First, u need to be N/Mo.

You take Verata's Aura, Verata's Gaze (as a security blanket persay), Contemplation of Purity, Flesh Golem, Verata's Sacrifice, Blood of the Master, Heal Area, and Prot Spirit.

You cast verata's aura, raise a golem, wait for it to recharge. Then contemplation, prot spirit fast, flesh golem raise, then aura again. Now u have 2. Rinse and repeat. BUT! After about 3, you take too much damage. So you will need a boon prot monk healing u when u do it. Stand over the corpse you are going to raise a golem from. It's somewhat of a goof around build, or a build you can use with a well organized guild group. Cheers.

You can control up to 10 flesh golems with this, and maybe more (try venturing out with another necromancer and see if Verata's Aura will allow control of more then 10 minions at any one time)

Anyways, these Golems put out a TON of dmg. These 8 guys here leveled a Jade Brotherhood Knight in about 4-5 seconds. Twas fun! Give it a try, and if you want to experiment on a wider scale, PM me ingame, and we can go have some fun MM experimentation! (IGN: Shadow Warrior Five)

Enjoy the screenie!

Yeah, they have to change the way gaze and aura work to fix it, and that would RUIN the spells, so doubtful ANET will nerf this. And besides this, do you realize how DANGEROUS it is releasing 8 flesh golems for even a brief second? LOL

Could be photoshopped, or then there really isn't a limit at the Island of the Nameless, where that photo seems to be taken.

Just to counter any sceptics: No photoshopping, and no this isn't just available on the Isle of the Nameless. And somebody has reached 101 golems.

i'm not understanding how to make more

Quote:
If target hostile animated undead has a master, its bond to its master is broken, making it hostile to all other creatures. If it had no master, you become its master. (50% failure chance with Death Magic 4 or less.) if you can only summon 1 flesh golem, how do you make it have no master?

and whats contemplation for? you arent going to have a hex or condition or enchantment on you.

Contemplation of Purity ends one enchantment and one hex, I believe. Casting CoP will end Veratas Aura and make the minion(s) hostile, which allows another necromancer to cast Veratas Gaze on the now hostile minion.

Maybe I missed something? If I did, my mistake.

EDIT: It seems this is about a solo necro making more than one minion? My bad. Still, taking Aura off..you now have a hostile minion. Animate another minion then cast Aura. Now you have two minions under your control. I imagine a few flesh golems going hostile on you would be a pain...

I imagine a few flesh golems going hostile on you would be a pain... yeah, it starts to really hurt after 3 without a monk, but with a good monk getting you prepped right after u CoP, its all good. However, I have been thinking about something. A 55 Necro back in Tyria could use this, then simply switch armor in an area with hexes. You dont really need the whole 55 setup, just 55 HP and prot spirit, and one henchy with you, to make your first corpse. Then go from there. I am going to give it a try today, I will report back on how things went.

Good news, with a good group on VENT, this can clear out any area on both continents except Fire Island Missions (you can do outside Emberlight). HOWEVER, they nerfed this in 12v12. We tried to do a mini 4 man Golem Factory. The INSTANT you contemplate off aura inside your main spawn area, the golem dies, leaving its corpse. Happened 4x in a row last night. So PVP= no go.

Well, I tried this with a friend today. No healing along with us at all. I was just watching him mess around.

He managed to get 5 up by himself until the original golem fell.

Tried it just now. Doesn't work. The instant you cast aura, the first golem dies.
You can have a bunch of masterless golems running about, but you can't get them back under your control.
