Path of Exile Gems PoE Builds, PoE Currency guide and other guides
Intro & build description
Build doesn’t require a ton of knowledge, summon Flame Golems and watch how they obliterate full screen of mobs while you chill behind meat shields. There is very little to no maintenance while you play this build, you don’t even have to target things, golems are doing all the hard work for you. You just run behind your golems and collect all the loot.

Tip: Click on the item to view it on PoE Wiki or to view similar rare items in poe.tradeHelmet
Bone HelmetUse this base till you can afford helm with “40% more Flame Golem Damage”, ideally you would want it on this base, but it might get very expensive.
Body Armour
Vaal RegaliaHybrid ES chest with at least 500+ ES and 80+life is our end-game goal. Any chest with life and some ES will work till you find enough currency to buy decent Vaal Regalia.
Gloves
Sorcerer GlovesCheck if you can find pair of gloves with triple resistances and high life. Any pair of gloves with 2 decent elemental resistances will do just fine, base of gloves is not that important.
Boots
Sorcerer BootsHigh movement speed, as much life as possible and high resistances. You can chose boots with different base, in that case, add some dexterity as well. It will allow us to get more life or resistances on rings.
Left Ring
Two-Stone RingRings should have dexterity and strength for gem and support gem requirements. If requirements are met on other pieces of gear, get as much life and resistances as possible.
Right Ring
Two-Stone RingRings should have dexterity and strength for gem and support gem requirements. If requirements are met on other pieces of gear, get as much life and resistances as possible.
Amulet
SidhebreathIdeally you want this amulet with ”minions deal % increased damage” corruption. Non corrupted is great as well, it provides great quality of life stats on our golems.
Hello. There is not mch time to league start… can you gice some tips how to put points at 20/40/60 lvls?
Hello! 🙂
Template would look something like this https://www.pathofexile.com/fullscreen-passive-skill-tree/AAAABAMAAQj0DXwc3CL0KPpFnUZxSbFLV1NSVytXyVqRakNqrGwLbRlvnoLHgwmPGpMnmuChL6h9tAy4k72CvorAVMDjytPT-9fP34rpAuq66-7viPGz-Tf56P6z
Why is Cast When Damage Taken lvl 9? I mean, there’s reason for it to be level 1 or 20, but why 9?
Which jewels are the expensive ones?
Also, what do golems stack on?
Middle ground, decent damage threshold and increased IC duration. Primordial Might is expensive.
Thanks, also, is raise zombie just a way to spread culling strike? It seems a bit strange that way
Why use spell echo if you can just cast it 3 times instead of 2, since max golems are 3?
The spell echo is for the golems
I found our spell echo is because freshly spawned golems get a buff of 40% dmg from the 4 exalt jewel, you don’t need spell echo until you have the 4 and 5 exalt jewels
man do you understand that spell echo acctually works on golems spells ? Its huge they just trow 2 fireball at once. + we get the bonus summon 2 gollems at time.
But main idea is really to boost golems damage
Is Flesh Offering linked with the Cast When Damage Taken support? I feel like it never goes off.
hi was wondering what i would lvl up with until i get flame golems? 🙂
I suggest summon raging spirits
I’ve been playing this build for a few days now and liking it more and more. Few questions though
-if you get the enchant on the bone helmet doesn’t that overwrite the implicit?
-i don’t see a desecrate gem anywhere, Isn’t that almost a necessity in any summoner build?
-why are you suggesting 2 movement skills? i’ve swapped flame dash with ball lightning to guide my minions so they’re always ahead of me.
– does it benefit a lot to have a lvl 21 flame golem gem?
great build though, i only have to 6l my chest and it’s complete then. Luck isn’t on my side :/
one of the onehanders have 2 gems only. Would vaal skeletons be a start option or is there a better way?
Vaal skeletons is used pretty much only as a distraction skill. You can use it in that socket, yes.
Hey, nice guide. are there any changes by now further into the league?
There aren’t any specific changes to the build, just the skill tree. Few things were buffed so it’s even stronger right now 🙂
and what exactly is vaal trap for? only dmg boost on shocked ground?
Yep, exactly that.
I don’t get how you generate endurance charges 😡
You don’t, unless you want to use Enduring Cry.
Yo! loving the build. only got one problem. which is that stone golems have started spawning. Think they come with the first one hand… is it because ive leveled cast on damage to level 10? seems to be an added effect with immortal call and flesh offering. Thanks for the help!
What enchants are we looking for on our hands helm and gloves?
If you look at the Helmet just below there is a green text “bone helmet” that links to poe.trade and it even set the mods needed (if in legacy you need to change seek option from standard to legacy) for your answer it’s life and resistance
%increased flame golems damage on helm, for gloves it doesn’t really make any difference.
cool thanks for the info
Great guide, Just started on LHC. So dont have much currency to play with, but will go your SRS build till I can get enought currency to buy the jewels and then change.
The “full Tree” is not that full. Im at level 85 and i could really use some guidence since i filled up all the shown nodes..
We will add full tree later today.
Immortal Call? And where this build generate endurance charges?
You don’t need endurace charges for immortal call to work, all it does is increase duration, which is so miniscule of a difference that it doesn’t matter if you are running only 3 charges anyway.
x5 duration with 3 charges isn’t that miniscule. The base duration without increased duration support and charges is really short and it’s effectiveness will be situational at best
What flasks would you use with this build?
Life flasks for sticky situations, Atziri’s Promise is pretty good option too. Granite or Resistance flasks are also worth considering.
How can you run with all those aura. 2 curse with blasphemy + and discipline. Even if they are link with enlighten lvl 4 .. i dont see how u can have enough mana to resummon your golem (257mana) during fight.
What am i missing ..
The issue migh be too low mana pool – consider getting some more mana.
Did you manage to add a fuller tree? i would also like to know where to put my extra nodes?
Thanks
same, can we please get fuller tree
I have added Ziggy D’s tree as an alternative.
u can still go for ziggy D’s build if its never going to happen here. same same. Actually when u are at 85 then you should be able to throw away some unneeded nodes and gain extra from ziggys compared to this one
I added Ziggy’s tree as an alternative
Hi what flask set up is best for this build?
Thanks for the build. Im starting it now. My question is on the Primordial Harmony Cobalt Jewel there is a stat
“x% increased Golem Damage for each Type of Golem you have Summoned”
becasue the build only summons one type of Golem three times doest this stat not stack? and if it doesn’t I’m confused as to why the build uses two of them.
Hi,
I’m new to poe.
Do u have a passiv skill tree guide?
I’m totally confused 😀
I don’t have the guide for this exact tree but you can take a look at how other people level Golemancer builds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZp-lHQQBog . Also this is not the easiest build to pull off while you’re new but good luck 😀
I’m finding it quite difficult to do guardians, they just continually target me and kill my golems and me. I’m at level 85 so far, and I’m running high roll jewels (3 harmony, 2 eminence, 1 might and 1 anima), 175/145/194/143 resists in hideout, so all capped, 4746 life, 6295 energy shield… I run around as much as I can to avoid being hit, I resummon my golems for the damage boost from the might jewel (45%), I even tried running 4 flame and one stone for its taunt but it still just isn’t cutting it. am I doin’ something wrong? I normally play various evasion-based rangers so there’s no way it’s just my inability to dodge stuff. flames have 19k life and I have all the ascendancy nodes and my tree is currently a bit of a hybrid between the default one and ziggyd’s, basically as similar to the two as possible at my level. any recommendations?
why cast when damage taken on weapon? if hit it auto cast stone golem
i main fire golem build,
It doesn’t work the way you described it.
If the CWDT taken is high enough level to summon a level 12 stone golem, it will be summoned on trigger. If you keep CWDT level 9 or lower, this will not happen.
It really does auto cast the stone golem if you are hit when on the weapon (as well as triggering all of the other abilities on the weapon). I assumed it was for the buff from summoning new golems?
its auto casting mine and its annoying
What is the point of having flame dash AND lightning warp? I must be missing something here.
your build is great i followed your build and make some more upgrades on it and the result was stunning 🙂
