effects of this item scale with Item Power.

Lidless Wall (Unique Shield) – Necromancer Drop

The Lidless Wall will provide a Lucky Hit skill that, while you have Bone Storm active, has a 5-25% of spawning an additional Bone Storm at an enemy’s location if they are hit while outside of your current Bone Storm.

Each active Sacrifice you have will increase the chance of this skill triggering by 25% and the number of Bone Storms you can have by +1.
