Step-by-step
Use the video as the walkthrough, then use these notes as the practical checklist.
The video frames SoulGuard as obtainable through the Shadow Cube Egg or through Nightmare Dungeon farming. That makes the first decision simple: use the egg route if you have access to it, or farm Nightmare Dungeon if you are directly chasing the rare boss.
Cyclone9 shows SoulGuard's Soul Slash and Ghost Fireball skills applying vulnerable. The practical value is not just that SoulGuard can hit. It can repeatedly set enemies up to take more pressure from your team.
The reason SoulGuard gets the strongest verdict is Spire Dominance. Si calls out the Endless Spire pet-damage passive as the mode-specific reason to care about this boss, so the safest verdict is Spire-first rather than best-everywhere hype.
The video compares SoulGuard against Armored Dracospike, Poseidine, Jokaire, Luminite, and Umber Reaver-style roles. That comparison matters because each pet is useful for a different job. SoulGuard is not automatically your best tank, dungeon support, or farming passive pet.
The practical recommendation is to farm SoulGuard hard if you want to push Endless Spire. If your team still struggles to survive Nightmare Dungeon, a tankier or dungeon-specific pet may be a better immediate priority. If your main goal is normal auto farming, prioritize pets with rank luck, gold, experience, or farming-focused passives.

FAQ
Quick answers for the route, materials, mechanics, and next steps covered in the video.
The video covers two routes: Shadow Cube Egg chances and Nightmare Dungeon farming. Cyclone9's dungeon drop-rate estimate is presented as early experience, not a guaranteed global rate.
SoulGuard looks like an S-tier Endless Spire candidate in the video because of Spire Dominance, but Cyclone9 does not present it as the best monster for every mode.
It can help, but the video is cautious about calling SoulGuard a top dungeon pick because dungeon teams often need tankiness and dungeon-specific passives.
The strongest use case from the video is Endless Spire climbing, where Spire Dominance is the main reason to test and farm SoulGuard.
SoulGuard is not Cyclone9's default auto-farm pick in the video. For normal farming, pets with rank luck, gold, experience, or farming-focused passives may make more sense.
