Let φ: C→ ℙ1 be a degree d cover of curves. In work by Castryck, Zhao and the author, we showed how one can attach to each partition λ of d a multi-set of scrollar invariants of λ with respect to φ. We studied these invariants when φ is simply branched, and related these new scrollar invariants to known geometric data. In this article we show how one can remove this simple branching condition, using the notion of Sd-closure as developed by Bhargava and Satriano. With this new framework, we are able to generalize all results from this work to arbitrary covers C→ ℙ1. In particular, we obtain a syzygy-free interpretation for the splitting types of the syzygy bundles in the Casnati--Ekedahl resolution of an arbitrary cover φ: C→ ℙ1. By using the Maroni bound, we are able to give new general bounds on these splitting types.
