3.7 In-Depth Ice Golems Guide - Snowybois - On Hiatus for 3.8

Just wanted to post and say a huge thanks to the OP for this build. It's by far the strongest and easiest I have ever tried although it's by no means cheap.

I just killed Shaper for the first time ever and apart from a few deaths because I suck at dodging, it was all over very quickly.

It's probably helped a lot that I've had my luckiest league ever, collecting about 60ex. Red Elder was kind enough to drop a watchers eye which sold for 52ex. I'm not sure if it's worth investing any more currency on this character(still got 38ex left) or just use the remaining league time to test out another build.

Awesome build OP, 10/10.

It doesn't seem like arctic armor would be very useful skill for this build since you only get the defenses when you are stationary.

I agree, and personally wouldn't use it.

Hi! Ijust bought a ilvl 86 elder helm with the stone golem enchant, but I was wondering what fossil combination do I need to hit both +3 minion gem and -5% mana reserved???

This build is realy nice :P lot of fun with golems... But i have one problem... How you make 1000+ life regen... i have only 700 ... Someone can tell me what i miss ?? My current gear :



Also have watchers eye with 2x determination and might of the meek jewel, all jewels locked on tree... And where is that 1000+ life regen ?? I have no idea that it's important how you summon your gollems... i do it like this :first 6 x Ice golem, then lightning, stone and at last chaos. And still have only 700 life regen....

It’s your helm and belt.

Your helm is not +2 minion skills nor does it have a lab enchant with “100/150% increased stone golem buff effect”.

Your belt is not an Elder belt with the “increased life recovery rate” mod, which goes up to 20%.

Also, the golem buff bug will be fixed in the next patch.

You may also need to summon 9 then get what you want.. also, make sure you have 3jewels to scale the regen and other golem buffs.

Level 21 stone golem base regen = 121
9 golems = 225% buff effect
1 eminence = 30% buff effect
Stone golem effect helm enchant = 100% or 150% uber lab

225 + 30 = 255
225 + 30 + 100 = 355
225 + 30 + 150 = 405

golem base regen * (1 + (%buff effect/100)) = total golem regen

121 * (1 + (255/100)) = 429.55 = 429

If total character regen is 700 and golem regen is 429, then regen from life/passives is 700 – 429 = 271

Add helm enchant
121 * (1 + (355/100)) = 550.55 = 550 + 271 = 821
121 * (1 + (405/100)) = 611.05 = 611 + 271 = 882

Add elder belt with 20% increased life recovery
700 * 1.2 = 840 regen
821 * 1.2 = 985 regen
882 * 1.2 = 1058 regen

There we go, 1000+ regen. Add +2 minion gems to helm to bump base golem regen from 121 to 133, and 1 or 2 more eminence gems for 30 or 60 additional buff effect, respectively, the total regen is only going to go up.

133 * (1 + (465/100)) = 751.45 = 751 + 271 = 1022
1022 * 1.2 = 1226 regen
