The Profaned Guardians are a group of post-Moon Lord bosses fought in The Profaned Garden, consisting of the Guardian Commander, Guardian Defender, and Guardian Healer. All three Guardians must be defeated to win the fight. They are required for progression as they drop the Profaned Core, used to summon Providence, the Profaned Goddess.

Spawn

The Profaned Guardians do not spawn on their own, and require the player to summon them by using a Profaned Shard while standing on the cliff area at the Profaned Garden's entrance.

Behavior

When summoned, the Profaned Guardians use a unique spawn animation.

• The camera pans to the Crystal Gate across the player.
• The Guardians materialize for a few seconds, after which triggers a flash of light as a Holy Shield is summoned to protect the Guardians.
• After summoning the Guardians and the Shield, the camera pans back to the player.

Upon the guardians spawning they are protected by a holy shield. During this phase pilars of holy fire will spawn from the holy shield and advance towards the cliff where the guardians were spawned before dissipating. These pilars have holes that the player has to fly through in order to avoid them. During this phase the guardian commander will occasionally start aiming at the player with a laser before after a few seconds firing the laser. This phase ends when the holy shield is destroyed.

• Leaving the profaned gardens at any point during the introductory or first phase will despawn the guardians.

Trivia

• In Phase 3, the sun attack is inspired by an attack from Dogma, from The Binding of Isaac: Repentance. The SFX during this attack are the same used in the Dogma fight.
