Golem - The Indestructible Tank
🛡️ Maximum Combat & Durability
Golem is the ultimate tank in Dispatch game with Combat 9/10 and Vigor 10/10 - the highest defensive stats possible. When missions require raw power and survivability, Golem is your guaranteed success.
Golem Overview - The Living Fortress
Golem is a combat specialist designed for one purpose: taking and dealing massive damage. With the highest Vigor (10/10) and second-highest Combat (9/10) in the game, Golem is your answer to any mission where hero safety or overwhelming force is the priority.
Stats - Pure Power
Perfect For
- High-Danger Combat: Bank robberies, supervillain fights, riot control
- Tank Missions: Situations where the hero will take heavy damage
- Overwhelming Force: When subtlety doesn't matter, only victory
- Hero Safety Priority: Missions where you can't afford hero injury
Best Mission Types for Golem
S-Tier: Extreme Combat
Missions with Combat 8+ requirements or marked as "extremely dangerous." Golem guarantees success.
A-Tier: Endurance Missions
Long, grueling operations where Vigor 10 ensures Golem never tires or falters.
B-Tier: Standard Combat
Regular fights where Golem is overkill but works. Consider Coupé to save Golem for harder missions.
F-Tier: Puzzles, Diplomacy, Stealth
Never send Golem to: Missions requiring Intellect, Charisma, or Mobility. Golem will fail spectacularly at negotiations, tech challenges, and chase sequences.
Usage Strategy - The Specialist Approach
Golem is a specialist, not a generalist. Use strategically:
✅ When to Deploy Golem
❌ When NOT to Use Golem
- • Any mission with Intellect, Charisma, or Mobility requirements above 5
- • Chase sequences (Mobility 3 = guaranteed failure)
