Vanguard: Interview & Video

Massively has two features of interest to Vanguard players. The first is an interview with Vanguard dev Lenny Gullo. The interview focuses on Update 5 and deals with the new racial mounts as well as what is on for the next update.

Anything new in crafting or diplomacy coming this patch? Can people earn the faction for the new mounts purely through diplomacy?

Nothing "new" to say. There are just more bug fixes and tweaks as normal. At the moment, there is no way to earn points in the new faction through diplomacy. We are not ruling it out though. We wanted to get the system set up first for adventuring.

I imagine the diplomats will be somewhat eager to see it come for them as well.

In time, we may add a way for it to be earned through diplomacy. By the way, the way you earn faction is by trading in coins. These coins you earn from fighting under the banner of your city.

There is also a video featuring the various mounts coming in Update 5.

Check it out at Massively.
