Golem

Golems are sentient rock-beings that are encountered in the DLC Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.

Overview
Golems are large, powerful creatures, being animated out of the very stone of the earth. They resemble a mound of rocks with two glowing eyes and a glowing furnace in its chest. Golems, unlike Treants, are capable of great bursts of speed and are also capable of dealing heavy damage. The most common Golem is the Rock Golem, but there are also more powerful Steel Golems, wielding a spiked mace and sporting high damage resistance.

Strategy
Golems are a bit trickier of an enemy than the Treants. While slow-moving at first, they can run at high-speeds in a powerful charging attack. Golems also have great jumping abilities akin to that of an enraged Goliath. Golems have several ranged attacks in addition to melee attacks. They have a basic rock-throw as well as a fire-based attack where they launch fireballs from the furnace in their chest. Golems are capable of whipping their fist out at a player on a teather of mystical energy. If hit, this significantly limits the player's movement speed for a short while, giving the Golem a chance to strike again. The furnace in their chest is a critical hit point, but if hit to many times, it is destroyed and the Golem transforms into an "Unbound Golem." Once unbound, a Golem becomes more powerful and aggressive than before. An Unbound Golem's face is a critical hit area to make up for the destruction of the furnace. Steel Golems are more powerful varients of the regular Golem, being heavily armored. However, their primary attack is a ground-pound type attack that exposes the furnace in their chest to gunfire. As the Steel Golem raises its arms above it in preperation for a ground-pound, a gap will appear in the Golem's armor. In  lieu of the critical hit point, Steel Golems are weak against Corrosive attacks.

Notable Golems
Unmotivated Golem: a Golem with a sword stuck in his back and found on the The Unrelatively Unvisited Shoreline. He lies on the ground, unmotivated, until the player accepts the "Sword in the Stoner" quest from Roland
