Royal Guard
Royal Guards are an elite order of Crusaders and Paladins that originally served under King Schmidtz of Glast Heim. King Schmidtz knew that to defend his kingdom from the terrors and chaos of the world he would need a special defense unit that answered only to him. That is how the Griffon-riding Royal Guards came to be. Their name is often abbreviated and then referred to as just "RG".
At a glance, this class has relatively good HP pool and an excellent SP pool, when compared to their class counterpart. Unlike Rune Knights, which are typically forced into Dragon Breath types of builds, the Royal Guard has the option of playing with builds that involve Banding two or more Royal Guards together; a Royal Guard can play Defense or Offense very effectively, given proper foresight of his/her skill tree. In addition to gaining new and powerful offensive skills, the Royal Guard can easily draw upon its older skills, such as Guard, Spear Quicken, Sacrifice, and Shield Chain. This makes for one very powerful, vastly dynamic, and exciting class.

Note: You could still follow the stat and item builds indicated in the guides and generally do well. However, newer items that were added in year 2022 and beyond might have powercrept some of the older items indicated in the guides, and getting those newer items could help your character become even more effective. Furthermore, some changes or updates to certain items might affect the way builds work, such as the update to Death Weapons and Elite Weapons.
