Swordmaster's guard perk?? What the hell is this?

[Ceceli Δ]

It makes your sword LOSE efficiency and defense. So what the hell? Why would I choose this over Heavy Guard?

Somebody clearly hasn't fiddled around with a Counterattack Throne-Cleaver and the Stronghold exotic Titan guantlets.

It doesn't 'lower' Efficiency per se, it just gives a low bonus (+5), while lowering Defence (-14). If you compare it to Balanced Guard (which offers no bonuses at all) you'll see the increase.

Not defending it though since it's functionally inferior to Heavy Guard (+20 Efficiency, +20 Defence). It came from Year 1 when all weapons had fixed perks, so while it wasn't particularly good on the weapons it came on, it was the only one they had. In Y2 when weapons started getting random perks, it was added to a random pool along with the others, so yeah, it almost always gets paired with a superior one.

While we're talking about guards, that's also in comparison to Burst Guard (-30 Efficiency, +25 Defence), Enduring Guard (+25 Efficiency, -20 Defence) and Infinite Guard (+100 Efficiency, no Defence bonus, forgot if this one was in the general pool or if it's currently unique to Worldline Zero).
