[[File:Guardian's ward detail.png|left|100px]]The '''Guardian's ward''' is an item dropped by monsters in [[Daemonheim]]. It surpasses the stats of the [[Protector's ward]]. It seems to only be available on the abandoned, furnished, occult, and warped floors as it is only dropped by [[Spiritual guardian]]s.

It requires a Defence level of 94 to equip. The only notable feature of this shield is the +44 magic defence bonus it provides, making it a good shield to use against bosses and magic-based monsters such as [[forgotten mage|forgotten mage.]] Aside from the magic defence bonus, its stab and crush defence are similar to a [[Gorgonite kiteshield]], although it has much lower ranged and slash defence.

When appearance is compared to the [[Protector's ward]], it seems very similar. The only differences are the brighter, more organic colour scheme, elaborate design, and the open eye in the centre, as opposed to what appears to be a "sewn shut" eye in the centre of the Protector's ward.

==Trivia==

*During the first few weeks of the release there was a typo in the knowledge base saying all of the item's defence stats were offensive, when really the Guardian's Ward gives nothing to attack bonuses.
*This item has the highest magic defence bonus for a shield in the entire game.
*This is said to be the dungeoneering equivalent of a [[Spectral Spirit Shield]], notably due to its high magic and crush defence.
