    Boiler Guards possess unmatched skill with ranged weapons, especially blunderbusses and bows. They have an extra-nasty surprise for close-in attackers, spewing flames from their bellies and lighting the would-be assailant ablaze.
    While the use of the [[Broad Sword]] in ''MediEvil'' will suffice to vanquish them, in ''MediEvil: Resurrection'', because the Boiler Guards can deal flame damage at close quarters, it is advised to use retain mode (hold R) and circle around them in order to avoid being hit by their incoming shots, whilst retaliating with a ranged weapon, such as the [[Crossbow]].

    "Hurry comrades, tear this place apart!"
    ― Boiler Guard, commanding his fellow guards.

    The Boiler Guards were part of Zarok's army, so named because they were essentially living kettle boilers. They were renowned for their dutiful (and somewhat sheep-like) devotion to their master.

    Gameplay

    Strategy

    While the use of the Broad Sword in MediEvil will suffice to vanquish them, in MediEvil: Resurrection, because the Boiler Guards can deal flame damage at close quarters, it is advised to use retain mode (hold R) and circle around them in order to avoid being hit by their incoming shots, whilst retaliating with a ranged weapon, such as the Crossbow.

    MediEvil (2019 remake)

    Book of Gallowmere entry

    Zarok's mechanical goon squad, developed deep in the City of Madness (although they were manufactured in China, of course).

    That coal in their stomach fuels them, whilst also cooking up a mean brisket.[2][2.1]

    Behind the scenes

    Development

    MediEvil (2019 remake)

    In the 2019 remake, Boiler Guards no longer deal any damage when Dan comes into contact with them. Only their blunderbuss attack deals damage. Further, the damage of the blunderbuss attack was changed from 32 HP to 50 HP.
