I would try culling, slower proj, faster proj and onslaught or point blank.

Hello, what color are the best for Skin? On the 1st page in recomended section is 3R 2B 1G, and in the gem secion linked gems are 3G 2R 1G.

3 Red, if you plan on bossing mainly. 3 Blue, if you plan on mapping.

Fire Pen for Bosses/High tier maps. Controlled Destruction for Mapping in general.

I did this by accident at first also. I ended up using culling strike. Big fan of it.

Faster proj is probably better for clearing maps though. Switching to Slower proj for bosses.

In the end I have culling strike with arc linked to my totem. Might've had something to do with that.

They're pretty needed. You can craft nice rings cheapish with essences of fear.

Feels a lot worse mapping without them for sure.

If you didn't know three base two-stone rings turns into a prismatic ring. (The three different types)

Holy crap! really great feedback, thanks! I changed the gem setup, ran temporal chains as you guys suggested, and bought some additional ES gear (currently 4.5k es and 1.5k hp) and now I'm SUDDENLY breezing through t13-15 maps.. WTF :-O

here's what I'm currently running (i have a better belt ready to use at level 79, looking to replace rainbowstride because im not using a shield/necroaegis)

Glad that it helped :)

- "Death's Door" are nice replacement boots as they make you immune to bleed. Freeze and burn will however last 50% longer so have flasks ready
- "Steppan Eard" are also nice boots as they make you immune to Desecrated ground and give lots of ES.

Hi OP and everyone else.
This build seems very interesting. Would love to get it a try while im waiting for the day GGG implements perm spectres hah.

Now my question is.. Do you think I can get something decent going for about 600c ?
Besides the jewels im not sure what to prioritise and what skin of the loyal socket color I should aim for as a cheaper options then the ones that cost 300c + ?

Any suggestions on how to get this started with a 600c currency budget or is it a waste of time and currency if I cant go all out ?

Hey!

With 600 c you get nice start to Golems. I would buy :
- Anima Stone 150c
- Primordial Might 150c
- Skin of the Loyal (3r 1g 2b or 2r 1g 3b) 200c
- Flame Golem 21/0 50c
- Empower 3 10c

If prices are more expensive, drop "Primordial Might" and use extra Harmony for now. Get Might as soon as you have everything else in the list.

Next in list would be Presence of Chayula (300c) and then you would have almost all expensive gear.

Build works already very good with the list I provided. Rest of upgrades will make endgame just easier.

If anyone is interested... I made an Aegis build out of this for HC, 5500 EHP, 20k unbuffed armour. I use Enfeeble instead of temp chains because if you get damage bone offering will prog and you are at 75/75 block meaning only oneshots are dangerous. Damage is still good so if anybode wants to try another take on a Golemancer you can look at this char.

Hey!

Build looks nice. Not many have done life based version of this build in HC yet. I hope it will keep you alive long. I'm interested how high level can you get with it ;)

I'm enjoying this build so far with my OP golems (although in maps now they are starting to not one shot things). I was wondering why you are linking Tempest Shield in? As far as I know, it doesn't apply to minions (because it is cast on yourself) and it doesn't apply to you (because you don't have a shield). Does it work with block chance coming from Bone Offering?

Hi :)

Tempest Shield actually works with Necro Aegis and gives you block. Wiki says it doesn't, GGG employer said so in some years ago and it still it gives you 3% block chance. It even gives 3% extra block when Bone Offering is up.

I guess GGG changed something when they made shield charge. It should work with Necro Aegis also even if you don't "have" shield (haven't tested yet)

You can probably see in my Shaper -video that Tempest shield is working even when I'm using Necro Aegis.

Hello Everyone!

First i would like to thank you for this nice guide.
I really like this kind of playstyle.
But i need a little bit of help.
How can i maximize my Energy shield? In my Profile my char GrundelGaukelei is wearing another shield than i normally play. I switched to it to see if i can raise my ES. But with this shield equipped or even a shield with no increased energy shield on it, my ES Nuber displayed at my healthglobe doesnt change.
With my gear i killed the guardians and the lab is no problem, but i have serious problems with the shaper. Everytime his attack after he teleported hits and kills me instantly. And im moving all the time but i have noch chance to evade this attack. What am i doing wrong?
And maybe you have some hints for me how to improve my gear.

I apologize for my bad english and hope you have tipps for improving my char.

Thx

With necromantic aegis you won't benefit from shields at all.

Thanks for support ^^

Your characters are still private, so I can't see your gear or links. Usual places to increase ES is :
- Life and ES on rings
- Life and ES on belt
- Life and ES on gloves
- Presence of Chayula transfers lot of that life to ES

Shield wont give any benefit for you if you have taken "Necromantic Aegis". It gives all shield benefits to minions instead. Victarios charity is best shield for minions as it gives them good defenses while also generating charges for damage.

In shaper when he teleports, drink quicksilver flask and just run in 1 direction. This will give you enough speed to run from the hit before it lands. Check my Shaper -kill video how to do it. there are also more tips in description ;)

Hello :)

You can put :
Flame Golem -> Empower -> Fire Pene -> Greater multiple projectiles -> Slower projectiles -> Echo to maximize damage and clear speed. You can switch either green for Culling Strike or Enhance if you want to boost all attacks instead of only Magma Balls for boss fights.

Those colors are not optimal but still decent. You are missing about 20% of max damage without second blue.

3 Red, if you plan on bossing mainly. 3 Blue, if you plan on mapping.

Hey!

Yep, 3 blue give best damage against enemies with low Fire Resistance. About 90% of all monsters fall into this category and Elemental Equilibrium can crop them to zero resistance.

3 Red is best against bosses and high res enemies. Only 10% of monsters are in this category and just EE cant drop them to even near zero for all added damage to get through.

I like 3 red best as it gives best average damage, but both are about as effective. Its basically clear speed vs boss killing speed.

Hello , the minion speed on ring are rly needed ? cus i loose a lot of res with prismatic ring :'(

Hi!

Minion speed in rings is very good but no needed. It makes Golems run near you, not behind you. Also when you put totem, Golems will be there almost instantly raising you DPS and also defense by being better meat-shields. Golems also patrol wider area with minion speed and shoot enemies off-screen farther.

First everything else should be maxed and then get minion speed if you don't have to cut too much from other defenses. Prismatic is nice base as it always gives 10% all ele res, but you can select any base you want.

Thx for the quick response. I set my characters to public so you can have look at my GrundelGaukelei.
I hope you have some advices for me to improve my gear.

Thx alot

Sorry for the noob-ish questiion, but how do you get the golems to stay close to you without using convocation? Sometimes my golems get stuck on doorways and stuff
