Iron golem persistence

Is this still the case?

Also note that Iron Golems only persist between games when cast by the Necromancer's skill. (i.e. not by an item's

Charge)

This would mean: a sorc can not have a persistent

Iron Golem.

No it is false.
I use ig around 3 days ago, it is carry over between games.

You have to leave the game with the item that gave the charges still equipped. Otherwise the golem will disappear upon creating a new game

that's valuable information, thx for sharing. meaning i can put

Metalgrid, cast golem, put my normal amulet back on, and before exiting put

Metalgrid back on?

what gives charges apart from metal grid? how squishy is the golem at lvl 22?

for high performance quick run builds it's a risk/annoyance of course.. but for slow fun runs it's a nice boost

what items would be good for following builds?

fire sorc -

Medusa's Gaze? Infinity ?
self wield Infinity zon?
icemaiden? if merc wears Faith maybe golem out of Insight?
bowzon.. Mist and Faith already equipped, maybe add something with might?
Plague zon.. also medusa?
firezon with Phoenix equipped and Faith on merc?

another idea.. if i stick a few (cheap) facets into an item and make a golem out of it, will it boost my elemental dmg?

it will boost

Iron Golem elemental dmg but not your char.


This amulet is very useful , it is my favorite amulet.
But it will cost a lot of uniques....even with strongest

Stormshield, it will only last around 15 run. For non shield, like Insight, it will last 1-3 run....

Medusa's Gaze is useful

I tried last season full set. end up equip it by myself .

gaze is kind of strong shield, my run , it usually dead in 10 run. slightly lower to best strom shield 15 run.

You have to continue to purchase medusa shield from others, it is cheap but

Consume too fast.
