Diamond Golems are level 6 neutral creatures recruited from the Golem Factory but only when found on the Adventure Map.
"Like the Stone and Iron Golems found in Tower towns, diamond and gold golems are highly crafted statues animated through magic..." RoE manual

ToughnessThey have very low defensive stats for a level 6 unit, the lowest health value if we exclude the Enchanter and also the lowest defense. OffenseThe Diamond Golems also have the lowest attack and damage values of a level 6 unit. Efficiency and costBecause they can be recruited pretty easily after taking a Golem Factory, and also due to their very low cost, they are units worth having in early game. However, later on they serve only as cannon fodder. TacticsSince they take only 5% damage from spells, they can be used by a hero who has learned Armageddon, allowing you to sometimes wipe out your enemy's army in one spell, without hurting your own stack too much. There are much better options available out there (Namely: Efreet, Black and Gold Dragons or Phoenixes), but Diamond Golems can be an option if need be. If you have a stable access to their dwelling and enough resources, you might consider placing them into a town's garrison (but beware of morale). |
