What can be done with a pound of flesh?

What different types of things can be done to Flesh Golem {E}?

Things that readily come to mind for me:

Death Nova + Taste of Death

Sympathetic Visage?

Zealot's Fire + Healing?

Judges Insight?

Can someone let me know anything else they may have found, and or if some of the ones above work? Most of what i put here is speculative.

All of those things can be done to any minion.

Exciting, i will have fun tonight ^_^.

Anyone else tried anything, or have any ideas?

A new trick is Dwayna's Sorrow on minions. When they die, you get a heal party. Minions probably make pretty good smite bombs too, a la Balth's Aura.

Golem doesn't really add anything different but its own corpse and more HPs from other miniions.

hummm zealots can't be used to add damages to golem's b/c he has to cast to trigger zealots, which he's not

if the point is to deal damages to foes near you, well...why not

With minimal (or no) investment in Blood Magic, I've found success with Dark Bond in conjunction with Flesh Golem. With the golem's resilience for absorbing damage (augmented by V.S. or B.O.M.), continuously renewing Dark Bond on yourself hands 75% of the damage to your golem. If you're any kind of caster build, I'm pretty sure he can take it better than you!

i saw someone say they making smite golem cant remember exactly but he said he uses judges and strentgh of honor...could be real powerhouse

well.. I like the following....

Flesh Golem + Death Nova

cast another Flesh Golem which kills the old dealing the AOE from DN. keep replacing your golems.... nothing like sitting there with a detonator!!!

Golem is sometimes fun to adding Retribution and/or strength of honor.

Mainly retribution b/c you generally get tons of enemies attacking it at once. Only problem there is the nrg maintainence.

have another necro cast tainted flesh on it?

nah, it's easier to just use tainted flesh on your minions and skip golem all togather.

At least, from my experiences.

How can stars bleed? Well, it just so happens that disease is the only condition that's limited to flesh creatures. I would assume flesh golem could be diseased, but not sure.

The whole condition thing is an oddity in GW>

Bone Horrors
Vampiric Horrors I don't believe that to be accurate. If it where so, then why can you pull bleeding from a minion using verata's sacrifice? I've pulled every condition but disease from minions (excluding golem, havne' tried vsac with golem).It's still in effect, so obviously there's something you can do to them for poison and bleeding. This is ofcourse, unless they've patched it recently (haven't MMed in almost 2 weeks now).

Might be thinking of necro spells that apply these. There are warrior skills that will cause bleeding and such on creatures that have no flesh. Don't ask how b/c I'm not sure. But, it works and works well.

So only Necro's can inflict bleeding on minions? I see. Yeah, I've been using warriors and rangers to inflict bleeding and poison on undead minions controlled by Necro riders and Skeleton Necros. It kept telling me no flesh. I've never drawn any condition onto myself that my minions when I use VS, so I just thought they were immune just like enemy undead were. I guess when I use it, my mininons never had any condition to draw from.

I know Poison and bleeding work on some undead, but not on others. I've never tried to poison or make the celestial creatures bleed, but since they don't leave a corpse, I figured they were just like all other monsters that leave no corpse.

Lol, I think that would be a pain if they did bleed Care Bears. Just think small cute little bears that have the ability to cast spells on you. Then there would be more monsters spawn when you make the celestial monsters bleed. Almost as bad, are the monsters that DO spawn other monsters when they die.

I didn't say that only necros could. I said that necros can't directly inflict those conditions on no flesh creatures.

I'm not sure how it works exactly, but in PvP and alot of PvE, when I've brought minions in and verata's sacrifice, I use VSac to heal them and all of a sudden, I'm Poisoned, bleeding, cripple, deep wound, weaken, and/or blind. If my minions can get those conditions, then there must be some way it can be applied. Possibly a glitch or unresolved loophole. But, I've pulled every condition (except disease) off of my minions using Verata's Sacrifice. That means that somewhere in the game, it must be possible to inflict them on minions.

I have no clue how it worked, but the warriors and assassin in my group managed to poison and cause bleeding on Kirin and the other celestrials. At the time, I only had enfeeble on my skill bar. I saw their life bars turn the darker red (indicating bleeding) and green (indicating poison) at some time during the mission. I used that and their incessant self enchanting to launch discord on them for 79 dmg. I love disobedience for spiking.
