Other

Standard Tactics: The Guardian will charge and fire its laser beam and use its spikes to damage those who challenge it in close quarters.

Weaknesses: Is very vulnerable on land and loses any mobility it had previously. Its laser projectile is dependent on the Gaurdian's vision, thus hiding behind solid surfaces disengages the laser entirely)
