Diablo 4: How to Summon a Golem as a Necromancer

The Necromancer’s undead army in Diablo 4 is a crucial part of being one of the strongest characters in the game.

However, while golems are powerful, it’s a long journey to unlock them! If you are curious, continue reading to discover how to summon a golem as a Necromancer in Diablo 4.

How to Unlock Necromancer Golem Summons in Diablo 4

To unlock golem summoning in Diablo 4, you must raise your Necromancer’s level to 25 and complete the “Necromancer: Call of the Underworld” quest, which you’ll start the mission immediately after reaching this level requirement. During this quest, you’ll find the Shrine of Rathma and explore a cave; upon approaching the mission’s end, you’ll unlock golem summoning.

Once you complete Call of the Underworld and unlock golems, you can head into your Book of the Dead and find them below Skeletal mages, which you gained at level 15. Like your other units, you can enter this menu and give them special perks or sacrifice them as you level up.

You’ll also have three different golem types to choose from, much like your other units. I stuck with the beginning default golems for a while since they’re already quite powerful, but it’s also helpful to experiment with them to fit your build and playstyle!

How to Equip the Summon Golem Spell in Diablo 4

To begin summoning golems, you’ll have to open your skill assignment menu from the skill tree. You can access it by pressing S on PC or using the left joystick from the ability tab if you’re on a console. The golem spell will appear next to “Raise Skeleton“, which you can assign to your skill hotbar and use!

Since it takes up its own slot, you’ll have to sacrifice one of your other spells to accommodate it.
