How to Use Guardian

Heal Faster While Securing Objectives

The Guardian perk lets you regenerate health much faster while securing objectives and revive downed allies more quickly. This is the perfect perk for players who actually go for the game objectives and help out the team.

Pair it with the Flak Jacket perk to become a tank when holding down and defending objectives.

How to Unlock Guardian

Unlocked at Level 50

The Guardian Perk can be unlocked by reaching Level 50. You'll be able to add or swap them out once you unlock Loadouts at Account Level 4. You can earn XP to level up by playing matches in Multiplayer or Zombies.

The XP gained scales with your performance during the match. Gain more XP per match by using a Double XP token.
