Talk:Guardian

Uhh this is a crazy redirect, Why was Dangoro chosen as the target page? Well I was going to merely use it to redirect as a search term referring to the PH Big Plays, but if there's a good reason it should be a disambig page that would be much better. 00:28, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, this should be a disambig page. Jeangabin 06:59, 15 August 2010 (EDT)
 * According to IGN, these are specifically referred to as Silent Realm Guardians. http://uk.ign.com/wikis/the-legend-of-zelda-skyward-sword/Silent_Realm_Guardians Fyrisvellir 17:36, 6 November 2011 (EST)
 * You planning on moving it? Technickal 09:54, 13 November 2011 (EST)
 * Honestly I think we should do it to avoid confusion. Put all of the "Guardian" names on a disambiguation page, and tada a tidy wiki. :) Steahl 10:00, 13 November 2011 (EST)
 * Yeah, I agree! ;D Anyone else support this move? Technickal 18:30, 13 November 2011 (EST)
 * Obviously I do, but I'm not sure I can yet move pages. :P Fyrisvellir 18:40, 13 November 2011 (EST)
 * Yeah... I know I can't. Usually that's a sysop ability. Steahl 18:59, 13 November 2011 (EST)


 * I think it would be best if we waited until the game was released to move this page. There's no guarantee that IGN is using the canonical name. In fact, according to the text dump of the demo, they aren't called "Guardians" at all, rather "Earth Watchers" and "Sky Watchers". 08:38, 14 November 2011 (EST)

Then why was Zols in this game merged with ChuChu and Moblins with Big Blins? Technickal 17:01, 15 November 2011 (EST)


 * -_-, There are no Zol in Skyward Sword. The devs said they are ChuChus. Steahl 17:47, 15 November 2011 (EST)

Three types
Given that there appear to be three different type of Guardians, and each of them has its own behavior and appearance that seems to be very heavily based on other enemies in the series (Poes, Darknuts and um... Garos I suppose?) does each type have its own name? They're all pretty different. Does anyone have the guide yet who can check whether they are named in there? Or maybe they're named in the game somewhere. Fizzle 17:49, 25 November 2011 (EST)


 * There are two types: the ones that look like Minotaurs with giant maces, and the ones that fly around with two blades. The "third" type you're thinking of are Watchers. Unfortunately, the Guardian types aren't differentiated in the game. 05:05, 2 December 2011 (EST)
 * Fi's description says there are Earth Watches who hover in one spot, and others that fly around. Both of those look like Poes, and have lanterns (it's easiest to see both kinds in the Skyloft Silent Realm). The "Sage" guys are Guardians, as they don't react until your flower is depleted, and eject you if they touch you.KrytenKoro 03:20, 4 December 2011 (EST)
 * Seriously, the sage guys are Guardians, not Watchers. The two types of Watcher mentioned by Fi are the ones that follow a predetermined path, and the ones that stay still but chase after you if you enter the light of their lantern. Both of these look like Poes.KrytenKoro 04:37, 4 December 2011 (EST)

I'm not sure what you're arguing for. Let me clarify everything: Hopefully that clears things up. 04:56, 4 December 2011 (EST)
 * Guardians - Guys with weapons. Affected by Sacred Tears. There are 2 types:
 * Guys with the face of a bull. Run after you with a giant mace
 * Guys that hover with two blades
 * Watchers - Guys with lanterns. NOT affected by sacred tears. There are 2 types:
 * Guys that float and follow predetermined paths
 * Guys that stay in one place near the ground. If you approach them, they start chasing you until you get into their light.
 * ....ohhh. Looking at the render in the guide and seeing its face, I just realized the the "Sage" guys are the flying ones. Nevermind, I was accidentally interpreting the one guy as two.KrytenKoro 05:02, 4 December 2011 (EST)
