also question about elemental equilibrium. this does not affect golem attacks at all? meaning if they get hit by fire attack they get 25% fire resist, correct? only ball lighting or whatever i use will proc that passive.

For how expensive this build is I don't think I'm satisfied with how "fast" the golems clear maps. While the golems do have insane damage and eventually become immortal, it feels like such a hassle to run maps.

When running maps I have to back track way to much and I feel like I have to "babysit" my golems as in run slowly past all the packs of mobs so my golems actually kill them. I thought I would have been able to just run through the map without having to constantly guide my golems every couple of seconds.

Convocation helps but on an 8 second CD it doesn't get the job done. Flesh offering + Vaal haste also helps but overall it still feels like its to much work to clear maps and has slowish clear speed.

With that said.. I still don't have all the required items due to the skyrocket in the prices of jewels. What I do have is seven primordial harmony's and the one primordial might. I still don't have the anima stone which means I'm missing out on 2 golems.

How is mapping for everyone else? Can you actually just run through the map and kill most of the monsters without stopping? Do those 2 extra golems make the difference between slow and fast clear speed? Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong? I'm trying hard to enjoy this build but it doesn't seem to be working for me.

You are probably doing something wrong in regards to your pathing. You do not need to backtrack at all; your golems will teleport to you if you are far enough. If you can afford to free up 3 gem slots, then link them to a Lightning Warp/FS/Reduced Dur. setup to get around and your golems will teleport to you much more often.

I use convocation (without reduced CD enchant currently) very sparingly and onyl when I need them to clump up and kill a specific mob. Otherwise, flesh offering + Lightning Warp in an open map is very smooth 99% of the time.

At level 86, I am averaging about 220 mil/hour experience per Shaped Mesa, for example.

checked you setup and i now have about the same setup...need a few more enchants and crystal belt with resist on them, lowering the 11 quantity isnt much of a loss)

handy tip i found that the mana you have left over on your setup a tad low so just below the CI skill on the tree is the infuence notable the first notable is 4% reduced mana reservation...its a pretty nice boost in mana for just 1 skillpoint..(and you have a max lvl ball lightning that cost 27 mana while a lvl 1 just 14)


my chars are viewable so you can check it out :)

"20% increased Golem Damage for each Type of Golem you have Summoned"

10 Primordial Harmony at 20% is 200% damage Per Golem type out.
Flame=200
Ice=200
lightning=200
Chaos=200
Stone=200

Only 1 golem of each type will provide for the bonus meaning 1 flame + 1 Ice = 400% the same as 3 flame + 3 ice = 400%

It IS how it works.

so what is better for mapping and bosses?
1) 6 flame golems that gain power from 6 gems
2) 4 flame + lightning + ice
3) 2 flame + lightning + ice + Chaos + stone
5) high es shield and 5 diffrent golems
and what is more efficient high es shield or +1 golem from clayshaper.

How do you guys afford this build? Did you start with another build and then rerolled in this?

I am at dried lake, with 4 Golems and crappy gear.

For the jewels, 6L and enchanted hubris I need 30ex+?! Just farm dried lake till my eyes bleed?
With 4 Golems, do I go 4 Fire; 3 fire and 1 other; 2 fire 2 other; or all different?

Indeed this is question for me too... So if first golem cast his fire spell or hit mob get +25 resist to fire, 5 other golems casting and hitting enemy that already have +25 resist from first hit of first golem, so this seems big downside to this build where we can't mix element dmg more frequent, and only way this skill woud give -50 resist to fire on enemy is ball lightning wich have time to travel and casting or arc totem but than we woud not have scorching ray totem that stucks -fire resist. Overall it seems the only one profit is on boss where we are alive and casting ball lightning... its look so questionable. Do we need to take off this passive point on shpaer or guards cus we will die and woun't be able to cast ball lightning ?

You misunderstand the functional mechanics of EE.

YOU have EE. Your golems do not. They cannot trigger EE, they only benefit when YOU trigger EE for them

Scorching Ray does not HIT, therefore it cannot trigger EE. I am using it on a totem for extra fire res pen and it works very well.

Ball lightning, Arc totem- these HIT so these can trigger EE.

Triggering EE for your golems is 50% MORE damage, not increased :)
