| description = Large, black mud golem. Shaman, casts SOW and alacrity on nearby mobs, has a pet. Scowls at a sneaking rogue, but does not see them. 

Highly spell resistant to all but poison/disease based spells. However, magic based spells with resist reductions like [[Drifting Death]] will often land. If facing these as a build that primarily uses magic damage, make use of the Overchannel Invocation to land important spells - particularly resist debuffs.

Golems will run at low health and in old EQ they would gate, but has not been seen doing this in Everquest Legends.

Many times spite golems are patrolling mobs and will sow and buff many other NPCs on their path.

===Lore===

Spite golems are the shock troops of Innoruuk, used primarily to defend his plane against invaders. These massive, black stone constructs are strongly resistant to magic of all kinds, making spellcasters of limited use against them. Spite golems also emit an aura of hatred around them, like many of Hate's inhabitants, magically sowing discord among their enemies. When fighting, the spite golem's movements sound like the grinding of enormous rocks. Their immense fists are fully capable of punching through solid wooden doors with a single blow.

Spite golems cannot see invisible creatures, per se, but they can sense the spiritual energy given off by living creatures. As a result, they are often placed at crucial areas and checkpoints within Innoruuk's realm, often with one or more undead allies and/or servitors, so as to prevent any unwanted visitors from slipping past using invisibility.

Spite golems are thought to have been created by Innoruuk and his most powerful servants by fusing the spirit of evil shamanic servants of the Prince of Hate with immense stone bodies constructed for that purpose. As a result, every spite golem has the spellcasting abilities of a shaman.

One particularly immense spite golem is said to exist somewhere on the Plane of Hate, known only as the Master of Vengeance; this remarkable creature reputedly  has the full spellcasting capabilities of the greatest of shamans.
