The Guardian attunement is designed for close-quarters combat, with a focus on defense. Guardians are known for using their shroud offensively, as well as having much finer control over it than most other attunements. The guardian attunement grants the attuned access to enhancement mana and life mana, along with their combination: protection mana^[1], although many guardians disregard life mana, choosing to focus nearly entirely on enhancement mana^[2]. At citrine, it grants access to stone mana. The guardian attunement is most commonly found in the Serpent Spire in Valia^[1].

Attunement Features

Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.

Shroud Manipulation

Guardians gain access to their shroud immediately upon gaining their attunement, rather than at carnelian like most other attunements. Additionally, they are able to manipulate their shroud immediately upon gaining it, and with greater ease than other attuned^[3].
