We have a situation in our group.
The players are a pretty well rounded group of 5, 13th level characters (Fighter, Hospitaller, Sorceror, Shadowdancer, Monk) who are trying to defeat two Iron Golems. They realized that they were not having much luck getting past the golem's 15/adamantium Damage Resistance, so decided that discretion would be the better part of valor, and got the heck out of dodge...
After confering with some sages as to what the vulnerabilities of Iron Golems would be, they are now getting ready to engage their foes once more.
The problem is with the Monk. Right now he is doing 3d8+4 damage with his fists (Monk's Belt and Amulet of Mauling). He could get some Monk weapon in adamantium, but then he would only be doing something like 1d6+4 dmg (although this would get him past the DR).
Can he get adamatine gauntlets? We're pretty sure that Monks can't use them.
It seems that a Scarab of Golembane would certainly do the trick, but it is a very specialized item that takes up his neck slot.
Any other options or suggestions?
