"Purity of form. Purity of essence. Prove your strength."

- Xel'naga Construct^(src)

Xel'naga constructs (a.k.a. xel'naga sentinels) are NPC units in StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void.

Overview

"An ancient creation brought to life by xel'naga technology. Built to test the strength of aspiring gods."

- Character description^(src)

Several xel'naga constructs were left at Ulnar to guard the temple leading to the xel'naga themselves. The intent was that only when two races possessing purity of essence and purity of form worked together, could the constructs be defeated. Defeating the constructs rewarded keys to open the doors of the temple. Kerrigan and Artanis fought through several on their way to awaken the xel'naga in Ulnar.

When Amon's forces attempted to seal the void portal in Ulnar, they corrupted a xel'naga construct and fielded it to support their forces. Grand Preserver Rohana requested that the allied commander destroy the construct and end the sacrilege of Amon's forces.

Game Unit

The xel'naga constructs are powerful enemies with a lot of HP and strong normal attacks. They have two abilities: in one, they target an area and then unleash an energy blast at that location, dealing damage, and release a shockwave around themselves, knocking enemies back and dealing damage. Both abilities spawn xel'naga charged crystals to aid the construct in battle.

In Co-op Missions, a xel'naga construct appears in the mission Lock & Load. It has 10,000 HP but is otherwise identical to the construct in the campaign. Destroying it as a bonus objective awards additional exp.
