Oh crap so then that means there is silver there! Because the sound pips are going off a lot on this mountain. So i need to use my pickaxe and go underground? Forget about pickaxe thing with the golem , use a iron mace lv 4 and thats all you need to kill that thing
And silver is underground , if you really are using the wishbone your character will be sorrounded by a pip signal , more intense pips , more close to the place where you need to dig
Also how am i supposed to get on top of the freakin golem and use the pickaxe? LOL the pickaxe animation is way slower and that thing hits hard! I killed one doing mostly meleeish kiting and finished him off with arrows but it was painful.
When the Wishbone detects something hidden, it will start "beeping". The closer you are to target, the more quickly it will beep. When it is near-constant and you can't move to get it to go any faster, you should be right on top of your target. That is where you need to dig. Hidden things can include silver (in mountains), muddy scrap piles (in swamps), and graves (mountains/meadows). Sometimes, you can loot a grave and the wishbone will keep beeping; logging out and back in should fix that, sometimes teleporting away and back will too.
It is possible to lure a golem near a slope or rock formation so that you can get on top of it. From this position, a pick can inflict serious damage on a golem, but it's easy to slip off, leaving you in a position to be attacked by the golem. Arrows are the safe way to fight them, but that costs arrows and time. In good armor and armed with a decent weapon, golems aren't too bad to fight in melee.
