    I'll have this section up by the end of the week and another as I'm working to keep up with the high demand of making an online solution.

    To answer your question, the Frost part is located in the secret room where the Elephant statue is. This room is gained via a network of other secret passages from the room where you first met Daleson via the secret entrance into the keep.

    Casting SLOW helps a lot to defeat them, as well as putting the Flail together, which does some serious damage on any foul beast this early in the game.

    Ok here is the stratagy I have been using unsuccessfully on these golems in the Keep. Please forgive me because I am using an Everquest like tactic.

    I'll have the my my other 5 guys stand in the hall outside (fighter types in the front, mages and archers in the back). Everyone starts out hasted and blessed with a chant going.

    I then use my main char (lvl 8 monk at the time) to run in and grab the one items (i think there is a war hammer, a bow, the fire head to the flail of ages, and one other thing). I dont bother taking the middle one, because it is attached to the biggest golem (no chance in hell i was going to win). So I take the one on the left (fire flail head), and run out of the room with 2 golems on my tail. I wait until one golem is out of the first set of doors and close it so I only pull one golem out. I then drag him to my group and procceed to 'try' to beat his stony butt.

    Almost all my chars have +1 weapons. I have casted lots of slows, I have chromatic orb'd him several times, I poison him, I have Yoshima fighting with a +1 katana, my monk using a +1 longsword, minska using 2 +1 maces, and my cleric/fighter using a sling +2 with +2 bullets and almost EVERY thing is not effecting him. The ocasional spell will work, but that is it. Do i need +3 weapons?

    Not sure where to go from there,
    Thanks
