I've read several posts about fighting golems. I somehow managed to pick up a Rod of Smiting (I forgot where). If a golem fails its save after being hit, it is instant death. I just give it to Jaheira, have her suck down a potion of giant strength to help her to hit rolls, and whack!
I want to say I bought that rod at Trademeet.

that stinking rod does not work on some tob golems....grrrr............................
on sec level of watchers keep?? it did not hit the golems at all!!!!
i think it does not work on adamantium golems, you need +3 to hit, and the rod i think is only +2...

The Rod of Smiting is a +3 weapon, so it will hit iron and adamantite golems. The problem with it is that it allows a saving throw vs. death, and iron and adamantite golems have decent saving throws.
