The '''[[gold golem]]''' is summed up by its name: it is a golem made out of gold bricks. Typically, it is the go-to monster for amassing quick cash, usually being the weakest in the golem family. This is appropriate, as gold is one of the softest metals.
The '''Gold golem''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in the original [[Dragon Quest|game]]. It is a golem made out of gold bricks.  


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Great gleaming golden giants that smack and smash enemies with granite-tough fists of fury. Their metal bodies are massively tough, giving them time to save their strength for extra hard hits that can take out enemies in a single strike.
These [[Material family|golems]] are known for their gleaming golden bodies. Like the other golems, they have a pair of glowing yellow eyes poking out of the darkness from their heads. Typically, they are one of go-to monsters for adventurers who want to amass piles of gold quickly and tend to be weaker than their clay or stone counterparts. This is appropriate, as gold is one of the softest metals. In later games, the gold golems gained the ability to preserve their strength and even land desperate attacks on their opponents. They also have a tendency to drop golden jewelry or pieces of gold that can be used for [[Alchemy]] and item crafting.

Gold golems appeared from the beginning of the game. They originally only dropped 550 gold and could only be faced as a companion to other monsters. They use no abilities to speak of in this game, but are still strong opponents. In Version 1.5, the amount of gold they dropped was increased to 2,550. The golems have a tendency to be found in the hidden rooms of Magic Labyrinths alongside [[Gem jamboree]]s. They have a high chance of dropping both [[Gold nugget (recurring)|gold nugget]]s and [[gold bar]]s.
