[3.13] BUDGET GOLEMANCER for everyone! (Carrion Golem Necromancer build from 1 to Sirus)

Hey, playing the build and like it so far. Only issue I have is that my spectres seem to die a lot. Any way I can fix that (dont have a +3 helmet yet)?

You can leave it for last

So i finally got a 6linked shavs with the right colors and have been trying to switch to using blood magic, but I'm still taking damage to my life pool, not sure what I'm missing. Are there other mechanics that will bypass ES other then chaos i'm overlooking?

Getting a 4R2B Shavs is proving really hard. Do you think this build will still be viable getting a more traditional 6L ES chest and going CI? I realize you lose the BM auras, but should gain in survivability. How much of a hit would it be to golems to drop Pride and Precision?

for the colors on shavs you can just use 3color craftbench. took like 6 attempts to get the colors or just get some white sockets

is there another POB for taking it to the next level?
what to invest on to increas my survivability and damage

also using 6 golems do we use stone golems aswell or just 6 carrions?

liking the build so far, never played summoner before

I've heard this a couple of times - "just get some white sockets" - but isn't this pretty random? With a level 3 craft you get 1-3 random sockets turned white, so even if you start with something like RRRBBB from the bench it's still a gamble that you'll turn a blue one white. I suppose at worst it's 50/50, so probably the 125 chromes to 3-red first, then a Vorici master craft on top and hope you hit one of the blues.

An alternative to white sockets is to use harvest crafting. I used the bench to set mine to BBBRRR then I just put it in my bank and continued mapping. The next harvest grove I found I did the 1 blue 1 red craft and it switched to BBRRRR.

Not sure what the odds on that are but its worked for me on a couple chests this league so far.
