Intro: A Guardian's Shield Swipe

Your trainer wants you to use your new skills to prove that you are ready to face the many dangers that exist in the world.

Description
Stage 1
Stage 2

'Even in this refuge there are threats that we must confront. You will need to know how to defend yourself and push back these threats.

'If you wish to survive, you must learn skills from others, like myself. We can guide you through your training and help you to become stronger.

'Learn the skill Shield Swipe from me and show me that my teaching has given you mastery by striking the practice dummy nearby.'

HINT:

Guardians rely on Reactive Skills to deal damage and generate Threat against their enemies. Shield Swipe requires that the Guardian Block an incoming enemy attack before they can use the skill. Head over to the Training-Dummies to the north of the trainer and attack it until you successfully block one of their attacks. If you're having trouble getting a block, try using Guardian's Ward to increase your chances of blocking enemy attacks. Once you have blocked an attack you will be able to use your Shield Swipe skill. Strike the Targeting Dummy with Shield Swipe.

You should speak with the trainer again and learn the skill Shield Swipe. Use your new skill on the training-dummy nearby.

NOTE: Use the trainer and select Train Guardian Skills to open the skill selection panel. Left-click on a skill to highlight it and then left-click the Train button at the bottom of the skill selection panel -- or double-click the skill -- and you will successfully purchase the skill.
