__TOC__
==Description==
The '''Warden''', internally referred to as the '''Templar''', is an enemy that appears in [[Polluted Wasteland II]] and [[Challenge Trials]]. It also spawns once in [[Fallen Mode|Fallen]] mode during the [[Hidden Wave]]. It has very high health with high defense and average speed. It has an ability where it fires a glowing purple laser from its chest to stun every tower and damage every unit that comes in contact with it, making it very dangerous and a number-one priority.
 
==Appearance==
The '''TemplarWarden''' is a large humanoid entity with a waist in its rig. It has a dark blue skin color and the ends of its limbs are covered in a cyan fluid. It has an energy pack on its back with an antenna that emits yellow sparks along with batteries connected to it. This energy pack has grey straps. The '''TemplarWarden''' also has metal plating on its body. Its chest has a gaping cavity, revealing its rib cage and a pink cube inside, which emits light blue particles. It has red wounds that span horizontally across the chest cavity.
 
==Strategy==
*The '''Warden''' is a high health enemy which is also [[Hidden (Attribute)|Hidden]], making it particularly dangerous.
*Like all other tanky enemies, high*High DPS towers like the [[Accelerator]] or [[Minigunner]] should be used to take the '''TemplarWarden''' down.
**Towers like the [[Ranger]] can be used if combined with a way to make it target the '''Warden''', like the [[Spotlight Tech]] or [[Firework Technician]].
**The [[Commander]] should be used to boost the firerate of these towers.
**The [[Engineer]] is recommended, as its sentries will continue firing even when the [[Engineer]] is stunned by the '''TemplarWarden's''' ''Heartfelt Laser'' ability.
**The [[Ranger]] and [[Pursuit]] cannot be stunned by the '''TemplarWarden's''' ''Heartfelt Laser'' ability.
**The [[Military Base]]'s [[units]] deal full collision damage to the '''TemplarWarden''', regardless of its defense, making them quite useful.
***Do note that their ranged damage is still decreased.
*It is recommended to place your towers away from the path to avoid getting stunned by the '''TemplarWarden's''' ''Heartfelt Laser'' ability.
*It may be viable to have a cheap distraction tower to distract the '''TemplarWarden's''' ''Heartfelt Laser'' from your main offensive towers.
*When the '''TemplarWarden''' spawns, it will not use its ''Heartfelt Laser'' ability for a few seconds. Use this period of time to defeat the '''TemplarWarden''' before it can stun any towers.
*The [[Medic]] can be used to shield towers that, preventing them from being stunned by the '''TemplarWarden's''' ''Heartfelt Laser'' ability.
**Do note that this will be ineffective while the '''TemplarWarden''' is still using ''Heartfelt Laser'', as the towers will be continuously stunned until the ability is over.
*The [[Gladiator]]'s stun blocking is ineffective against the '''TemplarWarden''', since even after it successfully blocks ''Heartfelt Laser's'' initial stun, it will be stunned again because of how long the ability lasts.
*Slowing towers like the [[CryomancerSaboteur]], [[Electroshocker]], [[Warden]] or [[Freezer]] can be used to slow down the '''TemplarWarden'''.
**However, because of its large size, freezing towers and the [[Warden]] will slow it down for a shorter amount of time.
**Do note that the '''TemplarWarden''' will not stop using its ability when frozen or stunned.
*Defense dropping towers like the [[Pyromancer]], [[Jester]] or [[Freezer]] can help to reduce the '''TemplarWarden's''' defense.

==Trivia==
*The '''Warden''' is very similar to [[Warden (Legacy Enemy)|Warden]] enemy of the same name, first added in [[v1.3.0]] for the very first version of [[Polluted Wasteland II]].
*For some reason, despite being called the '''Templar''', its design does not have any single resemblance to the templar from the [[wp:Knights Templar|Knights Templar]], a Catholic medieval chivalric order, most infamously known for the Crusades.
**Despite their similarities in name, design and functionality, they are technically not the legacy and modern variants of each other, as the '''Warden''' currently seen in [[Polluted Wasteland II]] is in reality the modern version of the [[Templar]] enemy.
*The '''Templar''' is a slightly modified version of the [[Warden (Enemy)|Warden]] enemy.
***Because of this, both of them have two separate [[Logbooks]] that require to be collected.
**Later in 2025, it would actually completely replace the [[Warden (Enemy)|Warden]] in [[Polluted Wasteland II]].
