Sacred 2:Source Warden

Introduction: The Source Warden

The Temple Guardian was once part of the Great Machine and can still use T-Energy as a weapon. With it he can change the attributes of opponents and even those of his environment. T-Energy grants the Temple Guardian special abilities in order to weaken or transform his opponents. He is able to surround himself with an energy field and he can use extensive heat or cold to weaken his opponents.

Bonuses and Penalties

Like all special mounts, this Mobiculum gives a large bonus to the rider's hitpoints and defense at the cost of increasing the regeneration penalty of combat arts.

However, this aspect mount gives a special bonus which offsets the regeneration penalty to Source Warden. Therefore, a Temple Guardian specializing as a Source Warden will desire this Mobiculum. Combined with the Riding skill, regeneration times for this aspect will eventually be lower when mounted than on foot!

Source Warden Set: T-Energy Modules

The T-Energy Modules is a set specially focused on the Source Warden aspect, giving bonuses to all five combat art levels and their regeneration times. This glowing blue armor is heavily defensive and boosts the Temple Guardian's spellcasting power.
