Sure, Liege of the Primordial is essential for the extra golem and their elemental immunity, this alone beats anything Necromancer has to offer. Paragon is nice insofar as we take reduced elemental damage after the first hit... other than that our ascendancy class hasn't got much to offer.

What's so special about my Lightning Golem? Isn't IIQ, IIR and Culling Strike pretty much standard? (if one can afford IIQ, that is)

I did not use iiq on lightning golem. I always had the idea about using it in our flame golem links but it slowed the clear speed so i had to sell it.
Now i realized we could use it on lightning golem. Since the league end is near and at the league iiq gem prices are sky high i bought one at standart for later usage.
I could afford iiq but i dont wanna pay the 15 ex difference since i wont play golamencer that much.
We may call this build golemantalist since we dont use the necromancer ^^

Indeed.
Greetings Golem Masters!
Need some advice on my next gear levelling step.
My character - cmdrGolem (public profile).
Currently I'm on merc act3, and I'm running out off currency for the next gear upgrade.
So I want some MF farming.
But I'm very squishy now.
Should I firstly change my Tabula on desent 5L chest (6L is too much expensive for me now)?
Is there any chanse to use 5L fire-golem gem setup with Rarity gem?
Can I successfully farm some currency on merc Dried Like, or should I rush forward to endgame content instead?
Thanks for advice!
Definitely the strongest build I've played, easily killed Shaper on my first try.

Hi fellow golementalist(this is what we call it now ^^).
I looked up at ur profile.
Heres what you can do.
Get a decent es chest around 700 800 es and 6 socket 5 link it at least(i dont know your currenct currency situation but it should be done in couple of hundreds jewels and fuses.
About rarity gem we do link it to lightning golem - item rarity- culling strike.
If you wanna use it with flame golem it will reduce ur golem links to 4 and greatly drop ur clear speed.
I suggest you to go mapping. People farm dried lake more than mapping but i dk real reason behind it.
I always switch to maps after switching ci at dried lake.
switch 1 of ur quartz flasks with rumi's flask. that should help.
If you get to 6l chest which is not tabula do not use item rarity on golems at least reaching a certain level. But again this option is only there if u want to use rarity which is not quite efficient.Fire pen is very good and when you think about it more profitable as it increases your clear speed which u kill more monsters w/o rarity gem rather than staying with item rarity gem and killing less monsters with increased iir.

Never mind MF farming at your level and this late in the league. Real goodies are much more likely to drop in highest tier endgame maps anyway. Focus on your level and build up more ES. If you can afford a decent chest yet drop one of the hammers and get some random shield with decent ES rating instead. You can easily make up for the loss of one golem with Fire Penetration instead of IIR. Have some cash ready when you hit lvl 70 and buy a corrupted 20/20 Flame Golem gem, they're cheap enough.
Thanks guys!
I'll rush to the endgame content with Fire Pen instead IR!
One more question:
is it real profit to have IR gems on both Fire and Lightning golems? Or one of them is enough?
You will drop a lot more magic junk with IIR linked to the flame golems.

Using the lightning golem as culler with IIR only works with high tier map bosses as chances are that the flame golems will beat Lighty to the kill in lower maps. ;)

As I said, focus on leveling your toon and around 85 you should be well able to take on the Guardians/Shaper... this is where IIR/IIQ gets really rewarding.

Ok!
I'm wonder is it something like Flame Dash worth using? More mobility = more survivability?
Nothing wrong with Flame Dash, using it myself. Leap Slam is another option, not as fast but nice to get over obstacles and no cooldown/recharge. Lightning Warp also works but ideally requires a 4 links to be reasonably fast (Faster Casting, Less Duration, Rapid Decay).

Movement skill isn't really a priority, use whatever tickles your fancy. ;)
