Season levels and rewards#
Health and all attack-damage values are species bases, not final damage. Health scales by 1.065^(level−1) and damage by 1.05^(level−1), also modified by server strength. Season elites multiply health by 2.5 and damage by 1.3 before additional elite abilities. Base kill XP is the coefficient × (2 + 0.4 × monster level), then modified by elites, server rates, damage contribution, level-gap reduction and weakness. Summoned helpers award no season XP.
Spawning & habitat#
Does not spawn naturally; stands guard at: Village
Season structure guards are fixed encounters, not spawners; defeated guards do not automatically respawn.
Behaviour & abilities#
- Cannot be knocked back.
- Guards its village: attacks monsters within 24 blocks of the village centre that it can see within 16 blocks; it turns only on a player who strikes it.
- Its blows throw the target high into the air, unless they are blocked.
Drops#
| Item | Quantity | Entry roll | At least 1 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Iron Ingot | 2–4 | 100% | 100% |
These are unscaled base rolls. A quantity of zero yields nothing. Elite/area modifiers, bag space and applicable material limits affect the result; a kill is not a guaranteed drop.
Strategy#
Do not strike it: its blows hurl you high, and a slain golem stays gone until the weekly reset. Monsters it kills give you nothing.
City siege vs wilderness#
Not in the current city siege spawn pool; this entry describes the preview wilderness rules.
