Don't look now, (DeWar, I know you're already hip to this) but HolyMan is back around, at least somewhat:

He hasn't asked to resume playing Simeon, I don't know whether he will, and I'm not sure that I would allow him to do so, but, there it is -- he's back on ENWorld. Okay, I am now sure that Simeon won't be joining the party of wizards at their present location, even if he is still alive and wandering the Underdark somewhere.

And let's not forget the d20SRD: Golem, Flesh, with other sorts above and below

Actually, I think it was a Rod of Smiting and a Staff of Striking. The RoS was the cleric version of the Staff of Striking.

I saw nothing on the rod or staff that would comfort the flesh golum in either of those links

I think Rod of Smiting was a 1E AD&D thing.

The 1E AD&D DMG says about it:

"Rod of Smiting: This rod is a +3 magic weapon which inflicts 4-11 (d8 + 3)
hit points of damage. Against golems the rod does 8-22 (2d8 + 6) hit
points of damage, any score of 20 or better completely destroys the
monster, but any hit upon a golem drains 1 charge. The rod does normal
damage (4-11 ) versus creatures of the outer planes such as demons,
devils, and night hags. Any score of 20 or better draws off 1 charge and
causes triple damage: (d8 + 3) X 3. The rod cannot be recharged."

I actually never knew that such an item would bust up a golem that way! Thanks, Scotley and DeWar, for cluing me in about this! A Rod of Smiting is usable only by a Cleric or a Fighter.

 

[Scott DeWar]

That is the item.

We could use the mongrel right about now. That Golem is fearsome. I'm a little worried about this fight. Oh well. Off we go.
