3.26 GOLEMS ARE BACK, THE IMMORTAL LIGHTNING GOLEMANCER

Hey love the build so far, just feel like I'm lacking a decent amount of DPS atm.

I do not have zealotry merc, just wrath waiting to find it.

But can you look at my gear and tell me where I'm really going wrong? Or if I just need to swap over to necro from ele?

I've got merc w/ doryi and -137 light res, have same merc as you just minus the off hand wep, I have a shield, and haven't got Kaom's on there because no zealotry merc yet.

But damage just seems pretty lackluster. I have a soulrend champ w/ 1.6m dps that seems to be leagues ahead of this and I would have assumed the dps of this would have been insane comparatively. Granted I don't have the melding flesh/red nightmare yet but I haven't really ran into a survivability yet, just damage issue so haven't focused on it yet.

hello, on elementalist the damage will be considerable lower, i have putted off the pob couse i realized necromancer defilers can do a lot more on a budget and is newcomer's frendly.

Some points on ur pob:
U must have all jewl sockets putted stacking eminences, also the % elemental ailments corrupt is mandatory couse u are applyuing shock urself , this is a % more dmg on each corrupt bossting a lot of the dps, u need also to always run near the opnoent to the boots autoapply the shock, without it the damage will drop very hard.
Another point ur awkened gems are at level 1, losing 2 golems levels that are a lot of dps
The wand must have all the damages nodes, couse all the damage scales for the tiers of the modifiers, ur's hava a low tier modes and not all of them, dorpping a important amount of damage ( defilers don't crit, that's why i recomend now for a budget u only need to worry forlevels, minion damage and cast speed ona starter wand, becoming a lot cheaper)
Id recomend to take a look on the new all in 1 pob and went defilers to farm some currency, they can do all t16 corrupted 8 mods with easy ( a tip for begginers at this point farm delirium orbs and u will make a tons of chaos fast with no power requirement)
Sadly the golems will only hit hard on necro with the forbbidens jewls ( in this seasons they are A LOT expensive) and a considerable amount of cuyrrency invested on the gear.

Another point : try to find the double merc aura, i now i struggled a lot to find mine but the double aura is a lot more of dps (33% of the total dps for each aura nearly)

So on the Mid Tier setup it makes no sense to use Wraith Lord helmet with 4 abysall sockets and then you have determination and enlighten etc on the pob, I'm just going to take off the glove gems andput those there instead and have no movement skill like shield charge since it doens't fit in helmet since it's just 4 abysaal sockets

Hello, that's my mistake, i recommend to turn off the automation convocation molten shell links and all will be good, just some less utilitys links, updated

so I went ahead and did my own thing before I read your post but instead put it on the wand since there are no gems on the wand, i'll need to look at your new setup first havne't done so yet but I basically have for my wand and I am not even using shield charge, wondering if I could somehow sneak discipline in instead for more ES since I have 128/881 mana left and I just changed the gloves to put on the helmet gems in stead and left boots alone. Still not even using shield charge at all since i just flame dash around easily enough so wasted gem.

My review on the build :

Leveled my witch to 92, spent about 40 divs buying gear and gems and borrowed mageblood from my main character... with all that power I can't even do 8 mods corrupted T16 sewer, let alone if I try something jucier... It has solid defensive layer, you can't die that easily, so I give you that, however... golem damage is just non-existent. I don't know many mirrors I need so I can run T16, but this definitely isn't that. I feel like I kinda got baited lmao. Might switch to flame golems or try something else in the future, so it's not all for nothing...

Also idk if you know this... in your POB you've placed Liege of the primordial twice (500 divs jewel btw), yet in the game it says limit is one.

You allocated Death attunement (+1 to skeletons,zombies and spectres), yet in the build you suggest The dark monarch (Unique helmet which doubles the golems,but disables all other minions), so you might wanna fix this.

Hello!
can u send me ur pob to i take a look?
I checked ur profile and i think u are mixing the specters mid game pob with golems, another tip ur awk minion dmg gem is lvl 4 losing 1 minion level and a lot of dmg
i'll post some more videos of the build melting the abyss 4 risk farm and doing uber exarch in 15s before the balls phase in my playstyle the damage is very ok(also i already posted a video with 100% deli 5 risk t17 boss dying in ~1m)

Forbiddens jewls must be in pairs to work(l. of the primordial)

All the golems pob's don't have the death a. allocated, the only one that have is the specter mid game pob(i just checked) can u send me a print where u found that error?
cheers

Why are you running Wilmas on your merc?
