The Golem, when unpiloted, will act as a companion to the player. In this situation, it will act at 50% [[quickness]].


The Golem, as a Vehicle, will always have room within its body for the player and one companion. The player can pilot the Golem by sitting in the [[Pilot seat]]. When piloted, the player has access to a modified form of the standard menus which cover the golem's equipment, the golem's stats and mutations, the golem's skills, the golem's inventory, and so on, as if you were the golem. This means you can spend gained stats, MP, and skill points. Piloted Golems also have access to the abilities 'Recoil to the Court of the Sultans', 'Exit Pilot Seat' and 'Eject'. It also always has access to Sprint and will eliminate all Mental Shield parts. It starts at level 50, with 500 base HP, and has [[Dark Vision]] at level 1. {{XML Reference|object|BaseVehicleGolem}}

In cases where the inherited type does not provide a stat distribution, it will also start with an even, weak, and randomized, stat distribution (set at 14+1d3+10d1 for all stats). Similarly, a golem's DV is the DV of its base type, or 0.{{XML Reference|object|BaseGolemAttributes}}

Bodies take on some of the inheritable attributes of their Creature type, along with an appropriate (but not necessarily the same!) anatomy. Additionally, some have innate mutations, or modifications to base stats, beyond their Body or Creature base. These are covered in the 'Notes' column. {{File Reference|file=ObjectBlueprints\Creatures|note=Base body types can be found in by the 'Body Type' column in the Body table.)}}

At a high level, the golem will get natural weapons in every slot whose type matches a slot with a natural weapon on the follower or, if none exist, the first default on the golem body or, if none exist, the primary limb type of the golem body, or if none of those exist, the primary limb of the follower.

For example, Bears that have two claws and a bite will end up with a Bear Golem that has a Face Metachrome weapon and four Foot Metachrome weapons. {{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Units|class=GameObjectMetachromeUnit}}
The above paragraph means that if a follower does not have any natural weapons, AND does not have a reasonable primary limb set by default, they may end up with fewer Metachrome weapons than they could have if they picked a different primary attack limb. For example, a Decarbonizer comes into existence with their Body as their primary limb, and no natural weapons, and that determines which of their limbs becomes Metachrome. If, instead, you use some method to change their primary limb to their arms, then they will get the same 2 Metachrome limbs that other more normal turrets get.


The various names/types of metachrome weapons are defined in the table below. 'Open' is the term to refer to a metachrome weapon that does not match any of the other types in the table below.

Note that Golems with a body based on a robot follower will be [[Robotic]], and therefore unable to use tonics.
* The golem is in a strange state between being a Mutant and not being a Mutant. An organic form counts as a [[mutant]] when using {{favilink|Eaters' nectar injector}}s give random stats or MP.  
* Unlike the above, drinking {{favilink|warm static}} only shuffles skills and not its mutations, as if the Golem were a Truekin.

* Many kinds of Golems will require levelling weak members of their classes up to 30 on your own to use their bodies.
** Even using a [[True Kin]] body, like {{favilink|Saad Amus}} does not make the Golem able to install cybernetics beyond its Hamsa.
** However, drinking {{favilink|warm static}} only shuffles skills and not mutations, as if the Golem were a [[True Kin]] (likely due to failing an IsMutant check. {{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.Liquids|class=LiquidWarmStatic}})

** Giving books of varying sorts to the Librarian of the Stilt tends to be very useful for getting past the early levels.
* Several kinds of Golems are difficult to get followers near enough to the pile to select.

** Anything that does not move on its own is difficult, and you'll often have to think about it. A generally effective method is to use a recoiler set on top of the Pile while the follower is set to follow.
* It is possible to prevent the use of the normal staircase [[Barathrum's Study]] by using the [[Chrome key]] as a Hamsa. It is advisable to use a security card or [[Bethesda Susa]] key if one desires a [[Phasing]] Golem, lest you have to use the northwest staircase and dig into the study, or use a [[spiral borer]] to create a new staircase.

* While you are piloting the golem, it needs to drink (like most bodies.) While it is following you, it doesn't (like most followers).

* Due to the way that metachrome limbs are assigned, there is a trick that can enable some body shapes to get extra metachrome limbs: A method of gaining extra limbs with natural weapons on the follower which match a slot type on the resultant Golem body, where normally that creature has other natural weapons that are included in the resultant Golem Body, makes both the extra limbs type and the normal natural weapon limbs end up with metachrome weapons. The easiest example is to use {{favilink|circle of light in the chord of Agolgot}} to give a stone wall follower pincers (hand slot natural weapons), and then create a Golem with that follower. The Golem will naturally get the two stud slots as metachrome weapons, and also the small crack slots as metachrome weapons because of the pincers matching the type of the small cracks (hand).

** This trick appears to backfire with [[Girsh Qon]] as the source for a Golem Oddity, as it will reduce its normal 3 slots to just the singular hand.
** This trick appears to backfire with [[Girsh Qon]] as the source for a Golem Oddity, as it will reduce its normal 3 slots to just the singular hand. Qon spawns with 'shave flaps' in its back slot, but equipping the agolgot chord makes the flaps vanish.
** As noted above, a follower with no natural weapons will use its assigned primary limb for attack as the limb type for metachrome limb assignment. Using this trick, due to providing natural weapons on the body, overrides the primary limb being set.
