Guardian Tales guide: Tips, tricks, and cheats
Now that you understand the basics, let’s take a look at a few more specific tips, tricks, and cheats to help you master Guardian Tales:
- Prepare for puzzles: you can’t beat everything with your sword alone. If it’s not clear how to progress, give your brain a workout instead and see if there are any useful items lying around that you can use to progress. Wood is flammable, for example
- Dodge: this is particularly important when fighting bosses. These gigantic monsters will unleash massive attacks that are telegraphed with a big red line or circle. If you see this, use your dash ability to get out of there
- Pick the best heroes for the task: while our Guardian Tales tier list can help you decide the best overall heroes, it’s not the full picture. Sometimes you will need an elemental advantage to progress. If you’re struggling, take a look at the enemy elements you may face during battle and swap to heroes with an element that’s strong against them
- Upgrade: if you’re still struggling, it’s time to upgrade. Equip your heroes with the best equipment, level them up, and upgrade everything to help give you every advantage during the battles ahead
