As the Guardians distanced themselves from whatever is left of modern civilization, they were able to rebuild themselves as a thriving primitive tribal society, with only a fraction of them still tech-savvy enough to operate machinery. This is best exemplified by Spirits, tribal warriors tasked with guarding the outskirts of the Sanctuaries. Dressed in rags or animal hide and armed with bows and arrows, they look straight out of primitives times.

While not having the range or damage output of a Hellfire's missile launcher, they are able to fire off their arrows more rapidly.
