That bone golem was insanely disappointing looking

Barely any bones, too much damn flesh, and it’s active ability is just garbage in implementation, watching it slowly saunter to the location to do the taunt then for some reason, ignore any nearby enemies will go right back to it’s initial target. I can only hope the other 2 golems look better.

I would just bake him into a skeleton spell

Sorc can enchant 2 spells while losing 0 slots

Necro golem is crap

Hell just throw him into the damn skelly summon spell, he gets auto summoned regardless and will just taunt when he wants, no need to make it manual.

He dont die and sheds corpses for ce.

Uh, he CAN die, don’t post lies.

It’s the flesh golem from WoW Shadowlands’ Maldraxxus / Necrolords faction. Players got to make their own golem.

As soon as I summoned it, I had flashbacks to reading The Maxx comics from the 90s.

My biggest issue is that he clashes with the Skeleton summons in a huge way. We got these glowing blue ethereal magic skeletons for no reason and then this pasty pallid golem that’s trying to match the aesthetic of the rest of the game, but is an eyesore among the rest of the minions. Weird design choices.

the fact the golem spell takes up a much needed action bar slot… really grinds my gears.
i mean for crying out loud it gets autosummoned anyway.
like the posters above said; just bake all the golems into the skeleton spell and call it “Raise minion” instead of “Raise skeleton”, and whenever you use the ability it casts the golem’s ability alongside the priest buff.
let me use that slot for something interesting, like another curse or something. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Straight from Diablo 3, ugly as hell. Doesn’t match the game looks. And the quest, holy cow, bland and boring.

THe golem itself looked fine but it clearly wasn’t a SKELETAL golem. It was a FLESH golem.

I worry about the golem as well
Aesthetically and functionality
The design threw me off a bit, I confess and I’m not sure it adds much in a summoner build where you benefit on having large number of minions once it adds only 1 minion
With the Slam Beta the skeletons designs (mage and warriors) were greatly improved.
Let’s hope for the design and action of Golem as well

Looking at the selection of golems, the bone golem appears to be the only one of them possessing a taunt?

Blood golem takes some of your damage and iron golem stuns.

Pretty sure the blood golem will be objectively better in near every situation if it makes you feel better.

There was a video that showed the other golems and IMO they looked pretty cool but I can’t find it now.

This could be a prebaked in China design/seller because in China they are not allowed to have games that depict skeletons, for some obscure religious reason that I don’t the full story of.

Be interesting to see the Chinese version for a skele built necro

tired of lame looking golems in your necro summons?
dont worry! Many amazing golem skins are coming to a diablo4 in game shop near you!
