Description

The Golden Body Guard was a unit spawned by the Golden Crook Boss at Level 1 or Level 2. In the game, the Golden Body Guard was referred to as just Body Guard, though it has been referenced here as Golden Body Guard to differentiate itself from other Crook Boss and Golden Crook Boss units. As with other units, it started from the end of the map path and moves towards the entrance of the map. Whenever there was an enemy in its range, the Golden Body Guard would stop moving to shoot at the enemies. It would continue walking when there were no enemies left in its range. The Golden Body Guard had a spawnrate of 50 seconds, 40 seconds if the Golden Crook Boss was Level 2. There was a limit of one unit per Golden Crook Boss at Levels 1 and 2, limiting the amount of Golden Body Guards it could spawn.

Appearance

The Golden Body Guard had pale skin. It had black legs, and wore brown cotton gloves, a black buttoned tuxedo with short yellow sleeves that had dark brown outlines and grey shoes. It also wore a black necktie and was faceless. It also had a yellow briefcase on its back. The Golden Body Guard wielded a Luger P08 in its right hand.

Strategy

You should not rely too much on the Golden Body Guard because of its slow spawnrate. You will need to wait 50 seconds for a Golden Body Guard to spawn if you place down a Golden Crook Boss and immediately upgrade it to Level 1. The Golden Body Guard can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, like the Giant Boss. However, this is not recommended due to the low health of the Golden Body Guard. Do note that the Golden Body Guard's ranged damage is still affected by enemies with defense. The Golden Body Guard cannot detect Hidden and Flying enemies, but they can still be damaged when the Golden Body Guard collides with them. However, this is likely unfavorable as the Golden Body Guard's damage comes primarily from firing at enemies rather than collision. The Ace Pilot cannot give the Golden Body Guard hidden detection. The Golden Body Guard cannot collide with ghost enemies, like the Soul. On maps with multiple paths, only one Golden Body Guard will spawn per Level 1 or 2 Golden Crook Boss. Like other units, the Golden Body Guard will go down a random path. The Golden Body Guard will struggle against fast enemies, like the Shock or Glitch, as they can run into the Golden Body Guard without taking much damage from its ranged attack. The Golden Body Guard is not affected by any buff or debuff as it is a unit. The Golden Body Guard will struggle against any enemy with abilities that damage units due to its low health. For example, if the Fallen King uses its Stomp attack, and a Golden Body Guard is caught in the attack, it is instantly killed.

Trivia

The Golden Body Guard was duplicated for the Level 3 Golden Crook Boss unit, the Golden Body Guards 1, though there are minor differences in appearance.
