[3.14] Flame Golem 101 - Complete Guide To Golemancy, ✔️All Bosses Down, ✔️Necro, ✔️Elementalist
" Np, glad it helped ^^ " Hello and thanks for support :) Depends on what content you are going to mainly run. My guild mate is currently testing both variants for tankiness and ES regen. I think he broke 15-17k EHP with full legacy gear with over 1,5k ES regen per sec with occultist. What we noticed was that if you switch straight from Necro to Occultist, drop Necro Eegis and try to run all Harmonies, Golems will have only 56% elemental resistances without ele res aura from Necro. This combined with 0% block chance means that t16 guardians start to 1 shot Golems with hard mods. With occultist Golems ele res has to be capped in one way or another, usually sacrificing 2x jewel sockets for 10% all ele res for minions or switching minion damage to minion ele res gem, minion life is also mantadory support in elder helmer. Once minions res are capped, all content up to uber elder should be doable with ease. Occultist gets massive regen and my friend managed to stay afk 5 mins in hyrda fight before hyrda critted him multiple times. Nerco gets lot more total damage and easier ways to keep minions alive. Necro loses in total ES and regen, but with legacy gear can still get ridiculous EHP. In league I think Necro can't really be true "tank" and requires lot more kiting. However Necro is cheap to gear and has excellent boss kill speed. Occultist can be lot tankier with excellent gear to the point that afk in multiple endgame bosses is possible. It however needs more experience as how to build it as balancing between damage <-> regen <-> EHP can be tricky and depends solely on gear. Occultist is better for party play as you can curse hexproof mobs and below t17 runs as it's very tanky against bosses of that caliber. When I released all three variants, I noticed that in guild each variant got very strong supporters. Some liked Necro excellent boss kill speed and effectiveness, some liked Elementalist immunity to status elements and wanted to use only Golems, some liked the excellent tankiness of Occultist and it's utility in party play. I'd say that Necro is still lot safer bet for endgame, especially if focusing on Uber Elder as occutlists minions can very easily die in the fight if not specifically gearing them to the fight. I would start with Necro and try Occultist when build is familiar and you have all endgame gear. Both are fun to play and feel very different to play :) [3.12] Flame Golem 101 - Complete Guide To Golemancy, All Bosses Down, Necro, Elementalist https://tinyurl.com/y8k9fa2f Dernière édition par mika2salo, le 5 août 2018 15:44:59

" Thanks for support ^^ I'm thinking about switching later to another extension that lets me make the user interface changes that I already have, plus let's me insert Java Script to the page. This means that I can create new html elements like dropdown menus and links, insert sound, video, pop-ups and actions to the page ;)  Early prototype with designs. There are 2x variants that I can make : 1) With solid buttons to most important sites as seen in center of navigation bar. 2) Animates menus that have buttons. Menus have nice dropdown animations and I have functional links under it. This is harder to code but gives tons of options to link to stuff if I figure out enough important links / functions. Text field for aura calc site is tooptip for the link and not solid message box.

New golem neck in 3.4! Picture for reference, see the main announcement for more details.
 Anyone who is good at equations able to calculate what +3 golems nets you overall given the less DPS multiplier? Does the less life multiplier mean you have to run minion life? |
|
" This neck is in allmost every case an insane dps increase. Your active dps golems usually are 4-5 with 2 "buff" golems to enhance the dps of your flame (or lightning golems if you chose to). So going for example from 4 to 7 active fire golems is 1.75 x 0.65 (If 35% less is the lowest it can go, some site had a differently rolled one. Might go even lower though). Which would net about 13% more damage and the movement speed boon. Life shouldnt be an issue on elementalist builds if you are of that build variant. If you are non elementalist going from 3 to 6 golems is 2.0 x 0.65 = 1.3 so 30% more dmg. Obviously there needs to be more calculations done if its worth going for more buff golems so the ratio of active dps golems pre and post amulett becomes as high as possible. But that amulett is very powerfull and very exciting. Relevant issue though is that this neck basically means you cant go low life unless you get stun immunity from somewhere else but even then, dropping chayulas presence costs a lot of life. This might be go - to amy though for life based golemancers Dernière édition par Tyranastrasz, le 9 août 2018 21:13:42

Can't wait to see Mika's answer - i know he is going to love this!

Primordial chain ammy huh? Would go get 1 if they exist or are they going to be introduced?
On a positive note out of all the builds i have done this is possibly my best so am open to suggestions as to how to improve it. Uber elder is my nemesis and i know that not getting hit is the key but any possible improvements would be appreciated. Thanks. | |
" " " Hello :) It's hard to say if the amulet is good or bad. I did Pob check and got about 10% total damage increase with Golems, but on the other hand lost all Spec damage which is more than half of boss damage with Necro. I'd say that the loss of all defensive lines and 40% less damage is too hard to actually get any benefit from the amulet but we have to see when it starts to drop. On the other hand Dominating blow got reworked and could work with Golems and Specs. Just throwing an idea, but it could be placed in shaper gloves : Dom blow -> Minion damage -> Empower -> Melee damage -> Accuracy (glove support) -> blind (glove support) -> poison (glove support) Then at boss use 3-4x Writhing jars and kill the worms. All worms would summon new minion type as they dont seem to care what you kill for it. New minions could be OP, ok or bad. have to see when they come out. " Hey :) I recommend checking my Uber Elder run at how to deal with uber elder with one way. Most important is to max cold res with purity of ice, 4-5% raised max cold res shield without necro aegis and sapphire flask. This combo lowers boss damage by about 60% and gives you lot more room for error. Specs on elementalist can die if they take too much consecutive hits, so fight will be more on Golems. However high level cold res could keep even Specs alive. Your +1 Vis Mortis would be about best armor for Necro. Swapping for Bones or Ullr gives you 4x Specs with 4x high level Golems and TVs will do massive boss damage. 100% increased spec life and damage would really help Specs survival. However it's not needed if you want to do it as Elementalist. Just capping cold res and swapping shield charge to lightning warp -> faster cast -> less duration could easily turn the fight for your win ;) [3.12] Flame Golem 101 - Complete Guide To Golemancy, All Bosses Down, Necro, Elementalist https://tinyurl.com/y8k9fa2f Dernière édition par mika2salo, le 10 août 2018 13:22:00

Couple of things mika -
The amulett rolls atleast to 35% less damage, a different site had a different roll on it. It might even go better. Second, the amulett prohibits non Golem minions so for Necro/Occultist or in general spectre hybrid versions wont see as much benefit from that much Is clear. But Pure Golem builds should be much better of because of this and have rooms for other supportive settups that replace Spectres or other minions. I made a preliminary calculation in another Thread about the net gain of dps for your golems from the PoV of an elementalist with a shield settup. " So for an life based elementalist this amulett comes to a high gain of dps really. Additionally the google docs was updated aswell to compare different settups. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lA7tpZ-7ZOSS2yWK3bWV9IBbYta7qMbAjvO1G96wVdM/edit#gid=0 Please keep in mind the relative gain between options. As you can see going for the example case that I personally focus on of 3-1-1-1 elementalist to 5-1-1-1-1 is going from 29.85 to 40.1375 . That is roughly a gain of 34% more damage. Absolutely relevant, for life based versions atleast. Its for sure a different story if we talk about low life who pretty much depend on Chayulas presence as it is to powerfull. Though there is the option to potentially get unwavering stance on a Skin of the loyal from upgrading it and maybe dome aura effect corruption on the Primordial chain if it turns out to be much cheaper then chayulas.
