Joined a cleric doing their quests to get into the Ascent and test these guys out this evening.. unfortunately they aren't flagged.

A hideous amalgam of shattered, twisted, and fused bone, the fearsome hulk before you rises to the height of several Gor'Togs. Clearly no natural beast possesses a skeletal structure as horrific as this - with uneven limbs formed of irregular, contorted lengths of flesh-stripped bone. Its claws are incongruent and jagged, bearing the unmistakable crimson stain of dried blood. Only a Necromancer of considerable power and vileness could meld the deceased bodies of so many beasts into such a horrific construct.


You see a gargantuan bone golem.
The bone golem is in good shape.
It is wearing nothing!
It is carrying nothing!

You sense nothing special about a gargantuan bone golem.

I was doing fine handling two or three with AD up at low 300 in defenses. It appears they're in the low 300 to 400 lessons range.. only (big) downside is how difficult it is to get into that place. There's a puzzle involving a coffin and a door that I think needs to be uncursed. They cast tremor like a rock troll and are accompanied by blood wraiths who do a lot of targeted casting.

The loot was pretty below average as well it seemed.
