The Vanguard is a quest.

Details

Property	Description
Giver	Vampires
Membership	Member
Requirements	Rank 2+
Summary	Drive werecreatures from a dungeon and bring back the tusk of their wereboar leader.

Objectives

Use the location names in your quest journal. Follow map markers when they are available.

Step	Objective	Optional
1	Answer the vampire's summons at the quest building in the named town	No
2	Drive the werecreatures from the quest dungeon and slay their leader, the wereboar	No
3	Bring the wereboar's tusk back to the vampire as a trophy	No

Outcomes

Added gear requires a successful quest payment and a qualifying outcome. Quest mail alone does not count as payment.

Outcome	Gold multiplier	Gear choice
The wereboar is dead, the quest dungeon is ready for the ancients of your vampire clan, and the tusk is yours to keep.	100%	Yes
The lycanthropes still hold the quest dungeon.	No added payment	No

With Questlines enabled, these outcomes control the added rewards. Gold multipliers apply only to gold the quest actually pays. A gear choice offers a weapon, armour and jewellery; keep one. See Quest rewards and loot for rarity, payment and online reward rules.

Possible quest foes

Foe	Group size
Werewolf	1
Wereboar	1

These are the script’s possible foe groups, including conditional encounters. They are not all guaranteed to appear together; repeated attacks and ordinary dungeon enemies can add more. Follow a foe’s reference for its combat rules before choosing weapons.

See Quest reference for offer requirements across quests.

Scripted item payments

Item	Quantity per payment	Selection
Wereboar’s Tusk	1	Alchemy ingredient

These are item payments made by the quest’s script. The objective or branch still determines which payment you receive. They are separate from the additional fitted gear choice and from ordinary enemy or chest loot.
