X+XA+XBY

in which:

X= The total amount of golems of any type (preferably the type you wish to calculate the buff for)

Y= The total amount of golems.

A= The sum of flat buff for your golems displayed as a fraction. (30% becomes 0.3).

B= The sum of buffs per Golem. as of Version 3.14.0b this value is either 0, 0.25 or 0.5 depending on how many of the perks you have in the Elementalist Ascension
