Guardian
ๅฎ่ญท่ ยท Guardian โ An iron wall that holds back the world with a single shield
A combat class completely specialized in defense and party protection. While low on attack power, their unmatched defense and threat-generation ability allows them to absorb any enemy attack and shield their allies. Shield counters and guard-parries โ converting defense into offense โ are their signature techniques.
Origin
A concept derived from the frontline shield-bearers of the Spartan phalanx formation, combined with the fantasy party system. The archetype of the Tanker role.
Features
- Taunt skills to concentrate enemy attacks on themselves
- Shield Counter: a counter-attack immediately after blocking an enemy strike
- Provides defensive buffs to the entire party
- Complete immunity or high resistance to status ailments
Usage
The party's lifeline. An essential role to the point where some bosses are considered unbeatable without a guardian.
Weakness
In solo combat, insufficient attack power can leave them unable to finish off enemies, stuck in a perpetual stalemate.
