Pseudo-SC building question

[tinkthank]

I've never actually made an SC as you folks use them, since I am sort of slow and timid and like to spend my points on scales.

For that reason, I find myself making a lot of path-boosting items, support items, etc., but rarely if ever items useful in melee combat.

But in a current game, I see an opportunity for me both to monkey about and experiment and, hopefully, to learn about this SC business.

Although this certainly is not SC, I was thinking of G-o-Reasoning a Siege Golem or five, for many reasons I wont list here, the upshot of which is I want to experiment with SCs, S-Golems I can get, are fairly cheap, and I can use them as roaming scary guys as well as siegers.
Key here is: I dont want to invest *hugely* in this, just moderately.

Since S-Golems come with robust protection, decent HP, and full elemental resistance (I think), they seem the perfect target to G-o-R. Have many people done this before?

I was thinking of giving them the following items, also because they are no huge investment
- wraith sword
- amulet of antimagic (they lack only in decent MR)
- lucky pendant
- QUESTION: Boots of Quickness or Boots of Behemoth? Both look like a good choice
- QUESTION: Silver Hauberk (air shield), Rainbow Armor (MR and reinvig), Robe of Shadows, a Berserker Pelt, or something else?
- QUESTION: HOrned Helmet? Starshine Skullcap just for the MR? Or splurge on a Wraith Crown (and then definately not get the Robe of Shadows above)?

Well thanks for your help, I am new to this.

Also, as a question to open this thread up for more discussion: What are YOUR favorite Gift-of-Reasoning creations with which you have had decent success and fun? (Besides the doom horror about which I have read elsewhere but never seen in-game.)
