  Crazy golem. What are the numerical figures for the range of effect?

  Not sure of the exact radius, I think its radius is apox. 1500~1600
  
  Its a bug so I don't think anyone will go testing the exact numbers.
  
  
  Its too big for any dungeons/SM anyway
  
  Heck, I can't believe I couldn't even see the golems head even with the help of a mod

  Yes its a glitch/bug whatever you want to call it,
  The main problems is that Devcat have left this exposed for weeks now.
  There were two Maintanences a few patches to fix some bugs.
  However, this golem glitch is still left untouched.
  
  This glitch is OVERPOWERING the golem (which may I remind you is already being discussed about because of it being too powerful even without the glitch)

  I can see how such a big golem will be annoying for dungeon play.
  I don't like how golem is overcentralising the game too. It's not like I want to use golem as main attack. I just want golem as a back up.
  
  If they could implement a cool time down and retain the (pre-13?) power of golem (and reduce the size), I think it might work out better.

  If it should work as backup then it should at least let you put AI on it.

  But golem isn't a pet...
  I like how the golem controls are right now, which puts you in a fairly vulnerable position.
  Probably the only thing they should do is to disable golem control from outside dungeons.

  I have to agree,
  IMO, golems should be backups, not attackers.
  
  After G13, when users gained access to the earth alchemy mastery.
  The Golems size&dmg became overwhelming and easily surpass ppls who has a total lvl of +5k
  (Not to mention they've beome big enough to cover an entire room with its WM radius)
  
  The overpowered Golem's are discouraging other classes.
  No matter how hard they try they cannot surpass the golem's dmg rate.
  
  Moon told us that they are thinking of re-balancing the Golem.
  Devcat neds to do this fast.
  our KR server's is in a crucial state right now.
  The Golems are pretty much literally invading the community

  Oh, how I wish I could have golems that huge...
  But yeah, I understand how this isn't very good for the game in general. Not sure how a cooldown timer would change anything, considering it'd have to be 6+ minutes long for it to be effective, which would make training the skill extremely difficult, seeing as the number of kills and summons needed to rank it at higher ranks.
