The Guardian Scout III is the opponent in the Modest Test of Strength shrines. It fights with two Guardian weapons at once, so it attacks faster and from more angles than the Scout II. Patience, dodges and good timing beat it.

Behavior

It alternates between quick weapon combos and long-range laser bursts. After a combo it pauses for a moment, which is your opening.

How to beat it

Learn its rhythm

Keep your distance and watch for the combo to start. Dodge sideways or backward and wait for the final swing.

Punish the pause

Step in as soon as the swing ends and hit it with your strongest combo, or use a flurry rush after a perfect dodge.

Reflect the beam

When it backs away to fire its laser, hold your shield up and parry at the last moment to send the beam back for large damage.

Drops

  • Ancient Screw, Ancient Spring, Ancient Gear, Ancient Shaft and Ancient Core
  • Its Guardian weapons (tier set by difficulty scaling)
