Elemental Wave and summon golem

when i use elemental wave then summon golem i get a shadow golem like it should be but with the difference of the shadow golem being weaker then my rank 1 snow golem so um is the shadow golem unaffected by clay alchemy or something? Please clarify what if anything modifies how strong the shadow golem is as i want it to be stronger than my snow golem because the shadow golem looks more cool but if it is weaker then there isn't a reason to use it. Also how much of a buff to the stats of the golem does the Elemental Wave give?

I'm not quite sure. I only notice there is a buff to some degree.

From what I noticed:

• Slightly Faster? I can't tell with its animations
• Taunting is fun.
• Appears to be stronger than my friend's r5 golem (I borrowed my friend's account for all of the videos for Alchemy btw o -o)
• measly 500 CP compared to the rest.

Elemental Wave affects Summon Golem very...strangely. The skills are awkward, the golem is apparently weaker and I'm not sure if it's even advised to use it for summon golem unless you need something to soak hits...which it's very good at doing btw.

Come to think it of it...it may be possible that the Shadow Golem is influenced only by Elemental Wave with Summon Golem stats. more testing needed as I still do not have elemental wave on my main. No nx to rb. I will ask around though.

as i started with the summon golem and clay alchemy on rank 1 it might be that it is only effected by summon golem and elemental wave to which hopfully it will get incrementally stronger and end stronger than the one with clay alchemy rank 1 as i have not been able to run tests on the alchemy mastery rank as i have not been able to rank it lately due to lack of ap

Just a quick blurb. After achieving Rank 1 in all Earth Alchemy Mastery, Alchemy Mastery, Summon Golem, and Elemental wave; The Shadow Golem becomes stronger then even a Magic golem.

I noticed consistently similar damage between Magic Golem and Shadow Golem at rank 5 Elemental Wave. However the Magic Golem had 1765 HP (With all bonuses minus Clay Alchemist title) Whereas the Shadow Golem held 1885 HP.

Once Rank 1 Elemental Wave was reached, the damage was consistently higher on the shadow golem (around 1-2k higher smash damage), and it grew to having 2061 HP. So undoubtedly the Shadow Golem is stronger then all other golems, the only downside being the lack of a 26 minute timer, it still is 6 minutes at max rank. However where the ranks correlate together and why the Shadow Golem starts so weak I am unsure of.

yes but my question was does the shadow golem only depend on alchemy mastery and elemental wave or is it alchemy mastery, clay mastery nad elemental wave ?

The only ways I could to test is to make a character with rank F or even novice clay mastery and alchemy mastery while only ranking elemental wave while having rank F golem. This would be the most controlled way to see what affects what. Also Alchemy Mastery does affect the golem, as it affects the size.

Actually come to think of it, I do have an elf with all the prequisites I mentioned...even with novice chain cylinder...I'll throw up some results as soon as I get elemental wave......if ever.
