I used 2 of these golems as a standard level encounter for 6 level 24 PCs. They are outer guardians of a The Shrine of Tithe, a mountain top temple to Tiamat where wealth is gathered by Tiamats followers (or extortionists as I like to think of them <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />) and collected by an Exarch of Tiamat once a year. My PCs are raiding the temple to steal part of an artefact that is held there.  Stone Golem Guardian Level 26 Elite SoldierLarge Elemental Animate (earth) XP 18,000 Initiative +20 Senses Perception +27Golden Glow (radiant) aura 3; All enemies entering or starting their turn inside the aura take 15 radiant damageHP 484; Bloodied 242; see bloodied PowerhouseAC 42 (38); Fortitude 40, Reflex 35, Will 39Immune disease, poison, charmSaving Throws +2Speed 6 (cannot shift)Action Points 1 <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/bm.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":bmelee:" title="Basic Melee    :bmelee:" data-shortname=":bmelee:" /> Hammer Swing (Standard; at-will)Reach 2; attack +33 vs. AC; 2d8+10 damage (crit 3d6+26 damage); on hit target is marked <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/m.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":melee:" title="Melee    :melee:" data-shortname=":melee:" /> Double Hammer (Standard; at-will)Golem makes 2 Hammer Swing attacks against the same target, if both hit the target is also dazed (save ends) <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/m.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":melee:" title="Melee    :melee:" data-shortname=":melee:" /> Mighty Blow (Standard; recharge <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/5.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":5:" title="Five    :5:" data-shortname=":5:" /><img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/6.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":6:" title="Six    :6:" data-shortname=":6:" />)Reach 2; attack +33 vs. AC; 5d10+10 damage; on hit target is knocked prone and takes a -4 penalty to attack rolls until the end of Golems next turn <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/r.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":ranged:" title="Ranged    :ranged:" data-shortname=":ranged:" /> Golden Beam (Standard; encounter) ♦ radiantRange 20/40; attack +31 vs. Will; 5d12+9 radiant damage; on hit target is stunned until the end of Golems next turn; on miss target takes half damage <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/c.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":close:" title="Close    :close:" data-shortname=":close:" /> Golden Pulse (Minor; recharge <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/5.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":5:" title="Five    :5:" data-shortname=":5:" /><img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/6.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":6:" title="Six    :6:" data-shortname=":6:" />) ♦ radiantBurst 5; enemies only; attack +31 vs. Will; 1d6+9 radiant damage; on hit target is immobilised (save ends) Solid FootingGolem may reduce all push, pull and slide effects by 5 squares and if knocked prone may make a free saving throw to remain standing Bloodied Powerhouse ♦ when first bloodiedWhen first bloodied Golem regains an action point and until the end of the encounter it takes a -4 penalty to its AC defence and gains a +5 bonus to damage with melee attacks Alignment Unaligned Languages understands draconicSkills Athletics +28, Endurance +26Str 30 (+23) Dex 20 (+18) Wis 28 (+22)Con 26 (+21) Int 6 (+11) Cha 10 (+13)Equipment greathammer, gold bracer Technically I have since realised that they should have been natural animate (construct) and not elemental animate (earth). But the difference only has a minor impact on the game. They seemed to work really well providing a dangerous and exciting combat, they might be a little overpowered for some groups but I think they are just about perfect for mine. I would certainly like to know what other people think though, anyway I hope you find them interesting.</blockquote>
