A Focus is like a of Guardian. Focuses are the primary way characters improve and level up. Each focus advances from level one all the way up to twenty, with new abilities, passive bonuses, grenade types, and more unlocking over time.[1]
Focus' abilities are shaped as the player levels up, and each upgrade tree is distinct.[1] In any given focus, the player is offered a number of tiers that give the player a choice of attributes such as:

- Vertical movement - i.e short-range teleport or double jump
- Melee bonus
- Weapon specialty
- Passive bonus
- upgrades to super ability
Every class has numerous focuses to acquire and develop, each with its own specialties. Focus is effectively a piece of equipment that can be changed at will, much like selecting a new weapon. One Focus can be used as a competitive multiplayer loadout, while a second healing-oriented focus can be used for cooperative play. Focuses are also meant to be synergistic with the gear the Guardian is wearing.[1]
List of Focuses
- Circle of Night - increases damage dealt but decreases defense. Super ability is the Nova Bomb.[1]
