Do undead and constructs heal naturally?


Rules Questions


What the title says. If you damage an undead creature or a construct like a golem and just leave it alone for a couple of days, will it have regained HP if no one used any special means to heal them, like negative energy in the undead's case?


Construct Traits wrote:
Cannot heal damage on its own, but often can be repaired via exposure to a certain kind of effect (see the creature's description for details) or through the use of the Craft Construct feat. Constructs can also be healed through spells such as make whole. A construct with the fast healing special quality still benefits from that quality.
Undead Traits wrote:
Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score, although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature's Intelligence score.

Barring a special ability, most constructs and undead will not naturally heal hit points as a resting creature would.


Nope. Creatures without a con score don't heal naturally.

Actually, The Elusive Jackalope copied and pasted straight from the bestiary. Not saying that concerro is wrong simply because Paizo changes the rules ALL OF THE TIME (making things hard for questions like this) but here is the page for you to check out yourself.
