Vanguard: Game update 4 patch notes - Image 1 


About a day ago, Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) sent out word that they would be temporarily shutting down all their MMORPGs to accommodate several big updates. Now, if you're wondering just what sort of tweaks this may mean for Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, here's a heads-up. The MMORPG's official site has recently posted a complete listing of its share of updates from SOE's widespread maintenance.

Several new features have been added to the game's realms, including the arrival of its much-awaited permanent flying mounts: Griffons and Wyverns. The Griffon quest will require you to head for Southwatch, while the Wyvern quest will take you to Ancient Port Warehouse.

We've posted part of the official changelog below to give you an idea of what's new. Those interested in getting the full details on this Vanguard's fourth update will want to visit the official site, via the source link.
  • Wyvern flying mount quest is now available
  • Griffon mount quest is now active
  • There are now no fly zones around certain areas of content.
  • Helmets are now visible
  • Riftways have been revamped
  • Veteran Rewards are now available for those who have been around for 6 months or longer.
  • All adventuring consumables now share three cooldown timers. Each consumable either has a 2 minute shared cooldown (for all health, energy, and endurance renewal consumables), a 5 minute shared cooldown (for all 'burst' buffs) or a 15 minute shared cooldown (for all long duration buffs).
  • All 30 minute duration buffs from item clicks have had their duration reduced to 15 minutes.
  • Anevka's Renewal now shares a cooldown with low cooldown crafted consumables.
  • Named NPC items have had their item power increased.
  • All named drop items are now BOP
  • All named drop items are no longer deconstructable
  • All named now spawn more often
  • PVP - All fears should now stun in pvp. They will all be set to half the duration of your normal fear, with 30% diminishing returns and have a 25% chance to break on damage.
  • Recasting mez on a target will no longer strip the previous mez. This is also true if the mez attempt is resisted.
  • Refresh timers will now count down while offline.
  • Quest timers will now count down while offline.
  • Fix for a pet ability exploit.
