Hit: 8 1d8+3 bludgeoning damage   Energy Shot (Recharges on a long rest): The Arcane Guardian unleashes a 5ft wide 60ft long beam of green force energy from its chest’s core. Each creature in the area must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 45 10d8 force damage on a fail and half as much on a successful save.

Arcane guardians are usually equipped with four arms, one wheel, and attachable tools for specific jobs. They were not very durable, but easy to produce in the tower’s factory. They are equipped with a force gem in their chest which acts as both a last moment weapon and their power source.
