How to Summon a Golem in Diablo 4

To summon a Necromancer Golem, begin the “Call of the Underworld” quest, which you’ll unlock at Level 25. The quest takes place in Sarkova Pass (Menestad Waypoint), west of the Kyovashad sector of the Sanctuary’s Fractured Peaks sector. After you’ve achieved the “Summon Golem” skill, place it on your hot bar. When activated, your Necromancer will summon a Golem companion to follow in your footsteps. It’s important to note that the first Golem you unlock at Level 25 is the Bone Golem, then the Blood Golem at Level 28, and finally the Iron Golem at Level 32.


Types of Necromancer Golems in Diablo 4

There are three different types of Golems in Diablo 4, each with its own unique set of abilities:

  • Bone Golem: A formidable protector, taunting enemies and redirecting their attacks towards itself.

  • Blood Golem: This life-draining entity absorbs life from nearby foes to heal and fortify itself.

  • Iron Golem: A steel amalgamation delivering ground-shaking slams, stunning and incapacitating enemies.


Abilities Unveiled: Diablo 4 Necromancer Golems

Necromancer Golems are similar to the Book of the Dead in Diablo 4. They have strong active and passive skills.

  • Active Ability: Golems become unstoppable, draining enemies' blood in the vicinity. This inflicts 40% damage and heals 4% of the Golem's life for each enemy drained. Notably, damage and healing triple when draining a single enemy.

  • Passive Ability: Players benefit from a protective Golem with 165 lives, dealing 21% damage. The Golem absorbs 15% of the damage directed at players and recovers life through attacks.
