Vanguardian
Vanguardians empower their allies and vanquish their enemies, near or far. Take a Hero's Charge into battle and unleash your fists of fury, or leap to range and launch Plasma Blasts into the fray.

No plans to have the Vanguardian available by itself on the Trove Store. It'll be craftable for free or can be picked up via one of two new packs.

The Vanguardian is the hero we deserve. Rising up against the forces of shadow she is a stalwart protector of the innocent and a fierce warrior of the light.
Whether you prefer to keep your foes at a distance and pepper them with powerful energy blasts or get up in their grills and unleash fists of fury, the Vanguardian packs a powerful wallop.
Passive
- Touchdown – Gliding supercharges the Vanguardian. This charge is released when landing causing a shockwave that destroys blocks in the open world. In an effort to be a good clubmate this ability doesn’t trigger in Club Worlds.
Ranged Mode
- Mouse 1: Rapid fire energy orbs are unleashed from the Vanguardian’s hands.
- Mouse 2: Plasma Blast – Fire a ball of pure energy that explodes on impact and deals AoE damage.
- 1: Fired Up – A self-buff that increases damage and attack speed.
- 2: Hero’s Charge – This skill triggers a dash forward and a self-heal. It also swaps the Vanguardian into Melee mode.
Melee Mode
- Mouse 1: Pummel enemies with powerful punches.
- Mouse 2: Eyebeam – A high powered blast of energy is fired from the Vanguardian’s eyes doing damage and increasing damage done to the target from any source.
- 1: Force Flash – An AoE kinetic energy pulse that damages nearby enemies, buffs your movement speed, and increases your damage resistance.
- 2: Laser Leap – Leap backwards, get a big burst of energy, and swaps back into ranged mode.
She is a physical damage class regardless of whether you prefer melee or ranged combat so you won’t need to swap gear to reach peak power.
We’re thrilled to add a new weapon style for the Vanguardian: fist weapons. These come in many shapes and sizes including brass knuckles, long-bladed knives, or giant foam fingers.
As our first “expert class” the Vanguardian is taller than other Trovians and has a more fluid set of animations whether you’re fighting, gliding, dancing, dashing, or dabbing.
She can be crafted for free using in-game materials at the Resistor Workbench or picked up with a pack available in the Trove Store when Heroes goes live. The Vanguardian cannot be unlocked using a Class Coin.
Special thanks to the incredibly talented @ArtByCelyne for this gorgeous interpretation of Trove's newest hero!
When Trove – Heroes is unleashed upon the world the Vanguardian will rise up to answer the call to action – are you ready?

Preview: ge assortment of items that include the new Vanguardian class, 14 new allies, 7 new mou Show
Luminopolis is a sprawling, technological wonder that’s home to many massive marvels of modernity!
The towering skyline helps this epic new cityscape stand apart from other biomes. Explore this gorgeous new sub-biome to truly appreciate the sprawling, tech-inspired architecture.
Luminopolis is also home to a conflict between the brutal Amperium and the Resistors.
- Amperium – Robot overlords who wish to spread their influence across the many worlds of Trove. The Amperium are led by the fearsome Ampress C455-Andra.[/*]
- Resistors – Rebels who fight back the forces of the Amperium with the aid of Kami (robotic avatars imbued with spiritual energy) and Trovians like you![/*]
As part of the push to dominate Luminopolis, the Amperium use it as a staging ground for powerful Rampage Bosses. These massive bosses could lay waste to the Resistors which is why they need your help!
Whenever a massive world boss is summoned it will trigger a Rampage Alert for Trovians around the world.
Travel to Luminopolis (inside Neon City) and fight back against the rampaging invaders. These towering behemoths are tough so it’ll take teamwork to bring them down.
The Resistors have also set up Outposts throughout Luminopolis.
This is where you’ll find Resistor Workbenches for crafting a huge assortment of items that include the new Vanguardian class, 14 new allies, 7 new mounts, the Windtunnel Wings, 5 new tomes, 18 new frameworks, and a +50% Adventurine potion.
The Neon City Scrap Case is a new adventure box that can drop in Neon City and Luminopolis. These boxes contain materials used for crafting at Resistor Outposts.
These outposts are also the spot for picking up Outpost Adventures to earn more rewards!
Get ready to learn even more about the fast approaching Trove – Heroes expansion in the weeks ahead!
The Vanguardian arrives with our Spring update. No release date to announce yet.
