Elementalist + 3x golems (did some testing)

Not sure if this is the right place to post.

For those who were curious about certain interactions with golems and Liedge of the Primordial.

So i bought 2x Clayshaper hammers which grant +1 to max golems and lvl 12 stone golem (very strong for that level). This way i can summon 3 golems. Did labyrint (3x golems +SRS rekt Izaro) and took Elementalist class and put points into Liedge of the Primordial.

Liedge of the Primordial effects:
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 bonuses granted by your Elemental Golems

Results:
Stone and Chaos golems are not considered elemental golems, so their buffs are not doubled. Stone golem regen is not doubled and Chaos golem physical damage reduction is not doubled. However Stone golem increases physical damage and chaos golem increases chaos damage by 40%.

Now with multiple golems:
Same type golems effect don't stack. Meaning if you have 3 chaos golem, you will only get 40% chaos damage and not 120% (T.T). Same goes for other golems. Their buffs also dont stack, meaning chaos golem will only provide physical damage reduction as if only 1 chaos golem was summoned. Same goes for other golems.
However different golem types do stack and elemental golems provide double buff value. Meaning you can use 1 chaos golem for 40% chaos damage + flame golem for its damage buff (increased by 100%). For example any lvl chaos golem + lvl 9 flame golem (17% increased any damage type) will give you 40% from chaos + 34% from flame golem buff for a total of 74% increased to chaos damage.

Lightning skills are only affected by flame golem's and ice golem's buff (which are increased by 100%).

I was basically building summoner but with those weapons you can make hybrid summoner using other skills like essence drain, EK, SWT, while maintaining chaos, stone and flame golem benefits, making you tanky and giving damage at the same time.

I was a bit disappointed that golems effect don't stack. But maybe it would be too OP to have 3 flame golems stacking 40% x 3 + 40% (from lvl 19 golem) to fire damage.

A belated thank you for this investigation.
Thx for info. Golem buffs seem bad if they don't stack. Using two weapons to get extra golems just doesn't seem worth it.
