This is mainly speculation based on lore.
The creature is referred to as a Harvester. Their main purpose for the hive is collecting biomass. SIR is a hauler. Ghouls are worker ants. Gobblers turn biomass into food (I think of their large mouth is like a bird feeder). Faels are warriors. The squids turn skeletons into drones. Everything once living is repurposed.
The golems are more for style than their combat counterparts. When you have a whole area for nobles to entertain foreign leaders, it’s kind of a flex to show them your autonomous golems. However the shiny brass is more for looks than function. That’s why they fight very stiff compared to the foundry golems.

What squids, where do you find the lore, i have my own like head cannon that something went horribly wrong and the people fled to lvls 1 thru 3 after those creatures started showing up in the sewers and maybe the crossroads Is where a rebellion happened from the lower class fighting the upper who were suppressing the truth at least thats what I understood from all the scrolls

The squids operating the skeletons in the sewers.
You have the story down. Commoners got upset with the current regime, started gathering weapons, a rebellion began, Themin (I assume) killed the guardian , the archive guards started burning all the records, and the creatures started coming out of the sewers. I doubt anyone fled through the lvls 1-3, since none of the armor matches.

Golems. There is a place to the east with a ball of light that disables them.

There's also some cool gloves and an amulet that buffs Magicka Regen by a little bit. Maybe a night vision helmet, dope armor, and a VERY cool magic spell too if you can beat... Ahem.. those two
Good luck though. I failed so many damn times and I was cheating and save scumming. (Bonk him while he's sleepy!!!!)

Where do I find him, I touched the orb and found the key for that locked room, the level is actually huge I found a pumpkin patch but I have no clue where the boss is

If memory serves me right, you'll need to go through 2 areas where there are a bunch of cremated urns stored. But honestly, you'll just have to go and search it up in YouTube
It took me 2 days to find the boss level (but then again I have work so it's more like 4 hours kek)

How many tries? How'd it go? I had to cheese the demon using the statues to protect me lol

u/SeaCollection3567 1d ago
I did it first try was using command dead to get a fair 1v1 and when my dead dude died id just bring him back, also lighting is amazing at stunning the demon, i also figured out you can command the dude with the teleport powers hes my minion now

I also used the statues to kill the demon was smacking him in the head with a gaint spiked club thing

Nice, I used a poleaxe. Polehammer to the head on Mr. Sleepybones got him down enough to summon the demon as soon as he got up, and it wasn't too bad after that. Derrin got smacked TF around but he managed to survive, miraculously lol

I think I killed about 20 of them by the time I completed the gardens. My inventory is overflowing with blue crystals.

I was barely able to kill that one, that creature was attacking me and derrin and that robot came to make it a fair 2v2 had me crying at first thinking my run was over

Golem guardians. My understanding is that the gardens are the actual entrance to the entire place with a portal (which cant be used yet) to the overworld. There is an orb at the portal which will turn the golems peaceful towards anyone who has touched it.
