Sacred 2:Devout Guardian

Introduction: The Devout Guardian

The Temple Guardian is a cyborg and as such, a deadly, efficient and unemotional war machine. Once, he had been created to protect the Great Machine; now, he is able to inflict severe physical damage to his opponents by using T-Energy purposefully. He boasts features that no other character possesses. The Temple Guardian is very strong in close combat.

A portion of physical damage is converted to the damage source, which the opponent has least resistance to.

Bonuses and Penalties

Like all special mounts, this Mobiculum gives a large bonus to the rider's hitpoints and defense at the cost of increasing the regeneration penalty of combat arts.

However, this aspect mount gives a special bonus which offsets the regeneration penalty to Devout Guardian. Therefore, the Devout Guardian will desire this Mobiculum. Combined with the Riding skill, regeneration times for this aspect will eventually be lower when mounted than on foot!

Devout Guardian Set: Combat Modules CC10

Combat Modules CC10 is a set specially focused on the Devout Guardian aspect, giving bonuses to all five combat art levels and their regeneration times. This dark, fierce-looking armor set provides almost entirely offensive bonuses to boost the Temple Guardian's melee powers.
