Incursions

(Redirected from Incursion)
Jump to: navigation, search

The Incursion game mode contains special versions of standard maps with additional unique challenges and Mutators. Completing a Chaos tier in Expeditions for the first time will unlock a set of Incursion maps each time. Minibosses will drop less gear upon defeat, but and will drop more than normal amounts of pet consumables and eggs. On all Incursion maps, the 'Replay from Wave' function is disabled.

Upon completing the Incursion you permanently unlock an Incursion weapon, which can be purchased from the Wayfarer for 500 Defender Medals. Most Incursion weapons have a chance to drop in the victory chest on the Incursion map that unlocked it, each time it is played. Incursion weapons are Legendary rarity weapons that come with a unique locked Mod that can only be rerolled and cannot be replaced or transferred to other weapons.

On some Incursion maps, the enemies in a lane and the miniboss will randomly be assigned Mutators from the following pool of six possible choices: 1) Speedy, +15% movement speed; 2) Trollblood, +3% HP regen every 5 sec; 3) Tenacious, +35% crowd control resilience; 4) Healthy, +15% health; 5) Grounded, cannot be knocked up; 6) Mighty, +15% attack damage.

Prime Incursions

Prime Incursions Icon.png

What are they?

Prime Incursions are the next tier of Incursions after Chaos VII Incursions. This tier consists of harder versions of all the current Incursions from previous Chaos difficulty tiers, along with a few maps from Adventures, like Wyvern's Den, and Harbinger's Warship. Some of these incursions have a boss fight at the end. The Prime Incursions are divided into seven groups with each group getting harder than the last.

Rewards

1. Victory Chest loot

Aside from the Victory Chest having a chance to drop the incursion's respective special weapon, the chest also has a chance to drop one more item:

Prime Weapons - These weapons with unique new models drops with Chaos VIII or Chaos IX stats fully upgraded, depending on which difficulty you do. Furthermore, they are also rolled with curated "fan-favorites" shot/swing types and M.O.D.S. Each Prime group would have a pool of 4 different prime weapons.

2. Hyper Shards -

Each Prime Incursion group cleared for the first time would reward a Hyper Shard. And after clearing all seven groups, you'll earn the seventh Hyper Shard as a capstone reward. These hyper shards are identical to the ones earned from Mastery, meaning you'll be able to have two sets of them when you complete both Mastery and Prime Incursions.
