How to Summon Golem

Lihzahrd Power Cell Method

Golem is summoned using the Lihzahrd Power Cell at the Lihzahrd Altar, which is located in the Jungle Temple. Both the altar and the power cells are found within this biome-restricted structure.

Steps to Summon:

• Defeat Plantera: The Jungle Temple becomes accessible after defeating Plantera, who drops the Temple Key needed to open the entrance.
• Acquire Lihzahrd Power Cells: These can be found in the Jungle Temple’s chests or rarely dropped by Lihzahrds and Flying Snakes within the temple.
• Explore the Temple: Inside the temple, locate the Lihzahrd Altar, typically found in a large chamber toward the end.
• Summon Golem: Approach the Lihzahrd Altar with a Lihzahrd Power Cell in your inventory and interact with it to consume the cell and summon Golem.

Note, that Golem can be summoned and fought at any time of day, unlike many other bosses.
