Guardians Gifts or Tombs of Legionnaires Offering, usually stylized as Guardians' Gifts, is a legendary item crafting mechanism introduced during the Season of Icetide. All items obtained are guaranteed to have Legendary rarity.
Note: There are tips and tricks on how to optimize the items gained in the last section. Blade Slingers, Pulse Accelerators, and Volt Casters CANNOT be obtained as Guardians' Gifts. Use the Crafting Store or Seasonal Store to obtain them.

The 4 Legionnaires' tombs can be visited in the Freeplay. It is possible to fast travel there by selecting the icon.

Mechanism
Lancers can now convert crafting materials into Legendary-quality items. These materials have to be harvested or salvaged through various methods first. Take the appropriate materials (mentioned below) to one of the 4 Tombs of the Legionnaires, along with a Guardians' Token to be exchanged.
The Freelancer must simply enter the relevant tomb and possess the required materials and at least one guardian token to obtain the gift. The higher the rarity of the embers used, the fewer the number of embers used to craft. Other crafting resources will be same across the board. Simply select one of the four pedestals above which an ember of an appropriate rarity is to be used, then interact with it.
All items obtained have a Legendary rarity whose power level is increased by 50. For example: If the Pilot level is 15, the Power Level of the item will be 15+50, or 65.
At Pilot Level 30, every item received will have Power Level 80 using this mechanism, regardless of the difficulty of the game mode, as of Update 1.7.0.
It is currently known that all Gears, Melee Weapons, Components (both Jav specific and Universal), Support Gears, and Guns introduced before Echoes of Reality are available as Guardians' Gifts. New weapon types introduced during Echoes of Reality cannot be obtained though this method.
Gift of the Sharpshooter
Make an offering to Artinia in exchange for a Legendary Reward.
Exchange crafting Materials for a Legendary Weapon (non-melee weapons only) usable by your current javelin. Weapons can usually be equipped by any javelin unless stated otherwise. The 9 new weapons made available starting Echoes of Reality cannot be obtained as Guardians' Gifts. Again, Blade Slingers, Pulse Accelerators, and Volt Casters CANNOT be obtained because they are not in this reward pool.
Care must be taken when trying to get javelin specific weapons:
- If Heavy Pistols or Machine Pistols are expected, the offering must be made when inside a Ranger or a Storm or an Interceptor.
- If Autocannons or Grenade Launchers are expected, the offering must be made when inside a Colossus.

Tips and Tricks
- There is still randomness involved, but the type of item needed is significantly narrowed down by utilizing this mechanism.
- The difficulty chosen during a Freeplay session does not affect the power level of the obtained Guardians' Gift. It will always be <Pilot Level> + 30.
- Even though the limit on the number of loot drops collected is 50 per session, it is possible to obtain more than 50 gifts. Although they cannot be physically collected, they are automatically collected during the end of the Freeplay Session.
- Although players won't see the loot drops being collect visually, those items will be collected by the game and will be available for the grand reveal when the session ends. So if you make more than 50 offerings, don't worry, they will all be collected for you.
- Since update 1.7.0, the minimum number of tokens received by completing the challenges is 8 every week. The maximum is 15 or 16 and depends on whether the monthly and festive challenges are available to complete during that particular week.
- The power level of the item is fixed at (50 + Pilot Level). So it doesn't matter if the offering is made in any difficulty.
- It is best to not use these tokens until pilot level 30 is reached for maximum benefits.
- At pilot levels 26, 27, 28, and 29, the guardians' gifts obtained will have power levels of 76, 77, 78, and 79 respectively. At pilot level 30, all legendary items obtained in GM1 and GM2 as loot drops will have a fixed power level of 75. So, it is possible to get better items before reaching end game using Guardians' Gifts from Pilot Level 26 onwards.
- It is always better to use Masterwork embers when getting the guardians' gifts because:
- They are abundantly obtainable at end game because of salvaging unnecessary loot.
- All other ember rarities may be needed to craft Sigils before expeditions
- Masterwork embers can only be used to craft masterwork combat equipment.
