Love the idea of a Metal Grid Iron Golem.

Dang ... looks like I have to revisit the 2006+ D2 LoD days with the introduction of the runewords.

Metalgrid Amulet is awesome ... but you have to build around it:

Required Level: 81
+400-450 To Attack Rating (varies)
Level 22 Iron Golem (11 Charges)
Level 12 Iron Maiden (20 Charges)
All Resistances +25-35 (varies)
+300-350 Defense (varies)
(Ladder Only)
(Only Spawns In Patch 1.10 or later)
_________________

What your character build gains:
+400-450 To Attack Rating
All Resistances +25-35
+300-350 Defense

Now you have to choose the items and skills required to benefit:
Level 22 Iron Golem (11 charges) ... and items available to you to reproduce etc
Level 12 Iron Maiden (20 charges) ... and how to use them etc? Build type / Classes etc.

There are only three(3) benefits with with this amulet:
#1 Attack Rating
#2 All Resistance 25-35 AND
#3 300-350 Defense.

None of these should be scoffed at.

You wrote all that just to say the stats on metalgrid. Wtf

??? I only copy/pasted the stats for other readers to comprehend the BS behind the question and the Answers given by veterans giving advice so they could be on par... but then... you just had to jack off to your hype... grats... here is a "WALRUS" clap for your achievement of being a "Seal" ... (insert Walrus / Seal sounds:)

EDIT: Yup, an EDIT... so... what character build can utilize the mods from the Metalgrid Amulet? ... what you don't fucking know, but you shit on my comment... dude... the only head bonking you see is from looking at your reflection in a mirror making a dumb post.

EDIT2:



Damn... that is just a simple Nec right?

More gibberish. It's for a sorc build. Doubt it'll work since the golem will have very little defensive stats but it has potential to compete with self weild infinity nova sorc if it can survive.

Enough of your ramblings gramps. You need to be put in a home

Why the fuck didn't you say so in your post:



Oh Damn... can you not even look at your own first post and debate properly... I stated the following:






And then you responded with your shit... oh you want to a re-cap on your replies???



Yay... you mentioned Light Sorc, however my post was about re-evaluating your CHARACTER BUILD... a light sorc using a Metalgrid Amulet is pointless because you don't build around the modifiers of the "Metalgrid Amulet", HOWEVER, you could create a different build (stated in my speil).

Your response to a semi good idea is this (not ideal for a Light Sorc, end of story):



ETC... etc ... etc... etc... and so on.

You failed to see the value of my post and also those from others... go and research more.

Yes it is true - i see no value in any of your posts. Including the above rant. Are you senile?

So be it, however, you want to create a Lightning sorc and diminish the build using Metalgrid amulet when you are better off using a Mara's amulet (at the same drop rate % as a metalgrid amulet) just for a 5 minute Iron Golem when you could do more runs without it and not waste items on creating it? ... damn... you may as well use a Saracen's Amulet.

Do your research a bit more and you don't need to ask.

EDIT: sorry... this is better:

Seraph's Hymn*
Amulet

Required Level: 65
+2 To All Skills
+1-2 To Defensive Auras (Paladin Only) (varies)
+25-50% Damage To Demons (varies)
+150-250 To Attack Rating Against Demons (varies)
+25-50% Damage To Undead (varies)
+150-250 To Attack Rating Against Undead (varies)
+2 To Light Radius
(Ladder Only)
(Only Spawns In Patch 1.10 or later)




I edited my post to prove a point, but then... here it is for you... you will most likely not reply with this being an edit.

EDIT2: I guess it boils down to Kill speed vs another tank merc when you only teleport using a bot... I don't use a bot, I use skill and knowledge of the map and monster spawns for said area(s)

I.E. Cold plains in Hell difficulty... 90% are cold immunes ... wow... go to Chaos and 90% (Hell Diff) are fire immunes etc and so forth.

...
...
Hey... want to do Countess... Fire / Cold Immunes... but many Immune Physical... but, go to Mausoleum.... Lightning Immune undead + archers + phys immune etc.

There are many more... Nihlathok... now this one is great, but most monsters in the area are ... poison / light / cold immune ... but you need DR especially with vipers that may spawn. ... yup... knowing what types of monsters spawning in the areas help you build a better build... but you have to compromise... thus... Metalgrid Amulet is SHIT on a Light Sorc.

The fact that you recommend maras on a light sorc shows how braindead you are XD

If the iron golem could survive it would be a viable and near meta build. As is - i can use the same setup but just forgo the insight iron golem or if static dmg is subpar ill just swap back to self wield infinity.

This topic was over stop bumping it you idiot.

Why don't you just go with infy on normal arc2 merc and crescent moon in hand

Deff the most dmg of all of this options. If you have convi from merc, even CM+Spirit will give you more dmg than self wield infinity, but if you go with CM+jmod, so much better.
