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

My modifications to the build:

Before Animate Guardian:
Undead Evangelist Specters and Zombies with Maim and Meele Splash dmg + CWDT Convocation (to summon Specters with their proximity shield when I am damaged). Because I am using Zombies in place of AG I get Flesh Binder for dmg reduction.
Link: Zombie - Specter - Maim - Melee Splash

Spell totem variant:
I use arctic breath for chill / Arc + Faster Casting for faster EE propagation

Cheaper alternative to Crystal Belt:
Stygian Vise Belt with Life, ES, 2x Res, (in my current setup: 32 ES, 91 Life, 41 Fire-Res, 27 Cold-Res and added movement speed) + Ghastly Eye Abyssal Jewel (37 ES, 31 Life, minion leech 0.4% dmg as life, faster attack/casting for minions)
It is not only cheaper to get, but also more available. The biggest problem is that it is - at the moment - league specific.

Interesting mods to get if you are not using AG:
- hinder with 30% movement speed reduction chance for minions spells,
- blind chance for mimions/player spells/attacks.

Belt variants comparison:
Crystal Belt vs Stygian Belt + Ghastly Eye:
Crystal Belt max: 131 ES, 99 Life + two belt mods (for example: dual Res)
Stygian + Eye max: 101 ES, 149 Life + two belts mods (dual Res)+ two jewel mods (res/stats/minion)

Remember that ES gets doubled by Skin of the Loyal, so the difference (before scaling) is 60ES at most. We are have scaling ES, so it is better stat to have then pure life.

But from market availability perspective it is easier (and cheaper) to get above average ES+LIFE+RES roll for Stygian Vise and Ghastly Eye jewel then Crystal Belt with similar ES value. To sweeten the deal you get two additional mods that can be minion-oriented (dmg leeched as life, max life, ele res, chaos res, attack/cast speed) or character oriented (stats, res, dodge, block).

In the end, if you are casual player in need of a nice (and cheap) belt - this alternative is worth your time.

It's because it have a nice radius of helping proc EE.

What do you mean by this and what is EE?

Hi, how do you manage to have both discipline and temporal chains and still have mana to sumon golems?

you probably don't, unless you have enough mana / reduced mana reserved node. You just have to disable an aura if you summon golems, not a big deal.

Ah ok, I just thougt we used the summon golem skill to boost damage of golems from the primordial gem that gives 41%more damage from newly summoned golems?

The only time I use this is right when a new abyss hole breaks open. Use that, hit the mana pot, spam storm burst that triggers my bone offering, then repeat when I run to a new hole. Just mapping it destroys all trash mobs without needing the summon, and the TV specs clean up the rares very fast.

Have any of you experienced your animate guardian disapearing?

Spend 7c and 30 mins to get him the right gear.. now hes gone and its quite frustrating.

Does this happen often??

So I have a question does this build have anyway to steal life or energy shield for survivability?

Or are we just depending on hiding and using flasks?

Did you try to resummon him? He's linked to your character, so if you log out, or take the gem out, he will disappear, but all you have to do is resummon and he'll be back with the gear you gave him.
