In case you haven´t tried it yet, parry a golem with a shield and quickly swap to your pickaxe, you´ll be surprised how fast he´ll go down. It completely trivializes them.

You can jump on top of them, and they can't hurt you. You can then pickaxe away with impunity. Usually 3 good smacks and it's dead lmao.

I know but it´s not true that you can fight them with impunity, because there are two golem types with different attacks and one of them has some sort of overhead attack that definitly hits you when you are standing on top.

Furthermore the parry and then pick method is 100% more efficient. Try it, it´s awesome.

In regards to weapons, I can´t wait to try krom. I love two-handed swords. I have just cleared another infested mine and found 5 cores so now i have 7.

Is this enough or do I need ten cores?
