What are Guardian Raids in Lost Ark?

Guardian Raids are a tiered endgame activity that pits up to four players against a Guardian boss. During the raid, there is a time limit of 20 minutes, and each time you fight a Guardian, it comes equipped with its own unique mechanics.

Lost Ark Guardian Raids, explained

These activities are very similar to other dungeons, such as the Chaos Dungeon. However, the difference between the two is that it is highly recommended to go in with a full team when doing a Guardian Raid.

While it is possible to do the raid alone, the more players involved, the more rewards become available. There is also an individual player cap of two runs per character daily, and for every day you miss, the loot is doubled, with a cap at five runs.

So, when the time comes for you to unlock and join a Guardian Raid, make sure that you bring your best gear and prepare to fight huge monsters for rewards like Ability Stones and Class Engraving Books that make it completely worthwhile. Take advantage of each day, and don't forget to invite your friends, too!
