The Vanguard Invasion Set is an unofficial set - that is to say, a collection of items which obviously should be put together but grant nothing other then bragging rights should you accomplish it.

It comprises of two items, the Obsidian Blade (a somewhat unconventional version of the Longsword) and a dark Chaos Shield (a normal Chaos Shield with extra properties), dropped by Vanguard Controllers during the Vanguard invasion. This event was Part III of the larger event arc Warriors of Destiny.

This sword is, for all intents and purposes, a Longsword, but has a different weight/graphic attached to it. Apparently Vanguard Controllers could use it's Armor Ignore attack without spending Mana, though this is not true for player controlled characters.

The items were worth 2,500 points each during the Spring Cleaning 2008 event. They no longer spawn in game and are considered fairly rare.

When completely assembled, the total modifiers are:


Special Moves

Secondary Concussion Blow Concussion Blow
