Can Iron Golem from a "good" magic/rare item be better than a Clay Golem?

Hi

Are there any affixes, considering only magic/rare/crafted items, that can make

Iron Golem better than

Clay Golem?
Or do

Iron Golem only worth if you

Sacrifice a set/unique/runeword with some special affixes (like auras)

Short answer: no

Long answer: any truly useful affixes would only come on uniques/runewords

In general

Clay Golem is superior, to make an

Iron Golem worthwhile it takes like 60 skill points and a very expensive item, it would have to be a cornerstone of your build

if you're using the

Clay Golem you're most probably using it because of it's innate slowing effect. it's slowing paired with

Decrepify takes the danger out of any big boss or super unique you're eventually facing.

pair this with it's low requirements you don't even need to put points into it. if it dies, just recast. rinse and repeat. if you not have tested this, go ahead to an act boss and try it. they get slowed down so much, you can almost count their animation frames by simply looking at it

Iron Golem

1. during the time of playing for the Necro-summoner, I realized that the benefits of IG much more than from Clay even if only because you can constantly make it from cheap Insight, even though, because you can constantly make it from cheap, which will replenish mana, and a mercenary from act 2 with an aura might give in hand, if you have a low budget - Obedience He will tear

Baal to pieces more use than just a dummy with a bunch of life that only slows down the boss that Merc kills at the same speed that he slows down by

Clay Golem.... and in this case, I didn't even throw 20 in

Golem Mastery, only 1 point to

Golem Mastery and 1 to IG
1.1. it's just that you always have a couple Insight of ready-made ones in your stash I did from Insight any 4

Scythe I didn 't bother much. Do you know how many substitutions I 've made ? none, because the golem is made of a

Scythe normal base he lived with me all the time, and died only when I did respec someone likes to make them from ethereal bases to give them a translucent style and more dmg, on the contrary, I like it in its original version.

1.2. and if you want your

Iron Golem to keep slowing down bosses like

Clay Golem make it out of

Kelpie Snare there is Slows Target By 75% (the advantage is that it slows down not only bosses but in general everyone it hits) and also necessary for Fire Resist +50% because IG is immune to poison and lighting and he is afraid only of fire and cold, especially afraid, Diablo with him

Firestorm

2. the 2nd stage I had was that I gave the measure Pride

3. Stage 3 I had what I picked up Beast

4. The 4th stage for me was what I did IG from Infinity I managed to buy cheap Infinity on NON-

Eth

Colossus Voulge base and in this case, I did not spend any 60 skill points as the person above wrote, but only pumped by 20 -

Golem Mastery.

Raise Skeleton - 20

Skeleton Mastery - 20

Revive - 20 ( taking into account the offer from Morder07 - Why so many? It's one-point wonder. Better invest these 19 points in CE. You will spend more time keeping their count maxed than playing. this can be considered as an option if you want to increase the radius of damage from the explosion of corpses from 8 yards to 14 and do not waste time calling pets again and again, in my case it does not bother me, since it is initially aimed at increasing damage for the pet army. And if we talk about the fast speed of clearing locations, then it's better to do another character altogether, but I assume that we are doing a real zoo director

Golem Mastery - 20

Summon Resist to 71 get 72 with+1 BO (its 37 without BO with BO u get 38 lvl

Summon Resist 72%) - arround 15-16 skill points
All another on

Skeletal Mage

Bone Armor - 1

Corpse Explosion - 1 (varies with

Revive) you can put 20 here,

Revive get to 1, its at your discretion player opinion
and
I use only 1 curses is

Amplify Damage - for me enough
4.1. !!! - I also think it is very important to give a mercenary

Eth

Arkaine's Valor (mb on non

Eth important is 2 skills) with 2 skill or Chains of Honor for lvl up Might aura , my merc use

Eth

Arkaine's Valor

4.2. yes, in this case you have to slurp bottles of mana yourself

thoughts out loud: Thinking about how can use

Metalgrid to sumonn Level 22

Iron Golem from the Beast for my WW Barb (who has in his hands Death + Grief in Colossus Swords and the mercenary act 2 with might + Pride)
they just keep not doing it because it used to disappear very often. After blizzards fixed the system the disappearance of summoned creatures there were fewer worries about him.

5. And frankly speaking, I 'm just tired of it I just wanted something new , so I started experimenting with IG And I can say for sure that back to

Clay Golem I don't want to go back, I'd rather stop at one of the above stages

I know that you can have amazing

Iron Golem from some unique/runeword.

My question is if you can make a good

Iron Golem from a rare/magic.
(I don't have a stash of Insight to throw away )

About make an Iron Goleam from a

Kelpie Snare to apply slow, I didn't test it, but saw video saying this will not be as good as

Clay Golem, because

Clay Golem slow enemies that hit it too.

I have not met such , walk for 5-6 hours in cowlvl, you will get a lot of sticks there from which you can make Insight and runes for him
