Base profile values before floor scaling. The campaign increases enemy health and attack damage by stage.
# ORIGIN RECORD
The deepest mapped guardian pulses in step with the Rift Shard signal. The expedition cannot establish whether it is a central intelligence, an interface grown around the shaft, or a convincing decoy.
# BEHAVIOUR
Its base profile combines a large hull, 20% damage reduction and recurring Tank reinforcements. It is the campaign’s final known encounter; echoes beyond it remain outside the confirmed map.
# FIELD TACTICS
Protect the carrier before committing to a long damage race. Keep one mount for Tanks when they threaten the lift, then return all available fire to the Heart. Use armour-piercing upgrades, Guard on heavy hits and Overdrive during its recovery window.
