First things first: I love this mod, and the guardian class implements some things I've been wanting from terraria since the first time I played it. That being said- I really do wish gauntlets got a bit more attention. They're THE thing I tried this mod for, and I understand they're not the focus of the class, but currently they feel very lacking in quantity and diversity, both pre and post WoF. I mean, only two options pre-hardmode? While pavises and warhammers get an upgrade each boss? It just feels really lacking as someone who wants to main them, especially with how a chunk of guardian accessories don't synergize at all with the subclass. I could say the same about standards, though given they're more of a support tool I understand how there's fewer of them.

As a suggestion and personal wish: I'm not sure how you feel about references, but I would love to see a gauntlet inspired by the cursed gauntlets Yuji uses near the end of JJK, with a fun little delayed hit and/or black flash mechanic that lets you deal more damage if your timing is spot on. Maybe they could be found in the dungeon pre-hardmode, or maybe they could be a pumpkin moon drop in hardmode. Either way, that's my pitch.

Thank you for your work on the mod, and my best wishes to the team.
