Elementalist - Liege of the Primordial

Mentioned skill shows :
" 40% increased Damage of each Damage Type for which you have a matching Golem
Your Elemental Golems are Immune to Elemental Damage
100% increased Effect of Buffs granted by your Elemental Golems"

But i am using ice golem, wchich has 22% increased acuracy and 22% crit chance
and nothing shows 100% increased buff.
I suppose it should be accordingly 44% each buffs.
Hard to say about increased cold damage, but it seems to me that that skill just does nothing.
Does it work "automagically" not showing it's effects, or it doesn't work at all ?
Could anyone confirm that ?

Best regards.

It works automatically for golems when you summon them, If you run a spell non crit cold build, you will not see too much difference really in terms of dps. Ice golem with characters that use accuracy and have a weapon with high base crit on the weapon will benefit a lot from it.

Also remember that the 40% increase dmg is only equal to 4x10% passives, so dont expect too much from that either, most dmg comes from links and multipliers(more%).

You can just check your char screen crit chance before and after summoning the golem. I found the skill to work fine with a flame golem since it gave me 80% increased dmg when alive(was using flame totem).

Imagine a 12% crit wand with a crit chance gem linked, thats 14% total base. With a lvl 20 ice golem you get 60% increased crit chance, which will then give you 8% more crit chance.

Yes i know the mechanics and actually counted percentage and it works:
I use Freezing pulse wchich has 6% chance to crit, without my ice golem crit chance is 18,30 total, and when i summon it ,changes to 20,94, "base" golem crit chance is 22%, wchich is 1,32 but with Liege of.. it changes to 2,64 (22%x6 = 1,32, 44%x 6 = 2,64) So the skill apparently works well, although a little tooltip on skill Gem would be really nice.

Best regards.

kinda useless IMO,

I still wonder why they scrap the summon lesser golem idea. The first version looks a lot more fun to play
