In the creator ruins (the past) I've convinced the slaves to introduce a
flaw in the design, but as my character is a monk fighting unarmed, I am not
sure which flaw to pick. Obvious would be fire or cold, and have gloves that
deliver this, but my only gloves are 'electrical', so the question is, can
my fists be categorized as blunt, would I be able to hurt the golem if it
wasn't immune to blunt attack ?

TIA,

I think so, yes.

When I did this, I had found a Club of Smiting, a club that, on hit,
performed Slay Construct. I made them vulnerable to blunt attacks and
then two or three hits with the weapon and they were gone. That was
fun...:-)

Thanks for the answer - I decided to try it out instead of chickening around
on usenet, and sure enough; my fists seem to be a blunt weapon.

Now if I only had one of those....

I dont understand this. If its unarmed, how can u use a weapon,
this doesnt make sense. Or does a specific weapon doesnt count
as weapon ??

I think you've somehow confused the two posts. The original poster asked if
his unarmed attack was considering blunt so that he could fight golems. The
second poster thought they were, and then as an aside shared an anecdote
about how he had fought the golems with a Club of Smiting. See, that's why
he bracketed the story with <aside>. ;-)
