Guardian Scout

are enemies in.

Characteristics
Guardian Scouts are smaller variants of Guardian Stalkers that can be found within Ancient Shrines and Divine Beasts. They come in four different forms. Depending on the form, these can be equipped with different weapons of the BotW: equipment archetype. They can also use their laser to repeatedly burn the ground surrounding them, sending Link back if struck. However, this creates an updraft that allows Link to use the Paraglider to reach them. Additionally, when near death, they will charge a stronger laser attack that cannot be interrupted. Guardian Scouts are susceptible to elemental attacks, becoming stunned when electrified, catching on fire when exposed to it and freezing entirely when attacked with ice.
