Useful Info

Crystal golems are tougher and stronger than measly clay golems, but otherwise behave the same, slowly tromping into combat and crushing you for heavy damage. They are nearly immune to all elemental damage forms, but are susceptible to physical damage, non-elemental Conjurations, or Lee's Rapid Deconstruction/Shatter, and their slow speed makes them easy to kite. Crystal golems are very rare, generally only appearing as guardians in certain vaults.

Variant Crystal Golem

You may encounter several crystal guardians while exploring certain vaults, along with orange crystal statues. Unlike normal crystal golems, these hulks are also capable of casting Bolt of Fire and Bolt of Cold. Be aware that the vaults they inhabit are made of green crystal walls, so they CAN multizap you if you stand in the wrong place. Bring tons of resistances, lure them out one at a time, and prepare for a nasty battle.

This crystal golem is so ensorcelled that it is immune to nearly any magic itself, and it can also shoot powerful beams of fire and cold at any trespassers.

Tips & Tricks

Hitting a golem with Lee's Rapid Deconstruction creates a large blast of powerful crystal shards, useful for taking out crowds.
