Guardians are special Units you can collect and improve, with Skills that will give boosts to your City and armies.
Guardians give you access to new PvE targets – Warlords. Warlord targets can be found in the "Warlords" tab of the Guardian window. They can also be sent alongside supporting Units to regular PvP and PvE battles, or stationed at your City to improve its Defense and economy.
Your Guardians can never die. However, if a Guardian loses a battle, they may be stunned for a certain period of time. Any Guardians you acquire will remain in your collection forever unless you decide to retire them.
You can begin playing with your Guardians by accessing the Guardian window via the button on the right hand side of the main City screen. You must be at least Level 40 to do this.
Getting Guardians
Once you've reached Level 40, you'll receive a series of quests. Once you've completed these quests you'll receive your first Guardians.
You can also get new Guardians by using Summoning Bonds. Summoning Bonds are used to summon a random Guardian of a specified rarity. There are 3 types of Summoning Bonds: Basic, Epic, and Holy.
- Basic Summoning Bonds allow you to summon a single random Grade I, II, or III Guardian.
- Epic Summoning Bonds allow you to summon a single random Grade II, III, or IV Guardian.
- Holy Summoning Bonds allow you to summon a single random Grade IV or V Guardian.
Emeralds
Emeralds are a new Premium Resource. You can use them to acquire Summoning Bonds, Guardian XP Boosts, and more. You can get Emeralds at the Bank and by upgrading Guardians to the maximum Level. There are also a variety of in-game events that offer Emeralds as a Reward.
