Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures - PC/Guardian
From WikiCheats
Contents |
Description
| Guardians are the most heavily armored and well-drilled soldiers in all of Hyboria. Capable of withstanding punishment like no other, they also have an array of deadly attacks that deal devestating damage. There is no more imposing sight in battle than a phalanx of Guardians in full plate armor, bearing sword and shield or ranked behind an impenetrable wall of pikes.
Guardians are the sturdiest of all the soldiers. Their strength lies in their ability to mitigate damage with their heavy armor and shield. They do not use magic, but focus on fighting with sword and shield or wielding pole arms capable of sweeping through ranks of enemies. In addition to their daunting defenses, they are renowned for their devestating charges, capable of ripping through enemy lines and slaughtering opponents. |
