Why not a lightning golem? Like the other elements?

They already anounced that lightning golem will come out. Does noone folow ZiggyD on youtube? He had a interview with a POE staff member or w/e and he already confirmed stone and lightning golem.

You don't need to watch streamers to predict lightning golems. The Witch's Elementalist class has a thing that summons mini-elemental golems, and it'd be pretty weird if we had fully modeled and animated mini lightning golems and no regular-sized lightning golems.

Was hoping for a blood golem, making all targets bleed as a aura and heal the player for x% of dmg done. Would have been a nice synergy skill for bloodlust too. So this is like a... brown firegolem? Meh.

Seems boring and these golems are never build-enabling.

Cwdt+ ice golem is pretty nice for coc builds.

TLDR: Killable buffs are stupid. Golems are mostly worthless and don't contribute anything meaningful. Please fix.

This so much. Golems and guardian needs fixing. They both should be changed into powerfull minions you build around and can directly control.

Golem: you cant summon other minions, has ridiculous stats
stone: most tanky golem, spams enduring cry and has melee splash
chaos: aoe dmg aura, very tanky golem
fire: spams multistrike fire cleave, tanky golem
ice: spams ice barrage, least tanky golem

Guardian: you cant summon other minions, your increases to hp/def/dmg with weapons/crit also apply to guardian
Uses skills based on a weapon it is made from (1-2 skills, or uses the skills in weapon)
so you end up with a more gear based version of golem.

By direct control I mean a way of directly issuing comands of goto and use XY skill... So you control two characters at the same time; it requires skill but also adds some reward.
Two systems:
"control spell" - you cast it and can give out orders, cancel it and AI works
perm - you can controll all the time, if you dont give orders for 3 seconds AI works
Also, you can always have a skill to open a programable AI book. Maybe you could socket skillgems into golems? And skillgems on guardian would matter?

YAY!!

why a QQ post as the first one?

Honestly this pityfull QQ is being seen overall lately, no matter what game, or w/e, no matter if or how good the new thing added is, there is always a huge wave of QQ about it as first.

strange world.
