[3.14] Flame Golem 101 - Complete Guide To Golemancy, ✔️All Bosses Down, ✔️Necro, ✔️Elementalist

Hi there

It seem none of the levelling tree's can be opened.
"Comes up with 502 Bad Gateway"

Hi, yeah like the above said none of the levelling trees can be accessed.

My main question is whether this golem build could be viable using SRS at end game? Instead of animate guardian maybe?

Im really liking both golems & SRS and want to combine the two.

Hey :)

Summoner trees are very universal and this guide can be used for many different kind of summons.

"The Baron" summoner gets more strength bonus for SRS, but can take much less jewels sockets. There is also problem as how to keep SRS alive in endgame boss fight as they do AOE DOT around them.

If using Temporal Chains, Bone Offer, Necromantic Aegis, regen and capping minion resitances SRS will last much longer in boss fights and do more damage as stack stays up. Golems are great support cannons if you want to use SRS as main skill.

If you put SRS in 6link armor, best place to put Flame Golems would be the +1 level Rainbowstrides and dropping out Animate Guardian. I'm not sure if Infernal Mantle is best armor with SRS spamming as it drops to low mana very fast. Maybe Skin of the Loyal or High ES armor will work better?

Since you stack both Life and ES, why not grab MoM+EB?
Would we end up with too few Life points compared to ES for this to work?

Is there a hardcore variation for this build? I really, really want to try this but am pretty new to the game and don't have the knowledge to adjust the skills/tree/items myself for hardcore play. Any suggestions would be awesome. Thanks a ton!

So Elementalist or Necromancer is better for golem summoner??

Pretty much all your videos you have are with a second person. How does this build do going solo against a boss like the Guardians?

Hey :)

EB would propably make life / ES ratio pretty screwed. MOM could work if not using "Infernal Mantle", going to low mana with it is very dangerous.

Hi!

Summoner is very complex class. I'm very skeptical in recommending it as first class in HC, as first 4 acts will be very hard to play. Low level summons are pretty weak at start and get much stronger when near act5.

You would need tons of grinding to over-level minions for safe levels, but its doable. Act 4 is specially rippy, as minions are too low level for the content. But I did act 5-8 deathless with pretty bad gear. Didn't even lose more than few zombies in boss fights :)

If you can get friend to carry you through act 1-4 boss fights, it would help massively.

Necromancer is better for leveling and Elementalist later if you want to do endgame bosses early on. With Necromancer you need more defense on Golems, but all bosses are doable after certain point :)

You can always change Ascendancy later if you feel like it, so choice is not final.

Hey!

Second person? Do you mean "Animate Guardian" minion?

It Looks like second players, but is actually minion that you can equip with what ever gear you want to.

Is there any nodes you would change to go hardcore or no? I made it to the act 4 boss fight playing summoner last league but ended up dying to the act 4 boss because he was just wrecking my zombies. Will def get help for him this time around. Just curious if I should change any nodes or not (still kinda new to the game, and not sure what to move around yet.)

You should max all gear with minion life, regen and resistance you can get. Run Bone Offering all the time and max your Hitpoints and Energy Shield. Farm Dried Lake till you are hugely over-leveled and have enough currency to buy great gear.

I just got my

in league and vaal skeletons. Bosses for act 2-3 will be super easy as zombies stopped dying that much :)

The difference in minion regen and number of targets on screen is huge for your survival.
