What Is Unyielding Guard in Aion 2?
Unyielding Guard is a Guarder-type weapon in Aion 2. It is a Legend-grade item and can be used by all classes, which already makes it different from many class-restricted weapons in the game.
In general, guarders are defensive off-hand weapons. Most players use them to improve survivability rather than raw damage. Unyielding Guard fits that role very clearly. It does not provide attack stats, but instead focuses on accuracy, critical hit, and overall utility.
The item has an Item Level of 59, which places it in the mid-to-late game range. Most players encounter items like this once they are already spending a lot of time in open-world content and higher-level zones.
Why Do Players Care About Unyielding Guard?
Most players care about Unyielding Guard for three main reasons:
It is Legend quality
It is usable by all classes
It comes from world drops, not a fixed dungeon or quest
In practice, this means it is both flexible and unpredictable. You cannot simply farm one boss and expect it to drop. Instead, players usually get it while doing general world activities.
Another reason players pay attention to this item is its gold value. If sold, it can fetch up to 24,030 gold, which is a meaningful amount for most players at this stage of the game.
How Do You Get Unyielding Guard?
Is It a Dungeon Drop?
No. Unyielding Guard is a world drop.
This means it can drop from enemies in the open world rather than from a specific dungeon, raid, or boss. In general, world drops are tied to enemy level and region rather than a single named source.
Most players obtain items like this while:
Grinding mobs for experience
Farming materials
Completing open-world objectives
Roaming high-level zones
At the moment, there are no confirmed details about which exact enemies or regions have the highest drop chance. This information is expected to be updated later.
What Does “World Drop” Mean in Practice?
In practice, “world drop” usually means:
There is no guaranteed method to farm it
Drop rates are generally low
Time spent killing enemies matters more than specific tactics
Most players who get Unyielding Guard are not actively targeting it. Instead, they are farming something else and happen to get lucky.
Because of this, some players prefer to sell it rather than use it, especially if their current build does not benefit much from a guarder.
Can You Craft Unyielding Guard?
No. There are currently no crafting options for Unyielding Guard.
This means:
You cannot gather materials to make it
You cannot rely on professions to obtain it
You must either loot it or get it through trade
In general, Legend-grade world-drop items are often not craftable, at least early in a game’s lifecycle. This keeps them relatively rare and gives value to open-world farming.
What Are the Stats of Unyielding Guard?
Here is a breakdown of the known stats:
Item Level: 59
Weapon Type: Guarder
Attack: None
Accuracy: +50
Critical Hit: +50
Block: (not specified)
PvE Damage Boost: (not specified)
Manastone Slots: 3
What Do These Stats Mean for Real Gameplay?
Unyielding Guard does not increase your attack. Most players should not expect a damage boost just by equipping it.
Instead, it provides:
Accuracy, which helps your skills and attacks land more reliably
Critical Hit, which improves damage consistency over time
Manastone flexibility, thanks to 3 slots
In general, this makes it more useful for sustained combat rather than burst damage.
Who Should Use Unyielding Guard?
Is It Good for DPS Classes?
For DPS classes, Unyielding Guard is situational.
Most DPS players prefer off-hand options that directly increase damage. However, some builds benefit from extra accuracy and crit, especially in PvE content where enemies have higher evasion or defense.
In general, DPS players use this guarder when:
Accuracy is a problem
Survivability matters more than burst damage
They are doing long PvE fights
Is It Better for Tanks or Defensive Builds?
Yes, usually.
Guarders are more commonly used by tank-oriented or defensive builds. While the block and PvE damage boost stats are not clearly listed yet, the overall nature of the item fits defensive playstyles.
Most tank players value:
Stable stats
Manastone flexibility
Consistent performance in PvE
Unyielding Guard fits these needs reasonably well.
How Do Most Players Use the Manastone Slots?
The three manastone slots are one of the most important parts of this item.
In general, players use these slots to:
Increase HP
Add more accuracy
Improve defensive stats
Some players also experiment with critical hit stones to balance their build. Because the base item already provides crit, most players adjust based on what they are lacking elsewhere.
Is Unyielding Guard Worth Selling?
This depends on your situation.
At a value of up to 24,030 gold, selling it can be a smart choice if:
You already have a better guarder
Your class does not benefit much from it
You need gold for upgrades or skills
Most players who sell it do so because they found it by chance and do not want to rebuild their gear around it.
Is It Worth Keeping for the Long Term?
In general, Unyielding Guard is a solid mid-to-late game item, not an endgame-defining one.
It is useful, flexible, and reliable, but most players eventually replace it with more specialized or higher-level equipment.
That said, it is usually worth keeping if:
You do a lot of PvE content
You value consistency over peak damage
You want a guarder that works across different builds
