[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5152307, member: 57383"] Hmm, come to think of it the Blade Golem has a DR 10 points higher than a Flesh Golem, 6 points more AC, spiked defense and a 2-point higher Strength modifier (and hence attack and damage). That makes it a significantly nastier melee fighter, so perhaps we should up the Challenge Rating and/or cut the DR. How about making it DR 10/adamantine and Challenge Rating 8? Those spells look fine to me, but I think it should cost more than a Flesh Golem, since it's a bit tougher. The high-quality metals and tinctures should probably cost a bit more too. Maybe 27,000 gp price with materials costing 2,000 gp?: [B]Construction[/B] A spiked golem’s body is sculpted from 2,500 pounds of assorted metals, smelted with rare tinctures and admixtures costing at least 2,000 gp. Assembling the body requires a DC 13 Craft (armorsmithing) check or a DC 13 Craft (weaponsmithing) check. CL 8th; Craft Construct, geas/quest, keen edge, limited wish, caster must be at least 8th level; Price 27,000 gp; Cost 14,500 gp + 1,000 XP. [/QUOTE]
