The Royal Guards

"Abysmal darkness fills the castle, as they awaken to protect their king . . ."

The Royal Guards are only encountered during Wave 29 of the survival gamemode (on the Desertia map) .These guards consist of Eagle, Hawk, Vulture, and Raven. Each of these guards have their own weaknesses and abilities, which helps the player to prepare for the boss of that map, Duck. Each of the royal guards were suits of armor brought to life by "Him". It's best to fight each of the royal guards individually which is difficult by itself. Below are descriptions of each of the royal guards. Just note that all of the bosses start at the start of the round.

 Eagle 

Eagle uses a broadsword as his weapon, and can use a shield to block anything shot at him. His armor is highly decorated with gold and polished rubies, suggesting that Eagle was Duck's armor. Eagle moves extremely fast at the player when he attacks with his sword. Its best to attack him while he's doing this, since he isn't using his shield at this time. Avoid all of his swings, as one hit will cost you half your health.

Hawk

Hawk uses a long bow to rain hell upon you and your friends. Hawk will point his bow to the player and release hell upon the player by rapidly firing arrows at them. Each arrow hits for about 10 health, making it survivable to be hit at least once. When Hawk is done releasing hell upon the player he will go into a vulnerable state while he regains his energy.

 Vulture 

Vulture uses a grand scythe, one similar to that of the Grim Reaper's to tear the player's soul from their body. Vulture will slam his scythe into the ground, which then causes an attack in which the floor is torn out and thrown at the player. Each brick thrown at the player takes away 5% of their health. He will also charge up another attack in which he charges toward the player and impales them through the chest, killing them instantly. It's best to attack him while he is preparing to attack.

Raven

Raven uses dark magic to summon creatures to destroy the player for him. Raven will summon strange creatures that can absolutely destroy the player with ease. A hit from any of these creatures will take away about 75% of the player's health, meaning almost certain doom (If the other guards are still alive) It's best to attack him after he summons something, since his shield is down.

Lore

The royal guards, as suggested by their name, are the guards of their king, Duck. Despite what was previously said, they aren't actually alive. The royal guards are suits of armor that were brought to life by "Him" to protect his puppet, Duck.
