Great news Vanguard gamers – Game Update 5 has made its way to the Live servers! Now more than ever Telon is an exciting place to be for heroes ready to make their mark in the world. With the addition of the Citizen Favor system, adventurers will be able to align themselves with a city, carrying their banner and slaying foes in their honor in order to earn special tokens and favor which can be used to buy special items. The most notable being the new racial mounts!
Each race within Vanguard has a unique mount that can only be obtained by earning favor with the proper city. You can see a complete listing of the various mounts here. Not sure where to start? Here you'll find the various NPCs who will help you begin earning favor for their respective cities. A few classes received a revamp this update, with spell additions for Psionicists and Blood Mages.
