      The new golem guy is a pretty good friend. He’s good for taking the heat off me in boss fights.

      Other than that, I agree - mimic tear (and maybe black knife tiche for the odd field boss) number 1!

        Those smith golems are such an incredible pain in the ass to fight. I haven’t killed one yet even with non-stop backstabs and I’ve taken down a furnace golem just by whacking its legs

          Rolling sparks on the lightning perfume kills them really quickly. Mind you rolling sparks kills most things quickly right now. With the right setup you can kill

          Yeah, I always run past those smith golems whenever I end up in those forge dungeons. They’re frustrating damage sponges, and that’s why he makes such a great buddy :)

          Really? I just did one or two rolling attacks to the buttruby and that was enough to stagger every time (admittedly, that’s with a UGS). You might not have enough skidoo blessing if they’re giving you that much trouble.

            I was at scrabble level 4-5 in the first forge you can reach and landing crits non-stop, using eleonora’s poleblade since it combos with the Ranah outfit buff, and I think they’re just crazy resistant to fire and piercing. Might try again with the dragon Hunter katana I levelled to kill the lightning dragon in the pool before Bayle
