Elite Guardians

Elite Guardians are powerful creatures that can only be defeated by the strongest clones. Their stats are significantly higher than those of standard monsters, and they can only be encountered in the depths of Arcadia. There is one Elite Guardian per destination.

General Rules

Any Elite Guardians follow the following rules:

• For each planet/moon, Elite guardians are encountered in the depths of the last cave after the level required to complete the mission.

• Clones can only encounter Elite Guardians on 200 level duration missions.

• When the clone reaches level 101 of its mission, the guardian start popping with a 0.5% chance of encountering it.

• This probability increases by 0.5% for every additional level (1% at level 102, 1.5% at level 103, and so on, until reaching 50% at level 200).

• If the clone manages to defeat the guardian during its mission, the guardian will not appear again within that run.

• If the clone encounters the guardian and loses, it hides and recovers. However, the clone can encounter the guardian once again at any time according to the probabilities mentioned above.

• Killing an Elite Guardian grants HIGH amount of EXP and drop a unique Ultimate material of their own.

For instance : How to encounter Queen Tarantula

1) Start a new mission.

Start a new mission to chase a guardian.

2) Select the New Terra planet then select the last mine called Apertian Infinite mine and jump into the prepare step. Note : You will see the Guardian monster of New terra appearing into the boss list. In that case, the guardian is called the Queen Tarantula. This boss also knows as the planet's Guardian can only be found from a certain depth (here 400) and after completing 100+ level in a row. Guardians always appear exclusively in the last planet's mine and act as as kind of planet boss.

Select Apertian Infinite mine and prepare to kill the Queen Tarantula guardian.

3) After preparing your clone with the desired equipment, you have to select to 200 or 500 duration and click on Start mission.

Note : Why ? Because Guardians only start to appears after completing 100+ level in a row. Therefore you can't encounter them by using mission duration 1,5,10,50 and 100.

Select a 200 level duration mission to encounter the guardian.

4) Now the tricky part. To start encountering the guardian, you have to make sure you select a "enter level" high enough. For example, entering at level 300 works good. Guardian will get a chance to pop up as soon as you have completed your first 100 level of your 200 level mission (300 + 100 = 400). Level mission 101 (so depth 401) will have 0.5% of encountering it, level mission 102 : 1%, ..., level mission 200 will have 50%. Note :

• You will always have 0% of encountering it until you have completed your first 100 level of your mission.

• If you enter level at level 10 for example, you would have never encounter it because guardian only appears from completion mine depth which is 400 on Apertian Infinite mine (mission depth 10 + 200 lvl mission = 210 which is less than 400).

• You could have start enter at 201 minimum to encounter Queen Tarantura but this is not viable as 201 + 200 = 400 which mean you would have a chance encountering it from the last level of your 200 level mission only with a 0.5% encountering chance. That's why entering deeper like 300+ is better.

Select the proper level entry to successfully encounter the Queen Tarantula elite guardian.

5) I'm now level 401, i started my 200 mission duration at level 300. Elite guardian encountering chance start finally to increase by 0.5% every level i complete. From now on, the encountering chance will keep increasing until i meet the guardian and kill it.

Note : When you kill the guardian you can't encounter it anymore during your mission. You will have to start a new 200 or 500 level mission. Loosing a guardian fight doesn't affect the encountering chance.

Wait for the guardian to pop up from after meeting the 2 guardian requirements : 1) Guardian start popping from depth 400 on Apertian Infinite mine, 2) Guardian encountering chance start to increase only from level 101 of my 200 or 500 level mission.
