3.11 | Carry Me Golems | Carrion/Stone Golem Elementalist | Very Tanky and High DPS summoner

Well swapped to this build after starting out with WI, 1 year old has been a lot more needy at bed time last few weeks so I needed something a lot safer.

Only thing I am not having luck with is 6 linking, I am over 1k fusing in and no luck so far.

Thanks for the guide.

Run some Jun missions for the syndicate, get Hillock in FOrtification and push him up to level 3, then run the safehouse. He'll give you a crafting bench that will add quality to your chest, which increases the odds of linking it.

Awesome, thank you.

That did the trick, finished it in the next 100 fusings.

I will work on that next, does he need to be the guy in the box or does he just need to be in fortification. I finally got vorici in Research so that will be next this to try to move around.

If he's the leader, you get 2 armour pieces to boost quality on. If he's a lieutenant, you still get 1.

thanks, I never really paid too much attention to betrayal. But it helped, only 100ish more and I got my 6L.

how do you guys make ur spectres and zombies survive in t17+ 100% delirium maps with double beyond? (the beyond bosses are the problem)
the helmet isnt enough and everything else on the tree would take too much points, so the loss in dmg would make other golems better.


oh, and do you really spec into gravepact? because 4/5 points for a bit accuracy, 4% double damage with diminishing returns since we got renewal and a bit attackspeed seems very bad for the points.
the increased damage is useless, since we alrdy got so much with harmonies, that it doesnt really take into account (its same multiplier).
1 more harmony or medium with renewal would be more damage per point.

Zombies die, not a big deal, they are easy to resummon. Spectres are a bigger pain in the rump to resummon. I ended up leveling a spectre bank so I could always get them back easily.

With that said, the +3 minion helm with added minion life set them up to only die rarely. Mostly because the carrions rip up bosses so fast they rarely get a chance to kill any minions. Liberal use of convocation helps, too. The AG with culling strike and fortify doesn't hurt, and They of Tul with his annoying snowstorm... it just all adds up.

Yes to Gravepact. I couldn't spec into another jewel socket with the 4 points anyway, and at high 90's level, you're pushing into diminishing returns on the tree.

Ok, so maybe i'm doing something wrong... first time playing a golem-build, but i got some currency left and wanted to try out a golem-build this league. Is it even possible to level with this build? I'm using leveling uniques, got my six-link with +1 to socketed gems, but it just took me 10(!!!) minutes to take down Malachai in Act 4. Only talking about the second phase, with Piety already being dead... Since we're missing Deathmark Support, the golems attack the respawning adds all the time, or kept attacking Malachai even though he had his shield...

I have 6 Carrion Golems, one stone and one chaos golem. Using the leveling tree, to get as many jewel slots as fast as possible.

Oh, and btw... hi Grimjack ;-)

Edit: Ok, sometimes i'm just... switched to Triad Grip when i reached level 34... converting 100% physical to elemental damage, when supporting the main damage golem with Brutality Support is just plain stupid...

each dead zombie is a dps loss. and no, in t17+ double beyond 100% delirious abaxoth and so on arent shred that fast, that they cant set off some attacks. so they hit the spectres quite often with large aoe.
you got a lot of times 3-5 beyond bosses up at the same time (100%+ packsize maps)

well its not just 4 points. the spec to disciple and training seems also worse compared to 4% life nodes, if we add up the total gain.
im just wondering, because i see this spec a lot in builds.
for 8 points golems blood and the jewel there are reachable and thats 5 points for socket and 3 points for 15% life.
i thought i miss something on the gravepact thing, thats why im asking :D

Did anyone here try to deep delve (depth 1000+) with this build? I tried Deep Delve last league with my poison BV (depth 1000, then another 100 with the penance brand-version) and the old-guy-tank-build, but tbh, after depth 800, it just gets REALLY fcked up for any melee-build. I saw a few golemancer deep-delve too, but don't see any this league...
