I was reading the Summoner Necro PvM guides and saw the suggestion to socket a Homonuculus and Shako with “Mana After Each Kill” jewels, in addition to using Silkweave boots. Just wondering if anyone has any personal experience and how you did mana wise in PvM and how you overcame any mana issues?

Silkweave for sure. I use them on my Nova sorc (merc uses infinity), and she ain't chugging mana pots anymore!

Insight iron gollem

Do you need to put as many extra points as possible into Iron Golem if you go this route to help keep it alive or does 1 base point cover it?

Great idea, just wondering how often it will die / be able to take hits from Lightning Souls / Baal?

If you’re teleporting around to avoid dmg and have decent end game gear for + skills then it should be fine as long as you have a point in summon resist and golden mastery

not sure, but i guess meak doesnt work with summons...

I think I was thinking Corpse Explosion would help with this. Silkweave helps a little, but I feel like I would need a Homo shield socketed with a Maek jewel as well.

yes, with ce meak will work..

but i would keep the sockets free for something better,
go for insight, if u like constantly to ce
- on merc or golem, ur choice

conviction is a nice dmg boost for cadaver explosion, but u dont need it really hard...
except high player count - but the dmg will be low anyways on p8
