Best Armor Augments and Armor Recommendations
Unlike Monster Hunter World, Guard Up now has 3 levels which might make it slightly confusing due to how its description is written. Basically, Guard Up still allows you to block normally unblockable moves, but the amount of damage you'll take differs based on the level. If an unblockable attack would normally deal 100 damage to you, having Lv 1 Guard Up will let you take 70 damage instead.
