If you are unsure if a rock is a disguised golem or not, a spyglass shows their name and level even when disguised. Also, when disguised, the rocks often move slightly as you get close, re settling onto the terrain.

Don’t get them mixed up with a rock.

Rock Elementals hate spike walls. They will get stuck on them and destroy your entire base.

DO NOT hit a rock that falls out of the sky. Thats a spawning rock elemental and it will roll you into a ball when awoken.

I don't think anyone has said this yet but, you can kill them easily with the pyromaniac. Just bite it a couple times, run away, and watch it burn to death. The pyromane's fire negates the golem's damage reduction

Oh a rock, I'll hit that with my pick for some stone. Oh hello mr rock element.........

First time I saw one of these I was looking in my inventory and suddenly it just stepped on me and squished me

If you kill them using a thyla’s gnashed ability then you can harvest their body with an anky. Killed a level 95 and just got 198 stone, 114 Crystal, 134 obsidian, 123 oil, and 78 metal from it. Hope this is useful to someone!! Have a nice day!!! :)

How to spot them:

If you go to the mountains on SE, were golems spawn more frequently, you can easily tell golems apart from rocks as they look SANDY compared to the grey or shiny metal rocks.

In the dunes or else where the golems have better camouflage, apart from being more…

Unless you are unmounted (rock throw can OHKO unarmored survivors), the Rock Elemental is really easy to run away from, it’s incredibly slow and loses interest in the survivor quickly once you get away a good distance.

Killing one is a bit tricky without a Giga (which…

Disguised rock golems will kinda move a little bit when coming into render. You can also use a spyglass, I’ve found… I think someone’s already said this, but ima go ahead and echo them.
