Feb 21, 2023 at 6:11 comment added Xisnue It occurs to me due to the golems nature, that they'd have issues with a lot of effects. Like a Wind Wall would be more effective than an Wall of Force with their lightweight forms. So there isn't a huge shortage of weaknesses, just a bit of writer's block in determining how to word such circumstances. I've also considered that slashing resistance rather than immunity might highlight this inherent frailty of material. In the end I still want it to feel like a golem, but be cannon fodder compared to more durable material.
Feb 21, 2023 at 5:59 comment added Xisnue Most of the immunities come from the Palimpsest, which I don't have any clear ideas why it's immune to fire. The og construct being an ambush monster that has a good chance of killing a single party member if the group handles the encounter badly. This homebrew is supposed to be used in groups, to try and overwhelm then, but in the end are just a weaker/inferior golem.
