Iron Golem ?

What happens to a iron golem cast from an item with "Indestructible" on it?
ie IKSC Ogre Maul - Nightfish's guide says its good everywhere except CS when the OB knights cast IM.

It means you don't have to take it to Charsi for repairs? :)

Indestructible doesn't transfer to an IG, since it doesn't have any durability to lose, and it doesn't create an invulnerable (or even resistant) IG.

I think Nightfish recommends making an IG out of the IKSC because of the Crushing Blow mod on that weapon--as Shade points out, the Indestructible mod is entirely irrelevant. The sockets are also handy for adding life leech to keep the golem alive.

life leech doesn't effect the IG, IIRC. but that was in 1.09. has it been changed.

I'm sure it worked in earlier versions, but it's a long time since I've used an Iron Golem for anything and thus I could be wrong. It's happened before (audience faints in shock at this bombshell :)).

why wouldn't life leech work?

say I (stupidly) made an IG out of an Amulet of the Leech. are you saying that the golem would be no different than if I made it out of a non-magical dagger?

I just took a look at the Arreat Summit, and all it says is that "certain properties" will not transfer to the Golem, including Mana Leech. It didn't mention Life Leech at all, and I'm sure my cloudy memory has a picture of an IG with a red leech swirl on it...

IIRC, i think i read about life leech props somewhere in the necro forum before 1.10. maybe i'm mistaken....oh, what the hell...:innocent:

I was wondering what people use to create their IG. I currently have one created from a 'Famine' rune word weapon. It kills things in Act V Norm in 1 hit. :yep:

Can you make IG's out of amulets?
no you can't.

Grimfeng: that's an expensive IG. you'd better make sure it doesn't die or 'disappear'. places like maggot's lair are just convinient too loose your golem. once i made mine from stromrider. it's a super cool LEIG :lol:
