The 'Elementals really depend on a good Objective (like .. Operation Up
and Over!) to succeed. Note that the benefit only comes when the
Elemental is defeated in combat. This means that Sleep won't get the
bonus; also, it opens it up to a Innocent Bystander. Lastly, it means
the alarm is *probably* triggered, setting up a much nastier (but easier
to skill-sleaze) Challenge to follow. Of course, the Objective
eventually gets taken no matter what.

ObErrata:
GUARDIAN EARTH ELEMENTAL / Challenge (Awakened)
10/12. Unique. -2/-2 for each Shaman present on shadowrun. If
Guardian Earth Elemental is defeated in combat, shadowrunning player
gains 5 Reputation. Whenever Guardian Earth Elemental survives combat,
owner gains 5 Reputation.
