Rock Golem

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

A Rock Golem can be found in the Enchanted Valley, by mining the rocks in the South-Western corner, as many discontinued random event monsters have been placed here. The Enchanted Valley is the only place where you can still find the Rock Golem, and as it only drops big bones the only real purpose to visit it is trivial.

The Rock Golem was a Mining random event, but is now Discontinued. Like the River Troll and the tree spirit, the Rock Golem would randomly attack a player that gathers resources that it guards; in this case, players Mining ores from rocks. The Rock Golem's level, like all other random guardians, were relative to the player. Their cry was: "Raarrrgghh! Flee human!"

[edit] Combat style

Rock Golems use purely Ranged, which hits up to 4. However, if you use Protect from Ranged prayer, it will switch to a melee attack.

Before the Update, the golem used to be purely melee combat. In an update, it gained a weaker but more accurate ranged ability, rock throwing, making it harder to avoid or escape from. If a player cannot fight and win, they need to run far enough away to avoid its ranged attack. Rock golems are vulnerable to pickaxe attacks.
