Drops
- Painting Guardian Sword - rare
- Throwing Knife - common, 2 or 5 per drop
Attack Pattern
- Throwing Knives - they'll start throwing these the moment they notice you
- Sword slashes - they use the same moveset as the Painting Guardian Sword, and like the sword, they build up bleed when hit
- Backstab - they won't circle you, but they can backstab you for massive damage when they're behind you
Strategy
- Sometimes they'll switch their left-hand weapon with a Target Shield, making them capable of blocking your attacks.
- Kill them one by one. Two guardians fighting you raises your chance getting your guard broken, as they attack relentlessly and their combo attack can kill you easily.
- When you come from inside the painting, you'll be facing their backs. You can easily backstab them one by one.
