In WoE a clown will normally go for survivability, and functionality over damage. Golem prevents ur weapons from ever (yes fcp fades, and somtimes theres no creator immediately available) ever getting broken, and loading up on magic defense, high hp, and reduction gears will reduce the amount and duration you are are frozen, if not completely blocking, as well as being able to live through the nasty skills like AD and asura with just a few simple gear switches.
