Glaverow Volcanic Zone 3* Guardians
Fire
Vrtra
Shape: Serpent
Skills:
Level 1: Hard Blow (physical+1)
Level 15: Weakness (attack-20%)
Level 30: Heavy Blow (physical+2)
Level 40: Defense Down (defend-20%)
Level 50: ?
Comments: Physical Attacker. It has 2 debuff skills which are rare for Guardians.
Chimera
Shape: Wolf
Skills:
Level 1: Burning Beat (fire+1)
Level 15: Heavy Blow (physical+2)
Level 30: Burning Strike (fire+2)
Level 40: Slow (agility-20%)
Level 50: ?
Comments: Elemental Attacker. Agility-20% will be useful.
Earth
Cemmunos
Shape: Humanoid
Skills:
Level 1: Greater Might (attack+20%)
Level 15: Hard Blow (physical+1)
Level 30: Heavy Blow (physical+2)
Level 40: Mind Blast (wisdom-20%)
Level 50: Double Impact (physical+3)
Comments: Strong physical attacker with a debuff skill. I don't think it needs anymore stone with Skills 1,4,5.
Lightning
Nue
Shape: Wolf
Skills:
Level 1: Thunder Bolt (lightning+1)
Level 15: Slow (agility-20%)
Level 30: Mind Blast (wisdom-20%)
Level 40: Defense Down (defense-20%)
Level 50: Thunder Strike (lightning+2)
Comments: The next popular debuffer guardian other than Slime as it can learn up to 3 Debuffer skills. I think it is possible that 2 is enough, wisdom-20% and agility-20%, for placing in front of an elemental attacker. Skills 2,3 and 4/5. If using 2 debuff skills, replace skill 5 with a lightning+3 to deal some damage.
Wind
Wendigo
Shape: Giant
Skills:
Level 1: Wind Cutter (wind+1)
Level 15: Haste (agility+10%)
Level 30: Wind Edge (wind+2)
Level 40: Greater Haste (agility+20%)
Level 50: Whirlwind (wind+3)
Comments: This is like Jinn but without the debuff skill. I will have it learn Skills 2,4 and 5 and be a really fast physical attacker.
Hanuman
Shape: Giant
Skills:
Level 1: Wind Cutter (wind+1)
Level 15: Greater Protect (defense+20%)
Level 30: ?
Level 40: ?
Level 50: ?
Comments: Not enough information but with a defense+20% skill so early, it could be a strong guardian.
Poison
Basilisk
Shape: Serpent
Skills:
Level 1: Poison Bubble (poison+1)
Level 15: Mind Blast (wisdom-20%)
Level 30: ?
Level 40: ?
Level 50: ?
Comments: Not enough information. It has a debuff skill which can be useful.
Mecha
Berserker
Shape: Giant
Skills:
Level 1: Slash (physical+1)
Level 15: Cross Slash (physical+2)
Level 30: Hard Slash (physical+3)
Level 40: Might (attack+10%)
Level 50: Protect (defend+10%)
Comments: Medium physical attacker as although it has physical+3, the buffs it gain is small. You also can't teach it any stronger buff skills. Use Skills 3,4 and 5.
Light
Kirin
Shape: Wolf
Skills:
Level 1: Heal (small HP gain)
Level 15: Holy Light (light+1)
Level 30: ?
Level 40: ?
Level 50: ?
Comments: Not enough information.
Unicorn
Shape: Wolf
Skills:
Level 1: Hard Blow (physical+1)
Level 15: Heal (small HP gain)
Level 30: Greater Might (attack+20%)
Level 40: Hard Slash (physical+3)
Level 50: Greater Heal (huge HP gain)
Comments: Strong physical attacker but one of the ability is wasted as you'll probably want to avoid the heal spells and use: Skill 1,3,4.
Darkness
Succubus
Shape: Humanoid
Skills:
Level 1: Mind Blast (wisdom-20%)
Level 15: Dark Pain (darkness+2)
Level 30: Cross Slash (physical+2)
Level 40: Energy Drain (MP drain)
Level 50: Life Drain (HP drain)
Comments: The debuff skill is useful but it has 2 slots wasted with drain spells. I will probably use Skills 1,2,3. A darkness+3 stone will be good as it combines well with wisdom-20%, replacing the darkness+2 skill.
1st Round Invitation 3* Guardians
Light
Mandragora
Shape: Floater
Skills:
Level 1: Holy Light (light+1)
Level 15: Cunning (wisdom+10%)
Level 30: Greater Haste (agility+20%)
Level 40: Greater Cunning (wisdom+20%)
Level 50: Shine Smite (light+2)
Comments: Strong and fast elemental attacker with skills 3,4 and 5. Replace light+2 with a light+3 for a stronger guardian.
Earth
Spriggan
Shape: Floater
Skills:
Level 1: Ice Needle (earth+1)
Level 15: Cunning (wisdom+10%)
Level 30: Ice Spike (earth+2)
Level 40: Greater Haste (agility+20%)
Level 50: Rock Bite (earth+3)
Comments: I have no idea why "ice" is involved with earth attacks but this is a strong elemental attacker. I think Earth+3 skill is rare and this is one of the few guardians that have it. Use Skills 2,4 and 5.
Darkness
Good King Moggle Mog XII
Shape: Humanoid
Skills:
Level 1: Protect (defense+10%)
Level 15: Darkness (darkness+1)
Level 30: Greater Cunning (wisdom+20%)
Level 40: Dark Pain (darkness+2)
Level 50: Greater Protect (defense+20%)
Comments: Strong elemental attacker with the rare wisdom buff for a 3* if you can add a darkness+3 stone to replace darkness+2. Use Skills 3,4,5.
In conclusion, the stronger ones from Glaverow Volcanic Zone and 1st Round Invitation, in my opinion, are Cemmunos, Nue, Wendigo, Berserker, Unicorn, Mandragora, Spriggan and Good King Moggle Mog XII. There are naturally stronger guardians in the Glaverow Volcanic Zone as it is harder to hunt there.
