[2.5] Pentagolem Hellfire - How to play PoE while watching TV(Shaper/Guardians)

Love this Build so far and I am excited to play this in Higher Tier Maps, but i have a question.

Why do you go for Beacon Corruption?
You seem to never Recast your Golems. Wouldnt the small nods for Minion Life/chaos Res and Damage be better here?
In case you do make use of Beacon of Corruption wouldnt it be better to go for more Health on our Golems?

I have always loved playing summoner but finding and recasting spectres is annoying. I am wondering about putting zombies into the build. I was thinking getting rid of the CWDT-IC and moving the arc totem to weapon then you free up a 4 link for zombies-min.damage-poison-something any thoughts? We would lose flame dash but could use an unset ring for that.

They are added defense and damage but from the looks maybe the extra damage isn't needed?

Just hoping to hear some thoughts.

Thanks

We will get 27% increased max. mana and 9% reduced mana cost of skills instead of 21% max mana and 8% reduced mana cost of skills.

Not a big deal, but depending on gear it could be the difference of having to spend more points on mana nodes to be able to re-summon the golems.

I forget to mention that its way better to spent 1 point in 4℅mana reserved near CI keystone then spending 2 points in reduced mana cost. Hope this helps you guys.

Its also better if u pick 3 hp/mana node on witch start then picking 3x 5℅ life on scion wheel. It gives us mana and 1% more hp.

Out of curiosity, has anyone cleared uul-netols and chayula's houses or shaper / uber atziri with flame goles this league? If so, any footage?

How come your golems doesn't lag behind? When I pop Quicksilver, I have to purposely go too far so minion reset on top of me.

I did go for the 2 small nodes with my Uber Lab points. No reason to get Beacon of Corruption. Well, it does give a little bit of chaos res and it is useful for PVP, but other than that, nothing. The additional 15% minion damage and 10% minion life are much better imho.

Those are actually 4%life/5%mana nodes. And if you get to Heart and Soul you get 16%life and 20%mana. Actually thought I had mentioned that before somewhere but maybe I forgot. Those should be the first mana nodes to get.

I was planning to do all the breaches this weekend. I don't see any problems with them as they are easier than high rolled T15 maps imho. Chayula might be a problem, but should be ok I think. Will report here when I did them.

The Golems you see in the video dont lag behind because he has asround 80% increased minion movement speed on his jewellery. If you want to have good ES and life on rings and amulet AND want movement speed that would probably cost you 10+ex in Breach for all 3 pieces. OP plays standard, the minion jewellery is much easier to get there.

But don't worry, I have no minion movespeed myself and still easily clear T15+

Is a lvl4 Empower gem outperformance the other support gems ? elemental focus for example??
(without a +1chest !!) (but on a 6l ofc)
when yes, its a big dmg boost ? or not worth it?

Empower 4 will easily outperform any support gem you can use.

I assume that when you are talking about a gem that costs 13ex (Empower lvl 4) you have a 21/20 Flame Golem gem.

If you do use Empower the base damage of the Golem will change from 684–1710 at 21 to 921–2302 at 24. Now we know that all 3 spells the Golems use scale off the base damage they have. Also, all other scaling we do does; support gems, jewels, minion damage, etc. That is an insane increase in power.

So If you can afford it, use it. But it gets even more crazy if you could use the Empower 4 in a +1 chest. That would add two more levels to the golems and increase their base damage to 1119–2797.


EDIT: I am obviously talking about support gems you would not use if you used Empower, like Elemental Focus. Spell Echo, Minion Damage and GMP are still higher priority than Empower.

EDIT2: Don't forget to always remember that that base damage increase is always for all 5 Golems. I know Elemental Focus would be too, but it makes the gap between Empower and Ele Focus much wider^^

thank you, gonna be my next thing i want to invest in.. but the prices.. holyshit :(

was thinking about to use it instead of ele focus, to get some chance to ignite/burn (on top of +dmg we get from empower :D)

My two Cents;

Get 1% more HP which is nothing, but still an improve, lol. Overall, really really good guide. I love it.
