      Although you can essentially do the same in botw with an ancient arrow to normal guardian stalkers, Gloom hands don't even compare to those guardians in the major tests of strength shrines, being extremely hardy to all elements and having an insane amount of health, and being essentially impossible to one hit kill, even with ancient arrow + x5 lynel bow spam. Guardians > gloom hands + phantom in strength, fun fight, and design.

      The most logical answer imo is that they were scrapped for parts, which Purah and Robbie used to develop technology such as the Purah Pad and the Lookout Towers.
      The rest of the parts are likely either stored away somewhere, or were destroyed so that evil influence can't take over them again.
      This would apply to the Guardians and Divine Beasts, but what about the shrines?
      That's where the "vanishing" comes into play. Many of them rose up out of the ground, so perhaps all of them sunk back into the ground after the Calamity. They're either between the surface and the depths, or they're even further beneath the depths.

    You know what would've been really cool. That down in the depths, maybe like around Hyrule Castle depths, there's a hidden tunnel or cave that leads you into a wide space and inside it is a guardian, and it's completely covered in malice. Doubling it's health and durability like a mini boss and it's movements could be somewhat kinda like how Age of Calamity was making it challenging. And the amount of damage that we do to it is pretty weak, even when we hit it in the eye. The only weak point is under it's body and the player somehow needs to flip it over or on it's side. But let the battle be optional, kinda like a secret boss or so, but it can still be revived by the blood moon too.

      I'd say gloom hands are scarier than guardians. They don't emit the same PTSD inducing piano track that the guardians play but seeing them slither towards you while the sky turns red and the music becomes distorted on a new playthrough will never not be scary and will make you either give up and die or tp away. Meanwhile guardians can be beaten with a pot lid consistently however gloom hands require you to waste the durability of your weapons and bows. Atleast phantom ganon gives you weapons back when you kill him, while guardians give you parts you have to turn into weapons.

    Have to say I miss the guardians, but the reactions of people seeing the gloom hands for the first time is awesome as I played it at release I watched people stream their play through and the first one most ran into including myself was the one in the cave where the Taki-ihaban Shrine is, west of the New Serenne Stable by Lindor's Brow Tower. Their surprise and the whole series of emotions everyone went through, it was "hmmm what's that? Oh sh*it what the h*ll is that?! RUN RUN RUN!! WTF was that?" It was so entertaining and because it showed up so early some people made it to the shrine then couldn't get back across to get out of the cave and hadn't gotten used to the new abilities avaliable and instead of using ascend they would keep trying to get across unsuccessfully. But still wish there was some guardians running around but the game is awesome and it makes sense that they wouldn't have them. Just such a good enemy and if the blood moon can bring back the enemies why couldn't it bring back the guardians too, I get it and all, but it could have been another enemy. It doesn't take away from this masterpiece of a game in any way, it would just be fun to use some of the new abilities with the old enemies and use fuse with some of the guardian parts that could have been added. Missed opportunity kinda. But the enemies we did get was awesome bringing back the Gleeok, Gibdos, Like Likes, and others and adding the new enemies all the Constructs Flux, captains, soldiers, Horriblins, and Boss Bokoblins with their hords are great.

    And since it's just one, you can turn it into a super/secret boss that basically throws away everything you learned in BotW to make it a pretty challenging fight.
