It's pretty damn hard... you can kite the golem and get all your debuffs and stuff to land, but once you start tanking him and damaging him it's a tough go. An industrious shaman can keep up with his dps, I think, but the problem arises from getting interrupted at crucial points. Cliff Golems hit pretty damn hard and interrupt a lot, and 2500hp or whatever is not a lot of leeway.

I'd heard that it's a tough fight for a decked out Velious shaman. I always imagined an ogre might have a shot at it, assuming you'd be saved from some interrupts. If any shaman has soloed a Cliff Golem (to death) on p99, though, I'd be seriously shocked.
