Golem CP

are you sure about Golem CP being non-fixed?

Yes.

Question, how do you take a screenshot while holding alt to view CP? (Not asking how to view CP.)

Main Menu > Screenshot > Hold ALT > Press OK.

When Mabinogi attempts to create a screenshot, it does not go into the Mabinogi Documents folder. The only way I am able to screenshot, even on a clear reinstall, is to click outside of the game, hit screenshot, then paste elsewhere. Others i know also have this issue, I assumed everyone did.

Snipping Tool.

That still wouldn't work unless you know of a way to trigger the snipping tool while its not the active window, or know how to make the Mabinogi window not let go of the Alt key while using the snipping tool window.

1. Make Mabinogi the 2nd active window.
2. Make Snipping Tool the active window.
3. Hit "New".
4. Hold Alt.
5. Pray.

Excellent solution, thank you very much!

Alternatively, hold left alt, right click on the title bar (where it says Mabinogi followed by the celtic cross) and let go of alt right after.

In-Game:

1. Hold Alt in Mabinogi
2. Quickly release Alt and click Prnt Screen
3. Image will be in the Mabinogi folder in your "My Documents"

Alternately:

1. Do what Nope or Lexis suggested.

I thought CP viewing was from a function-who-shall-not-be-named.

If this is legit, shouldn't it be mentioned on the CP page?

This isn't about CP viewing, you still need illegit for that. This is about how you can take a screenshot while people's names are highlighted (as if they're using the alt key).

Ohh, I see. Silly me.

Looks like I made a mistake. The Shadow Golem inherits the CP of your original golem.

Ehh..that still doens't explain teh amount of 500CP shadow golem's I've seen, which is why I've put 500 cp. If you are ranking Elemental Wave, check it's damage and CP for me? I theorized that Shadow golems are weaker due to Elemental Wave's rank while gaining bonuses from only Summon golem, throwing out clay mastery/clyinder bonuses. Elemental Wave has actually made a person's shadow golem weaker than their standard r1 snow golem. Another person on the talk page of Elemental Wave stated a similar incident. All the info I dug up (from NA forums and foreign sites) doesn't exactly help explain what is changed.
