No, Haynar, there was and is only 1 guardian. There are 3 vanquishers though, and their appropriately tagged mobs: arbiter, banisher, caller, expulser, revolter, walker. A particular set of 2 mobs are tagged together along with a vanquisher who's attached to these particular 2 mobs (be it arbiter/banisher or walker/revolter, caller/expulser). Each set of 2 is attached to a vanquisher and if that particular vanquisher doesn't die then the arbiter/banisher will respawn after death, so you have to watch the pathing to pull the proper vanq and 2 mobs. The particular vanquisher was picked out by watching the pathing on live and it's done the same way here. From what we've observed this part is working correctly.
The guardian can himself instantly respawn, but only if another vanquisher is up (and thus another 2 mobs attached to that vanquisher, because it's impossible to kill the other 2 trash with him still being up). The guardian, though, shouldn't be attached to a single vanquisher, but rather all of them. So long as there is 1 vanq up guardian should be respawning. This we haven't tested yet.
The Spiroc Lord is attached to the guardian. There should be no particular guardian that makes Lord spawn, just as there is no particular vanquisher for the guardian to respawn. So long as there is 1 of them up it will suffice (and because there is only 1 guardian at any given time, Lord always instantly respawns as long as he's up).
The only mobs that are attached to a particular mob are the 6 differently named instantly respawning trash mobs that are attached to a vanquisher and drop no loot.
EDIT: The trash mobs > vanquisher is working fine. We've tested this before (a month ago or so?) and they respawned when their vanquisher was still alive. We actually reported the bug before when they weren't respawning and that's all sorted out now (or presumably, haven't tried it in a month or so). The issue is that the Spiroc Lord isn't respawning when the guardian is up, and whether the guardian respawns if a vanquisher is up we just haven't tried, but judging by the pathing and the aggro radius we probably couldn't try unless we decided to off-tank 3 mobs at once and that part is easier for you guys to check :P
