This takes 1 minute. Once wound, it remains operational for 72 days, after which time it becomes unaware of its surroundings and can't act until it's wound again. The amalgam can enter standby mode as a 3-action activity. Its operational time doesn't decrease in standby, but it can sense its surroundings (with a –2 penalty to Perception). It can't act, with one exception: When it perceives a creature, it can exit standby as a reaction (rolling initiative if appropriate). A creature can attempt a DC 31 [Thievery](/Skills.aspx?ID=17) check to [Disable a Device](/Actions.aspx?ID=69) to wind the clockwork down. For each success, the clockwork loses 1 hour of operational time. This can be done even if the clockwork is in standby mode. **Recalibrate** The clockwork amalgam can recalibrate its internal structure to shed damaged components and replace them with new ones, restoring 125 HP to the construct. Each time it uses this ability, the clockwork amalgam permanently deactivates one of its five melee attacks as the components from that arm reassemble within the core of the machine.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n**Speed** 30 feet\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n\r\nblade +38 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [reach 10 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 4d12+18 slashing\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n\r\nblowtorch +38 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [reach 10 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 10d6 fire\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n\r\nclaw +38 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [reach 10 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 4d8+18 slashing plus [Push](/MonsterAbilities.aspx?ID=25)\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n\r\nhose +38 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [reach 15 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 4d8+18 bludgeoning plus [Grab](/MonsterAbilities.aspx?ID=18)\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n\r\nstamper +38 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [reach 10 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 4d8+18 bludgeoning plus [Knockdown](/MonsterAbilities.aspx?ID=20)\r\n\r\n**Ranged**\r\n\r\nspike +35 ([Magical](/Traits.aspx?ID=103), [range increment 40 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=248)),\r\n**Damage** 4d12+8 piercing\n\n**Whirring Doom** **Frequency** once per round; **Effect** The clockwork amalgam becomes a blur of spinning weaponry.

The amalgam's movement Speed is halved until the end of its next turn. Fell Amalgams Some clockwork amalgams become possessed by fell spirits or fiendish influences. Gifted with a spark of sentience, these “fell amalgams” purposely seek out other clockwork creations to destroy, collecting their parts and incorporating them into the fell amalgams' own ever-growing clockwork bodies. Unlike with typical clockworks, a fell amalgam's intricate clockwork brain can hatch cunning schemes and far-reaching plans. ",
