Follow our comprehensive guide to defeat The Guardian boss in Lords of the Fallen (2014). Learn strategies, find loot, and overcome this challenging encounter.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start by moving to the campfire ahead, where six Infected are present. Three will ambush you; defeat them and then pick off the remaining Infected.
  2. 2
    Locate two sets of glowing symbols on the ground to the right of the campfire. Follow the trail of symbols leading into the darkness.
  3. 3
    Be cautious of 3-5 Infected in the darkness after the second symbol. Lock on and use your gauntlet to defeat them.
  4. 4
    Continue along the symbol path to find three chests. After looting the third chest, a Fire Beast and Fire Golems will attack from behind. Prioritize defeating the Fire Golems to make them explode, then focus on the Fire Beast, avoiding its burning attacks.
  5. 5
    Return to the campfire, now occupied by two Knights and a Tyrant. Kite the Knights while avoiding the Tyrant, and defeat them using your gauntlet and melee attacks.
  6. 6
    To find the Tyrant's Tyrant Heart, kill the Tyrant once to observe him regenerate. Follow the red light connecting him to the Tyrant Heart in the darkness beyond the campfire. Once found, retrieve the heart and then defeat the Tyrant.
  7. 7
    After clearing the fireplace area, a chest will appear containing an Attribute Point Shard and the Weapon (Sword - Tribute).
  8. 8
    From the campfire, follow the symbol path to the right. You will encounter a red cloud that transforms into a ring of fire. Eliminate a Spellcaster and two Shieldmen. Focus on the Spellcaster first due to its projectiles and life drain.
  9. 9
    After defeating them, loot the chest that appears for a Magic Energy Shard and the Weapon (Hammer - Fly).
  10. 10
    Once all looting is complete, return to the 'real' world.
  11. 11
    Exit back to where The Guardian was killed. Use your gauntlet on the glyph blocking the passage out of the area. Loot the chest behind it for Armour (Chest and Head - Faith).
  12. 12
    Enter the door ahead to proceed to the Chamber of Lies.
