Upgrade your army with the ultimate unit in Minecraft Legends. Before taking on the generals of the Piglin Army, you can summon three permanent allies that add exponential power to any engagement. There are three ‘Super Units’ to unlock in the game, and you’ll have to find them in the overworld. Once you complete the Night Beacon quest, these optional units can be interacted with. You’ll just need a lot of gold to get them. Below, we’ll explain how to unlock the ability to summon these units, and how to assemble them so they join your war band.
Gold is a rare resource required to revive the First Golems. To get gold, you’ll need to raid Piglin Outposts. Rarely, these outposts will have a Piglin Chest. These locked chests often contain treasuries of gold, and destroying Piglin bases will reward you with a gold bounty. To unlock Piglin Chests, hunt overworld Piglins until one randomly drops the Piglin Key. You only need one, so after getting the key, you’ll be able to open every chest in the world. Very handy for grinding out the 100 Gold required for each golem.

First Golems are incredibly powerful permanent units that can be unlocked with Gold and other resources. These ultimate units are only available after completing the Night Beacon quest.
After interacting with a ‘First’ Golem site, return to the Well of Fate and construct Improvement: Wake the Firsts. This costs 100 Stone and 100 Prismarine. Build the upgrade, then you can interact with the First Golems on the map. It costs Gold to wake them. Each First Golem has a different powerful ability.
NOTE: All maps are randomly generated, so First Golems may appear almost anywhere on the map. Search for a “?” mark on the map — I recommend doing this early and quickly locating all four Golems. Getting all four makes future battles much, much easier.
- First of Oak: Badlands Region
- Ranged Giant Golem. This giant Plank Golem is extremely strong with a powerful ranged attack.
- First of Stone: Meadow Region
- Melee Giant Golem. This massive Stone Golem is extremely tough and can tank damage while smashing buildings by throwing giant boulders.
- First of Diorite: Jagged Peaks Region
- Support Giant Golem. Summons mobs to help fight in battle so you can overwhelm your enemy with numbers.
- First of Brick: Dry Savannah Region
- The First of Brick is an extremely tough golem that can raise green protective shields to block projectiles against you or your army.
First Golems are permanent allies. If you lose track of them, they will always appear on your world map. Return to them and call them to your side. They’ll also rejoin you when you fast-travel to new locations. First Golems do not count toward your total golem count.
