Useful Info

Electric golems are one of the more dangerous monsters in the Realm of Zot. They move twice as fast as most species and Blink constantly while shooting lightning or annihilating you in melee. They're much more resistant to electricity and poison than they are to fire and cold.

Spells: Lightning Bolt, Blink

Tips & Tricks

• Electricity resistance and decent AC are mandatory for survival. If you lack rElec, quaff a potion of resistance and teleport away.
• Levitation or flight also reduces the damage of its electricity attacks, but not as much as proper resistance.
