The Vanguard Attacks! (Some Spoilers)

As I was sitting around in Cove on Origin, I happened to come across this group of new inhabitants...




The Vanguard also had a few pieces of interesting equipment on them...







Along with the Vanguard Controllers, there were sightings of...
  • Liches
  • Dark Wisps
  • Shadow Iron Elementals
  • Dark Wolves
  • Daemons
  • Lich Lords
  • Dark Guardians
  • Zombies
  • Brigands
  • Restless Souls
  • Nightmares

The Vanguard also have some interesting things to say, the sayings I've heard so far are...
  • Legum Servi Sumus
  • Beware I live...
  • Bellum Omnium In Omnes
  • Bellum letale
  • Libertatum Est Vendere
  • Bellum...
  • Bella Horrida
  • Magnus acervus erit
  • I am Vanguard!
  • Aut Viam Invenium
  • I hunger!
  • Non Est Disputandum
  • Beware Coward!
  • Run, Coward!
  • Dulce Bellum!
  • Run!

Since I was not combat suited, I couldn't check the Vanguards combat strength, what they dropped upon death, or anything about the new mounts they rode. The cities of Nujelm, Cove and Delucia seem to be the only ones under attack, however they are being attacked in both Trammel and Felucca.

Re: The Vanguard Attacks! (Some Spoilers)

As far as the sayings go, they are apparently Latin, I had a friend translate them for me. He said the tenses are somewhat incorrect, however this is what he believed them to be... (Note, some spoilers below).

* Legum Servi Sumus = You are laws servant.
* Bellum Omnium In Omnes = War all in all.
* Bellum letale = A fatal war.
* Libertatum Est Vendere = Freedom is being sold.
* Bellum... = War...
* Bella Horrida = Horrible War.
* Magnus acervus erit = The great heap is. (He was unsure on that one)
* Aut Viam Invenium = Discover the path or else.
* Non Est Disputandum = There are no debates.
* Dulce Bellum! = Great war!

No berserkers, and Moonglow still has the gate and monsters, although the amount of monsters seems to be very low, but that could be just because I'm comparing Origin to Atlantic.

Re: The Vanguard Attacks! (Some Spoilers)

I was there , pretty fun dying but still it was enjoyable. The spawns for awhile got insane.
One cool thing is the house placed right outside the gates , good place to rest/rez
my poor pet got battered bad by the controllers.
Some stuff couldnt be hurt by my cu either.

I was able to assist on one vanguard but didnt see a cloak or anything on him

Hey anyone able to tame one of those steeds? I saw some people leading a couple around.

Re: The Vanguard Attacks! (Some Spoilers)

nice!
ok moonglow is still there.
Some questions:

- those city, delucia-cove-jhelom, have a mirror place like moonglow
or the city are infected in trammel?

- any use for blackrock? or they work only on shadowlords?

thx
