— In-game description

Cactguard is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Blue Mage.

Flavor Text

Wild sabotenders are believed to have developed this ability to channel their aether toward others as a means of protecting particularly fruitful members of their species─as survival in arid climes ever comes at a cost.

Acquisition

Duties

Sabotender Gaurdia in Level 50 dungeon The Sunken Temple of Qarn (Hard)

Tips

Acquisition Tips

Sabotender Gaurdia will spawn during the last phase of the fight against The Sunken Temple of Qarn (Hard), Sabotender Emperatriz (the 2nd boss of the dungeon). Once a diamond shaped barrier appears around the boss, the spell has been cast.

Other Tips

Ideal when mimicking Tank with Aetherial Mimicry. Useful to assist the defense of other Blue Mage party members.
