I just read about it in another thread. :D But the thing about IG is that you need alot of +golem mastery in order to make it withstand physical dmg. And the fact that you can't recast him at all makes this golem hardly worth it for me. Why bother with an elemental immune tank while it's just as easy to recast your gumpy?
For me, the easy with which you can recast a Clay makes it better than an IG.

This does not mean that IG doesn’t have a use. The fact that he can be made elementally immune very easily is fantastic for tanking. Things like CB, OW and CtC Static are also really nice for helping you take down a Boss. But you do have to keep in mind that you can lose your IG and that it is sometimes better to use a TP an retreat than to push on. I wouldn’t use an IG with something like a Skelliemancer.

It would be helpful is we could recreate the list of mods that work with IG and mods that don’t. It would also be helpful if we could get conformation of the fact that IAS does not work on IG. Maybe someone could check the game files.
