The player must use Cantlin Shields to deflect the golem's attacks as it hurls boulders at the city. After about three times, the golem will be enraged and begin spinning around in circles. When it stops, it is dizzy. This is the time to use a wrecking ball on it. The wrecking ball will blast it into pieces and take a chunk of its HP off. Then, the pieces reassemble and the golem begins hurling boulders anew, repeating the cycle.

====''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker]]''====
Gold golems appear as rank D members of the material family and can be scouted within Palaish Isle's shrine where they can be found on the second floor in the room with a coat-of-arms hanging on the far-wall, though their appearances are relatively rare.
In ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2]]'', the gold golem is a Rank D [[Material family|material]] monster in ''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2''. One can be synthesized by mixing a [[Metal slime|metal slime]] and a [[Gasbagon|gasbagon]].

The '''stone golem''' (originally ''Stoneman'' or ''Rock Golem'') is a golem constructed of stone blocks instead of clay bricks.
While some games have rendered stone golems as superior to their normal brethren, other titles have shown the stone golem as being weaker; though they still boast the general strength and stamina of their relatives. They have a tendency to charge up power to increase their already crushing blows.
