Figured since I am recently returned, as are a bunch of other people, that  we may as well get a new collection of links since the sticky at the top contains many broken links:

Here is what I got so far:

VG Crafters

http://vgcrafters.wikispaces.com/

Not the original but the next best thing.

Official Forums

http://forums.station.sony.com/vg/forums/list.m

Not the most active forums, but still a good spot to find answers and ask questions.

Ten Ton Hammers Guides

http://www.tentonhammer.com/vanguard/guides

Nice Character creation guides.  Nothing fancy and it is old, but most of it still applies.

VG Walthroughs

http://www.vgwalkthroughs.com/

Nice site with alot of quest walkthroughs.  United Races, Hunters League etc.  All viewable by level range.

Racial Mounts 

http://www.kayoss.net/vgmounts.htm

A nice site to show the various Racial Mounts and how to get them.  Not alot of new players are aware of these.

Info Map

http://www.vginterface.com/downloads/info96-InfoMapAdvanced.html

User Interface with detailed maps and a bunch of other useful information. 

Xanadu Community

http://vanguard.xanadu-community.com/items.php?page=new&id=160

Has nice item database and  a damage parser available for download for those DPS freaks.

Dungeon Guru

http://www.dungeonguru.net/index.php?title=Vanguard:_Saga_of_Heroes_Dungeon_Wiki

Info on all Dungeons and zones in Game.

Silky Venom

http://wiki.silkyvenom.com/index.php/Crafting

Wiki Style Site with lots of good info.  Link is to crafting section, but lots of other good info as well.

Wings of Justice

http://wingsofjustice.wordpress.com/

Old Guild site with lots of usefull info.

If anyone has any other  links they would like to share let me know and I'll add them in.  It will be nice to have an up to date list of links for VG on this site since lots of players try VG after hearing about it here and information on VG can be rather hard to find.

http://www.dungeonguru.net/index.php?title=Vanguard:_Saga_of_Heroes_Dungeon_Wiki
