Those spells are specificaially designed for repairing constructs, not golems, however I'm sure if a golem does not have magic immunity it can be repaired buy this spell. Yes a golem is a construct, but not all constructs are golems, or have the magic immunity as listed. Golems with the afore noted immunity to spells, spell-like effects, & supernatural abilities all have a built-in mechanism for healing. For example in the case of the iron golem, for every 3 points of fire damage it would "normally" take it is instead healed (or repaired) by 1 point per. They don't need the T&B spells. 2. You have to weigh the pro's & con's of the half-golem template. What is being gained for a mere CR increase of +3.If you treat the Magic Immunity (ex) ability as a spell resistance, as something that can be lowered you get the following.Benefits;- AC: +11 bonus- Breath weapon (su) (in the case of the iron half-golem this ability can kill, quickly!)- Damage resistance 25/+2- **Selective - Magic immunity as an Iron golem to spells, spell-like effects, & supernatural abilities (able to be lowered as per spell resistance)- Free healing, in addition to regular magical forms of healing, from fire- Only become slowed from electrical attacks- Fort+2 racial bonus- Str: +12 bonus- Con: +4 bonusNegatives;- Cha: -6- Int: -6, - Dex: - 2,- Rust vulnerability______________________If you treat the Magic Immunity (ex) ability as a permanent uncontrollable feature that can NOT be lowered you get the following.Benefits;- AC: +11 bonus- Breath weapon (su) (in the case of the iron half-golem this ability can kill, quickly!)- Damage resistance 25/+2- Magic immunity as an Iron golem to spells, spell-like effects, & supernatural abilities - Free healing from fire- Only become slowed from electrical attacks- Fort+2 racial bonus - Str: +12 bonus- Con: +4 bonusNegatives;- Cha: -6- Int: -6, - Dex: - 2,- Rust vulnerability- Magic immunity as an Iron golem to spells, spell-like effects, & supernatural abilities_____________IMO my second example seems more inline with a CR increase of +3</blockquote>
