A new class, the Vanguard has arrived to Nosgoth, being the second class that the game receives since it began its open beta.

This human class is equipped with a wide variety of thrown weapons and an imposing shield that can block all frontal attacks, reducing their effectiveness in 90% and ignoring additional effects like stagger. The shields can only block a limited amount of damage that regenerates gradually over time.

The following are the available weapons and  skills:

Weapons:

• Kama - A lightweight but powerful weapon that can be thrown in rapid succession


• Waraxe - A massive throwing axe that deals increased damage, but cannot be thrown as quickly as other axes.


• Splitter Hatchet - A Wraith-forged throwing axe that splits into two when thrown.


• Impaler Axe - A cruelly-barbed throwing axe that causes victims to bleed for additional damage over time.

Skills:

• Shield Bash - Smashes a nearby enemy with the shield to damage and disorient them.


• Shield Charge - Rushes forwards to knockdown and damage any enemy.


• Judgment - Scourges nearby vampires. Low health enemies are executed, instantly killing them despite any defensive abilities they have active.


• Rousing Cry - Fortify nearby teammates, increasing their movement speed and life regeneration for a short time.
