Forest Golems are living trees, animated and given purpose by Nature Mages. They attack by throwing rocks that they tear out of the ground, or by swinging their deadly limbs. They move with long, ponderous strides.

Drops
Tutorial monster drop table. Chance per kill, before Magic Find:
| Drop | Chance | Item level vs. creature level |
|---|---|---|
| Gold | 16% | |
| Health potion | 5.0% | -10 to 0 |
| Mana potion | 3.0% | -10 to 0 |
| Tutorial item | 6.5% |
Confidence: Medium Read from the drop table named in the creature’s template. Fixed rewards of story bosses, quest items and what a placed monster carries are not read here. Not tested in game.
Base Dungeon Siege II
Level and strength
| Mercenary | Veteran | Elite | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level | 2 | 40 | 64 |
| Life | 24 | 1,169 | 2,750 |
| Damage | 5 to 9 | 97 to 161 | 205 to 341 |
| Defense | 16 | 136 | 228 |
| Experience | 30 | 30 | 30 |
These are the base game’s numbers. Broken World changes them: see its version below.
Confidence: Medium Worked out from the formulas in the creature’s template, for the levels the template gives. Not compared with the game’s own Bestiary screen; spawn spots may change a monster’s level.
Weaknesses and resistances
| Mercenary | Veteran | Elite | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fire | -5% | -5% | -5% |
Confidence: Medium As written in the template. A negative number means it takes more damage of that kind. Values of 100% and more are shown as given; the effect of going past 100% has not been tested.

The chance is for one kill of this creature (level 2 / 40 / 64 in Mercenary / Veteran / Elite) with magic find at 0: the chance that its drop table rolls an item of this kind, times this item’s share of the items that can come out at that level. Items with the same name are added up. Creatures of the same kind that the Bestiary lists under other names share the same drop table at their own level. Computed from the game’s drop tables, not measured. A source rolls the entries of its drop table; an entry asks the game’s item table for one item of the right class inside a level window; every matching item is equally likely (the game picks a random row, there is no rarity weight). Chance is per kill or per opening, with magic find at 0.

Confidence: High the audit of the data files, confirmed by the in-game kill test
In-game kill test: unlocked after 5 kills (agrees with the data audit)
Natural spawn census: seen in 1 of 10 runs, most in one region: 9. A lower bound; a run only loads the areas near the party.
Kill counts are kept separately for Mercenary, Veteran and Elite. See how the Bestiary works.
