Re: Golems: how do I make them work?
 

How many times are you going to prove me wrong today? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

And I like double shielding thugs too. But I wouldn't go with charcoal and gleaming as that seems a little counter productive. Maybe charcoal and vine with boots of the behemoth...

And I don't think golems can get regeneration(feel free to correct me Micah), so antimagic and something else - I still like crystal coin. It makes buffing with astral shield more viable which works with the trampling golem. Amulet of resilence could take the place of a crystal coin in that case, and for a lower cost.
In the crystal coins defense, does allow a golem to take the odd role of a supporting caster if needed. Granted, a golem making nation should have plenty of teleportable mages handy, but that doesn't mean its still not helpful to have a golem who can teleport in and cast vortex of returning/will of the fates ect. The golem's also handy in this role because hes tougher than most astral mages, not that it matters in the case of vortex of returning.

I am 100% sure golem cannot get regeneration.
