<u>Special Weapon MOD</u> - '''Celebration!!!''', "fires two homing projectiles that detonate in a festive explosion dealing 72% Hero Damage as magical damage over a small area." The values are fixed, so it does not matter what level the weapon is or what level the MOD is. The explosion flair is fireworks, and hits for a very limited AOE attack. The projectiles are two homing rockets that fire in separate horizontal arcs, making a an oval pattern, with the size of the arc is based on how far away the target you are aiming at when you fire. If it misses, the rocket will spin around the target and attempt to hit it again, and eventually explode. Since the projectiles arc, there is a void spot directly in front of EV2 that it cannot hit at very close range, so this weapon is best used at any distance. The projectile will apply any crowd control or elemental values of the hero upon contact with the enemy.

<u>Special Weapon MOD</u> - '''Fist of Bones''', "Attacks fire piercing bones that deal XX.X% Hero Damage as Magical Damage. Bones can hit for XX times and reflect off of surfaces." Chaos 4 values [?-?%, ?-? times], Chaos 7 values [42.45-55.5%, 10-13 times]. The Lavamancer's primary melee attack pattern still plays out, along with the fire attack, but while doing his combo, these spinning cross -shaped bones will shoot out, one at a time, in a linear horizontal path. The bones will pierce quite a lot of enemies and reflect off of most surfaces. The projectile will apply any crowd control or elemental values of the hero upon contact with the enemy. This attack pierces, but that does not include Chaos enemy's defenses such as [[Shield_Geode|Geode]] or [[Vanguard]] shields.
<u>Playing Condition</u> - the schedules on this map will produce enemies similar to a Chaos 6 expedition of the same map. All air and ground lanes are the same. No mutators are applied to any lanes. All normal minibosses may spawn from any lane, and they spawn at a high rate on each wave. There is a [[Slekeleon]] miniboss named Trikk that spawns on the left side of Maldonis on Wave 3, then regenerates at the beginning of each subsequent wave, and has a unique purple flair. There is also a [[Orcs|Orc]] miniboss named Treet (i.e. both are a Halloween theme, as in "Trikk" or "Treet") that spawns on Wave 4 to the right of Maldonis, and has a unique zombie skin flair. A new miniboss named Maldonis the Dark (large version of a [[Dark_Mages|Dark Mage]]) is present as an NPC in the North center of the map, in front of the Temple entrances. He does not attack as a miniboss on Waves 1-4, and on Wave 5 he will drop down and become a miniboss you must defeat mid-way through the wave. Sniper Warbleed (large version of a [[Hex_Throwers|Hex Thrower]]) also commonly spawns on any wave, from any lane, and more than one lane at a time is possible. On Wave 5, you will often face 3 random miniboss spawns, Trikk regenerating, Maldonis the Dark, and possibly one or more Sniper Warbleeds.
What makes this incursion unique are the Death Marks that Maldonis summons throughout each wave, placed randomly on the map. Maldonis will do an animation, and then somewhere on the map, a small green area on the ground will light up, and that small area will then be a Death Mark for the rest of that wave. Death Marks cause hero damage over time when you stand upon them, similar to how poison or fire might damage you. They do not damage defenses. The damage will cease as soon as you step outside of the mark area. The mark only does damage if you are standing on the ground, and does not effect affect those who are standing on elevated objects within the mark or those in the air above one. Maldonis continues to summon marks as long as play continues on each wave, and the frequency of the summons increases on each wave. On Wave 1 you may see 6 or more marks, and by Wave 5 you can see 18 or more. Marks can overlap, and do only minor damage. When marks are summoned, they are not visible on the minimap, but a white skull and crossbones icon will show on the screen for each one, as long it exists. All current marks on the map vanish at the end of each wave. On Wave 5, Maldonis summons a huge amount of Marks all at once, right before he descends as a miniboss, and no more Marks will spawn after that.
A stage mechanic has been added to this incursion so that you can remove Death Marks. In the Southeast part of the map, the Subcore is called the Holy Artifact. Touching the Subcore with your hero will gain you a sparkling golden glow debuff around your hero, known as the Holy Aura. The debuff will last 45 seconds, but no icon will show it on the screen apart from the cosmetic. To vanquish a Death Mark, have your hero walk anywhere on the ground inside a Death Mark while you have the Holy Aura, and it will then instantly disappear. You cannot do this from the air or on an elevated surface. You will not lose the debuff when you vanquish a mark, so you can eliminate as many Death Marks as you can touch in the 45 second time frame. If you swap heroes while you have the debuff or die, you will lose it. To get the debuff again, touch the Holy Artifact for another 45 second debuff. There is no requirement to remove any marks apart from the fact that it will make playing the stage easier.
<u>Special Weapon</u> - '''Meowmere''' (light [[Weapons#Swords|sword]] for [[Squire]]/[[Dryad]]/[[Barbarian]]). Although two different versions of this sword can drop, with only the Squire or Dryad listed as usable, all three sword using heroes can use either one. Up to two special weapons can drop in one victory chest.
<u>Playing Condition</u> - this stage has the same number of ground and air lanes, and a new miniboss. The schedules on this map will produce enemies similar to a Chaos 7 expedition of the same map. No mutators are applied to any lanes. You are given a pool of 4 lives that all heroes on the map share. A Life Counter is shown in the center of the screen at all times so that you know how many lives you have left. If any hero dies during combat phase, that number will be reduced by one, for each death. Deaths on build phase or after the map is complete do not subtract from this total. If the last hero on the map dies during combat and the life counter is set to zero, you will fail the incursion. You begin Wave 1 with only 1500 Defense Units, whereas on Expedition you start with 2400. All normal minibosses may spawn. 1 will spawn on Wave 2, 2 on Waves 3 and 4, and 3 will spawn on Wave 5. The minibosses on Waves 2-4 all come from the Southeast and Southwest spawn points, and then on Wave 5 those two locations spawn again as well as the North spawn point will also spawn an additional normal miniboss along with the Bastille Master. No minibosses will come form from the Central Southeast and Central Southwest spawn points. When you begin Wave 1 you will have infinite building time. However, once you begin combat phase on Wave 1, a timer begins with 1300 seconds (a little over 21 min) on it. This timer continuously counts down from that point forward, and includes all of the following build and combat phases until the stage is over. This stage only has 1 crystal to defend in the center of the map, close to where you spawn, as opposed to the expedition version that has 4 crystals.
This incursion also introduces a new miniboss, the Bastille Master. This is a unique miniboss to the game, and can spawn as a miniboss in other game modes. The Bastille Master appears as a NPC on the North end of the long bridge on Waves 1-4, and then on Wave 5 she disappears and then spawns from the North spawn point, usually along with another normal miniboss near the same time. What makes this miniboss unique is her ability to summon shield around her and any surrounding enemies that reflects all damage back to its source and instantly kill it. If one of your defenses attacks her while this shield is up, it will be lost. Same for your hero, if you attack any enemy with this shield active, you will lose a life. The shield is not affected by traps, auras or nodes though. The shield can still be activated while the Bastille Master is stunned.
<u>Special Weapon</u> - '''Haunted HalbredHalberd''' ([[Weapons#Staves|staff]] for [[Apprentice]]/[[Adept]]). Has 4.5 speed, 1 spread, and Spooky I flair shots. <u>Special Weapon MOD</u> - '''Ghastly Halberd''', "Secondary Attack summons Ghastly Halberds that attack for XXX% Ability Power as damage, twice per second, for 15 seconds. You can summon up to X"" Chaos 7 values [263-485%, 5-9 halberds]. Using the secondary attack button allows you to choose a small area on the ground where the Ghastly Halbred will be placed. All enemies inside that circle will be hit with damage at the same time. Ghastly Halberds can be stacked upon one another and overlap.
===Revenge of the Yeti===
<u>Special Weapon MOD</u> - '''Demonic Scythes''', "Secondary Attacks summon Demon Scythes that deal XXX.X% Ability Power as Magical Damage and pierce up to 5 targets. Charged Attacks deal XXX% Ability Power as Magical Damage and pierce up to 10 targets." Chaos 7 values [143.31-192.9%, 425.2-518%]. Primary Attacks are unaffected. The scythe is a cross -shaped spinning projectile that shoots one at a time, straight forward at chest level. You can rapid fire the scythes by quickly pressing the secondary attack button. The charged version is bigger in size. The projectile will apply any crowd control or elemental values of the hero upon contact with the enemy. This attack pierces, but that does not include Chaos enemy's defenses such as [[Shield_Geode|Geode]] or [[Vanguard]] shields. ===Dark Awakening=== <u>Map</u> - Plunderer's Paradise (The High Seas), 5 waves. <u>Playing Condition</u> - this stage is very similar to a Chaos 7 expedition of the same map, however a new miniboss has been added - Capt. Dreadbones. All air and ground lanes are the same as normal play. This incursion assigns no mutators. All normal minibosses can spawn, which can include Capt. Dreadbones as well. One miniboss will spawn from the Southeast corner on Waves 2 and 3, and then in addition another will spawn on Wave 4 from the central Southwest point (2 total), and on Wave 5 a third will spawn from the top drawbridge in the Southwest as well (3 total). What makes this map unique is how Capt. Dreadbones spawns. At the beginning of Wave 1, Capt. Dreadbones will spawn randomly as a normal miniboss on the map from one of about 12 designated locations, see the below map (pic coming soon). This does not include any of the lane schedules and cannot be seen on the enemy list there. Once defeated, he will respawn after some time passes. He will continue to respawn as long as the wave continues. To end a wave, defeat all enemies on the map, which does not include Capt. Dreadbones. When the last enemy is defeated, Capt. Dreadbones will vanish. Be aware that if Capt. Dreadbones also spawns from a scheduled lane as a miniboss (as shown on the enemy list for that lane), then that version of Capt. Dreadbones must be defeated as well to end the wave. The rate that Capt. Dreadbones respawns after being defeated will increase as the wave count increases. It is not necessary to defeat the respawning Capt. Dreadbones on any wave. One respawn point is on the deck of the ship, right next to the main mast and right next to the main Crystals, so be ready to defend that possibility. During each wave, right before Capt. Dreadbones spawns, a red "X" will show up on the ground (but not on the map or any screen icon) denoting that he is about to appear. That red "X" may still be on the ground at the end of a wave, but that does not mean that Capt. Dreadbones will respawn from that point in the next wave. No icon on the screen or minimap appears before he spawns, and when he does spawn his miniboss and screen icon will be visible as a normal miniboss would appear. Occasionally, Capt. Dreadbones can double spawn at once from the same location. <u>Victory Condition</u> - on Wave 5, all main crystal cores still have health, and all enemies are defeated - which does not include the respawning version(s) of Capt. Dreadbones. <u>Special Weapon</u> - '''The Last Word''' (medium axe for the [[Barbarian]]). <u>Special Weapon MOD</u> - '''Captain's Fury''', "Increases Barbarian's Hero Damage by XXXX and increases Hero Damage in and AOE around the Barbarian by XXXX." Chaos 7 values [6479-9089, 6480-9090]. The AOE has very limited range directly around the Barbarian.
