1 x Brute Force Solution, socketed in Templar area, to meet INT requirements for the bow

I didn't run the numbers, but if this jewel is still not enough, you can roll int on rings/amulet/boots, or as a mod on another rare jewel.
Or, as a quick and dirty solution, take 30 INT node.

Wouldn't you rather replace the golem with a Dying Breath/Leer Cast guardian?

Also, could Caustic Arrow now be viable as a main attack, instead of SA? The reasoning is that it ticks faster than your attack speed and is thus more likely to cull.

Edit: Just checked; the Caustic Arrow cloud cannot cull.

Why replace? I use both of em.

Its always funny reading how people complain about golem survivability when my golem died less times than I did.

And yeah culling is an important component, can't have an attack without it.

New jewel that lets you summon ranged weapons seems interesting, I wait when they'll drop in price to test em.

So you do! My bad, missed that.

I'm not a fan of SA, are Lightning Arrow, Ice Shot or RoA viable alternatives in your opinion (without changing the build)?

I think Split Arrow is the optimal choice for one simple reason - it fires tons of projectiles without GMP, which saves a gem slot allowing you to get more dmg.

RoA would be the worst choice since it is not a projectile.

Ice Shot & Lightning Arrow - viable, but you will probably need both GMP + Chain for these, so you will have to sacrifice one of the support gems from the main link. You will have to use 6L for these.
