The tempest golem is a golem and the boss of the Howling Peaks DLC found in the Gale Sanctum mission of Minecraft Dungeons.

Lore

Spoiler warning! This section contains detailed information about Minecraft Dungeons that may spoil your enjoyment of it. Read at your own risk!

Upon the shattering of the Orb of Dominance, one of its shards landed atop the Howling Peaks. From there, it corrupted the ancient tempest golem within the Gale Sanctum. From this sanctum, it brought harsh storms and dark clouds across the summit, threatening to blow the entire world to rubble. Amidst the snow and wind, illagers and heroes began climbing the mountain, racing to its peak. These heroes repelled the illagers, stormed into the tempest chamber, and destroyed the tempest golem, bringing a soothing breeze across the mountain.

Spawning

• Gale Sanctum
  • Higher Gauntlet (Boss)
• Tower (Boss)

Behavior

The Tempest Golem never moves from where it spawned, always remaining immobile similar to the Corrupted Cauldron. It has 4 different attacks. Chilling, Satchel of the Elements, and other freezing abilities do not affect the Tempest Golem's attack speed (However, it does work on the other DLC bosses). The Tempest Golem is invulnerable to damage unless the two pillars nearby are deactivated, causing it to be stunned temporarily.

The Tempest Golem's melee, shield, and lightning attacks can knock away other mobs, but not damage them.

Sword attack

If a hero goes to either side of the Tempest Golem, it smashes the ground with one of its sword arms, creating a small shockwave around it and deal some or a bit of damage to the hero.

Shield attack

If a hero goes in front of the Tempest Golem's body, it quickly opens its two shield panels, dealing little damage and knocking them away. It then closes them shortly after.

Electric tornado

Occasionally, the Tempest Golem summons a lightning bolt to attack a hero. This is signified by a blue square on the ground which follows them for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds, lightning strikes down on that square, dealing heavy damage.

Squall golem activation

After the Tempest Golem is stunned and gets back up, or when it is initially activated, 2 squall golems from the back of the arena activate and attack the hero. There are 8 squall golems total in the back.

Health

The tempest golem has 18,000 HP. On Default I, all mobs have 9.6% health and 12% damage of what is set in the code.

Screenshots

• 
  A rare bug in which the Tempest Golem's head keeps twitching after all of its 4 limbs are deactivated.
• 
  An Ambush produced by the Tempest Golem in the Windswept Peaks.
• 
  Another Ambush produced by the Tempest Golem.
• 
  Two heroes facing the Tempest Golem, stating the possibility that the Golem's arms are easier to deactivate when in multiplayer.
• 
  The Tempest Golem's idle animation is similar to that of a Squall Golem.
• 
  When the hero deactivates one of its arms, it briefly glitches after the animation is finished (seen through slow motion).
• 
  The Tempest Golem (Enchanted) using its Golem Shields to launch the hero at a far distance (but doesn't do much damage).
• 
  Despite its size, the Tempest Golem is unable to deal more damage then a Squall Golem, not even its Tempest Thunder.
• 
  As of 1.9.1.0, the Tempest Golem's Golem Blades and Tempest Thunder are somehow not dealing damage to the hero.
• 
  Even though the Squall Golem cannot pick up the Key Golem, the Tempest Golem can.
• 
  Due to an error, the Pillar may not Deactivate the arm 100%. Which would prevent the Golem from opening its legs that protects its weak spot.
