Petrification - equipment stoned too?

[AuraSeer]

I assume that stoning always effects equipment, because it's usually represented that way in fiction and mythology. The lair of a gorgon or cockatrice is usually described as a gallery of statues, not a gallery of "stone people wearing real clothes."

 

[3d6]

Not quite. An golem is immune to any spell or spell-like ability that ALLOWS spell resistance. Golems do not have spell resistance. So any reference to how spell resistance works does not apply to golems, including the voluntary dropping of SR.

Note that this means that a Golem can never travel with its master through Teleport spells, Plane Shift or even use a Teleportation Circle. Maybe this is why wizards created the Shield Guardian?

From the 3.5 SRD:

Voluntarily Giving up a Saving Throw: A creature can voluntarily forego a saving throw and willingly accept a spell’s result. Even a character with a special resistance to magic can suppress this quality.
