We all know the IM/BG feature (some say it's a bug). It is based upon the fact that damage done by IM is considered to be inflicted by the golem and therefore the golem steals life.
Following the same logic, I came up with the idea (I'm sorry if it has already been debated) of a necro/pala party where necro uses life tap as a curse (life tap makes the attacker steal life - sort of like blood golem feature - a life leech) and pala uses thorns as an aura (thorns acts like IM and at high lvl it returns even more damage then IM). The thorns would act like IM and the life tap would act like the property of the blood golem, making thus the pala and the necro minions as efective as a blood golem (and we know that a blood golem never dies with IMed melee monsters - not even on hell/hell).
A such combination would be lethal, alowing the pala to hammerize/zeal/charge/... (every combat skill) monsters without ever losing HP.
If this hasn't been tested, i believe it worthes to try.
I believe this should work if thorns/IM and life tap/blood golem leech have the same mechanics.
