How would you defeat this?

Find and trap several rust monsters. Let them loose on the golems. You have to love exceptional abilities and vulnerabilities.

Honestly, I think a straight out fight would be workable. They don't have DR, you don't have magic weapons. As long as the PCs can retreat, heal, and try again they should win.

I just had a crazy thought . . . It is quite plausible that the party doesn't even notice the antimagic field for the first half of the combat. They just charge in swinging and hacking up the golems. It is only when spells noticeably fail that they clue in.

That would be funny.

I like the encounter from Dragon where every time the red dragon uses his breath weapon the two iron golems get the fire damage as healing....That is just evil

Works the same way with Blue dragons and Flesh Golems.

Sure seems clever up until the moment that party realizes they should completely ignore the golems and hit the dragon with everything they got. There's a fine line between clever and stupid.

 

[Xarlen]

Well, Sure.

But, that's before either the Dragon has Improved Invisibility on himself, as Alter Self so he looks like another dragon color, or lets the Golems go after spellcasters.

And if the group can't see invisible, then they're screwed anyway.

Because the Iron Golems lose their DR, fighting them in the AMF wouldn't be too bad. After all, most spells won't work against golems anyway, so they'd still have to be beaten down, even outside the field. It will take a bit longer, and depending on AC, the PCs might take more damage, however, sheer meanness and possibly setting up a way to heal damage should carry the PCs through.

The poison will be much nastier in the field though.

Simple, just cast Wish and get it over with.
