How To Unlock The Tribes of Midgard’s Guardian
- Play in a new world as a Warrior or Ranger. Note that defeating 3 Jotunn is easier with friends, so try to start a world with one or more companions.
- Level up and last until about Day 9. For this to be easy, try to counter invading Jotunn with their weaknesses. Your goal is to easily whittle them down before they arrive at your base.
- Once you defeat the 3rd Jotnar, use the Bifrost to exit the world and save your progress.
- If successful, proceed to the Progress screen, then select Challenges.
- Go to Class Challenges and click “Claim” on the Guard’s challenge to unlock the class.
- Start a new world and level up once to unlock and enjoy the Guardian.
