At the anniversary event in Pocket D, I think it'd be totally awesome if we all used our alignment emote at the same time

Well I'm not trying to be too negative but...I'm a little disappointed about the "free booster pack" that we'll be getting. All the Vanguard pack is, is the Vanguard items that we can get with Vanguard Merits already...just kind of 'meh' to me. Oh, yes, I forgot the non-combat pet.... >_>
I appreciate the idea but...maybe have the option for us to choose an actual booster pack that we could get for free?

Awesome. I have yet to actually have a character complete the costume via VG merits, let alone 80 of them. Much appreciated.

If you prefer to wait until level 35 and collect merits to unlock them on every character, feel free to not use them. For me, I was completely ignoring these pieces on most characters because I wasn't interested in collecting the merits, and even less so now that those merits can be saved for an Incarnate component.

The trailer is very nice. The colours are a bit oversaturated, but maybe is intentional.
Nice stuff.
Wow I just saw this and it came out today and already 5 pages pretty cool.
Ok gotta say it SQUEEEEEEE!!! Ok I am done, anyone got a papertowel I kinda made a mess. :P
I love this idea, *thanks hubby again for buying a year subscription for me for christmas*. Woot I am all set, now just have to wait til April 28 for me to get the goodies.
Also THANKS DEVS! and CONGRATS ON 7 YEARS OF AWESOME!
Cancel the kitchen scraps for widows and lepers, no more merciful beheadings and call off christmas!

I only actually bought the Vanguard bow for my TA/A defender; beyond that...I don't really care about the costume pieces/items. :P

What's not to love about that?Still waiting for them to comment on if the Vanguard Shield is included in the pack or not (as it's not mentioned like all the other pieces are).

Hrm, my two accounts are scheduled for renewal on Feb 29th and March 4th. If I cancel subscription, and then immediately sign up again for six months each, would that prevent any interruption time?

We getting equivalent of 1050 Vanguard merits just for the complete costume set+100 Vanguard merits for the AWESOME costume change emote+ 100 Vanguard merits for each weapon.
1 Badge, 1 Chest emblem and the Vanguard pet.
I think is awesome, I dont have the time to purchase that amount of Vanguard merits for a single character.
And I hope this is just the start of more account-wide costume unlocks.
As a favor, if you're going to put out a Vanguard theme pack, could you include the Vanguard chest emblem from the 30 month veteran reward?
Just for completeness sake, y'know.
Some very nice rewards for the 7th year. Much thanks to the powers that be for this one.
Hmm Bonus stuff.
Instead of having to wait to lvl 35 and get vanguard merits, and use vanguard merits on costume parts... I can use them for incarnate salvage and Hvas... EXCELLENT
Emote as well, nice. Sounds like a great gift for celebration of 7 years.
...
Just a pity its until April!
Are we there yet? ;D

I like where this is going. Vanguard Merits are for Heavies and Incarnate pieces now.

I find your lack of signature disturbing.
Once again the gift horse's mouth gets far more scrutiny that is warranted.
Considering we never got any Anniversary presents in the past, unless you count the badges, and the GM/AV spawns the past two years, I think this is an awesome gift.
Thanks, Paragon Studios!

this is great stuff.. my alt account will expire on April 18.. will it still be good? I'll most likely add more time well before that.. just asking.

Sweet. The only thing this announcement is missing is an issue 19.5 release date and it'd be the best thing to happen all month.
I especially love the MVAS it's a step in the direction of a suggestion I made a few years ago about mini pets of the Freedom Phalanx/Arachnos Elite/Kronos Titan

Love this. Even more so when Paragon Studios paid for the time.
