 ==Useful Info==
-'''Orb Guardians''' are enormous creatures which prowl the chambers of the [[Orb of Zot]]. They lack any special abilities, but are fast, come in large numbers, are durable enough to handle a few turns of abuse, and often wander into combat as you're fighting the scarier monsters of [[Zot]]. Normally, they are only found in Orb chamber of [[Zot:5]], though they can spawn anywhere during the [[ascension]].

 ==Tips & Tricks==
 *If you're encountering Orb Guardians, you're almost there! Please be careful.
-*Although by no means harmless, Orb Guardians are normally one of the least threatening enemies found on Zot:5. Try not to fight them near a [[moth of wrath]]- a [[berserk]] Orb Guardian hits ''much'' harder and faster than normal.

-'''Orb Guardians''' are enormous creatures which prowl the chambers of the [[Orb of Zot]], assaulting intruders on sight. They lack any unique or special abilities, but they have excellent speed, hit hard, appear in swarms, are durable enough to handle a few turns of abuse from high-level characters, and often wander into combat with you as you're facing one of the more interesting inhabitants of [[the Realm of Zot]]. They are normally only found in the Orb chamber of [[Zot:5]], but can randomly generate anywhere during the [[ascension]].
