In the present day, [[Link#Breath of the Wild|Link]] awakens from the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], with the motive to stop Ganon and save Hyrule. Guardians are littered all around the [[Great Plateau]], most of which are non-functioning, however the rouge machine is. As Link traverses the land of Hyrule, he sees many Guardians, active and inactive, scattered everywhere. They are more prominent the closer he gets to [[Hyrule Castle (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Castle]], being stronger than ever and with a blood lust for Link. | In the present day, [[Link#Breath of the Wild|Link]] awakens from the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], with the motive to stop Ganon and save Hyrule.

*Through the use of [[Breath of the Wild Shields|shields]] and the [[Perfect Guard]] move, Guardians can effectively be defeated without ever using melee weapons. [[Decayed Guardian]]s may be defeated with a single Perfect Guard, while other Guardians may take 3-4 hits. | *Through the use of [[Breath of the Wild Shields|shields]] and the [[Perfect Guard]] move, Guardians can effectively be defeated without ever using melee weapons.

*In general, once Guardians shoot their beams and hit Link, they'll shoot an extra 2-3 shots immediately afterwards. These extra shots may not damage Link once the first one hits, but will prolong his stunned status. If multiple guardians shoot at Link, only the first hit will produce damage. | |||
*If attacked in surprise, Guardians may start making wanton shots of their beams without aiming. Sometimes, after the aforementioned surprise attack, Link's melee strikes trigger the beam shots. | |||
*There are numerous empty husks of deactivated [[Guardian Stalker]]s scattered all over Hyrule, but there are no husks of [[Guardian Skywatcher|Skywatchers]] or [[Guardian Turret|Turrets]] in the whole game. | *There are numerous empty husks of deactivated [[Guardian Stalker]]s scattered all over Hyrule, but there are no husks of [[Guardian Skywatcher|Skywatchers]] or [[Guardian Turret|Turrets]] in the whole game. | ||
*In [[Master Mode]], Guardians may delay their beam attacks, making Link miss the timing of the Perfect Guard. Also, due to this mode's enemy health recovery, it may take more Perfect Guards to defeat said Guardians. | *In [[Master Mode]], Guardians may delay their beam attacks, making Link miss the timing of the Perfect Guard.

*In the 2014 E3 trailer, the [[Guardian Stalker]] that is attacking Link is colored with orange streaks instead of magenta. It's not until later that the magenta coloration was introduced for attacking guardians in the overworld, as this indicates that they're blighted with [[Malice]]. | |||
