The latter two rooms' Golems can be activated by Samus, as they possess sufficient residual energy to perform small, simple tasks. The two that are featured in the Airdock are nonfunctional. One was damaged beyond repair and trapped in a stone mass, while the other's sculpting process was halted 328.9 years before. There is also a Colossal War Golem as big as a small mountain located in Colossus Vista, though its construction must be completed before it can be activated. The Grand Court Golem lies on the floor. Samus initially cannot activate it, since an advanced visor is required to interface with the mechanism. If she returns to the room after acquiring the X-Ray Visor from the Pirate Homeworld, she can activate the panel. The Golem will then stand up and reveal a pool of liquid Phazon Samus can use to replenish her energy, as well as several Phaazoids and a red variant. After this, it will automatically shut down, unable to be moved again. The Hidden Court Golem is constrained by four Skkale vines and blocks Samus' path to the Hangar Bay. After Samus destroys each of the vines, the Golem is freed and Samus can use a Bomb Slot below its feet to activate it. Samus then jumps out of the Slot as the Golem lifts the gear-shaped object containing the Slot out of the ground, and inserts it into a hole in the wall behind it, exposing a Half-pipe. The Golem then stands to the side and goes permanently offline. It is unknown how effective these technology-based War Golems were against the magic-using Primal War Bands. However, due to the exhaustion of the rare resources needed to sustain the machines, the Lords of Science lost their only means of attack and defense as the mechanical Mogenars began shutting down. Following the death of his fellow Lords, the last Lord of Science took the Chozo's recommendation of balancing the supernatural Primal Traditions with science. He built unique Golems capable of magic attacks, yet they were powered by the more abundant Fuel Gel. They were strictly used as bodyguards for their creator, as the last lord wished to avoid turning them into war machines similar to their predecessors. Unfortunately, an accident caused his personal supply of Fuel Gel to detonate, rendering his Golems incapable of protecting him against the Primals. Centuries later, one of these unique Mogenars was somehow moved to the Bryyo Leviathan Seed to serve as the guardian of the latter's Phazon Core. This Mogenar utilizes its arcane arts and physical attacks against Samus in their battle, all energized by Phazon. Samus is required to destroy four energy orbs contained within its body in order to destroy it.
