Golem Overhaul adds 9 new golem types, all with their own unique mechanics!
Some are passive, like the hay golem, who can protect your crops from being trampled, while others are strong enough to take on mobs like the warden itself.
Netherite golem:
Netherite golem:
Right click to ride the netherite golem. Use your jump key to attack.
Right click with a gold ingot to apply a gold trim to turn all piglins neutral towards the golem.
Right click with a lava bucket to unlock the netherite golems summon ability - This ability will summon a group of coal golems to fight for the netherite golem. The keybind for this is set to "R" by default.
This will, however, make the netherite golem vulnerable to water damage.
Barrel golem:
Barrel golem:
Can be found naturally in villages. When attacked, the barrel golem will close its lid and hide as a barrel, reducing damage taken by 90%. It will also enter this state while sleeping through the night.
The barrel golem can be bartered with by dropping emeralds.

Candle golem:
Candle golem:
Candle golems can be spawned by right clicking a candle golem block.
They can be told to sit or stand by right clicking. While sitting, they take 90% reduced damage from projectiles.
Candle golems can be lit with flint and steel. When lit, they will shoot mobs with flame projectiles. Using this attack too much will deplete the golems health until their candle goes out,
and they'll need to be repaired.
Honey golem:
Honey golem:
Can be found naturally in birch forests. The honey golem will shoot mobs with a honey projectile, which applies slowness.
The honey golem can function as a bee hive, and will contain bees which both defend, and heal the honey golem.
These bees will also produce honey, which can be harvested from the golem for honey blobs.
Honey blobs are throwable items that function the same as the honey golems projectile.
Terracotta golem:
Terracotta golem:
The terracotta golems can be found naturally in badlands biomes, or summoned by placing terracotta golem statues near heat sources.
Terracotta golems are naturally hostile to mobs, and can be right clicked with cacti or dead bushes to improve their attacks. A cactus will increase the golems attack from 4 to 6, while a dead bush will give it a ranged attack.
Kelp golem:
Kelp golem:
The kelp golem moves fastest in water.
When within range of a conduit, the kelp golem will switch to its charged state and receive +100% strength, gradual regeneration, and +100% resistance until out of range of the conduit.
Slime golem:
Slime golem:
Can be found naturally in slime chunks, and will spawn as one of two size variants, each with their own stats.
Hay golem:
Hay golem:
Hay golems can either be built by the player, or found naturally in villages. They are passive, but will protect crops from being trampled within a 10x10 radius.
Coal golem:
Coal golem:
Unlit coal golems will spawn naturally around coal ore, and are passive towards mobs. Coal golems can be turned into lit coal golems by right clicking them with flint and steel,
and will become hostile towards mobs, but will die after attacking.
All info on stats, loot tables, crafting, and building can be found on the images page.
