A squall golem is a hostile golem that can be found within the Howling Peaks DLC of Minecraft Dungeons. They are naturally deactivated, but spring to life when wind is directed toward a nearby resonance crystal.
Spawning
Squall golems do not spawn during ancient hunts. They also cannot spawn with enchantments, although they can be enchanted by enchanters.
Lore
Squall golems are ancient and mysterious[1] semi-sentient beings made out of stone, gold, and jade that guard the Gale Sanctum. They are powered by vertical axis wind turbines on their back, which awaken them when a resonance crystal is powered by wind.[2]
Behavior
Squall golems can't be stunned by normal attacks, except for artifacts, and melee enchantments.
Squall golems are unable to pick up key golems.
Power off
Squall golems are not hostile at first; they start off unmoving on the ground. When inactive, they cannot be attacked.
Power on
Squall golems activate if a wind is directed toward one via a nearby resonance crystal.
Attack
Squall golems charge towards the hero with quick melee attacks, which causes a shockwave that knocks the hero back and deals heavy damage.
Drops
Squall golems always drop a random consumable when defeated.
Health
Squall golems has 1,050 HP in the code. On Default I, all mobs have 9.6% health and 12% damage of what is set in the code.
