Category:Incursion

Introduced in Seekers of Adoulin, Incursions are high level, instanced end-game battle events. The primary rewards from Incursions are unique weapons and armor as well augmented JSE capes. Adventurers delve into the nests of Velkks fighting off the hordes within to obtain the caboodle of treasure amassed in coffers by the Velkk themselves. Incursion was introduced in the September 9, 2014 update [1]

Getting Started

Eligibility Requirements

In order to participate, players must satisfy the following:

• Seekers of Adoulin expansion pack installed and registered
• 3-18 alliance members at level 95 or above
• Alliance leader must possess a Velkk fetish key item
• Monster HP within Incursion will increase proportionally for each player over six.

Velkk fetish is obtained by defeating Velkk in Marjami Ravine.

Incursion is entered via the Weathered Canvas (I-11) in Marjami Ravine.

• To get there use Biv 2 then travel SE and go through the long cave with Riverscum mobs at J-10.

Content Level

Incursion starts at content level 123 and may be raised up to 143.

Raising the content level requires obtaining the key items from each of the Velkk Notorious Monsters within Incursion. Once all six key items have been obtained you may speak with Grrk-Frut the Charlatan (I-11) in Marjami Ravine to exchange all six key items for a one level increase in your Incursion entry.

Incursion level may be lowered (to a minimum of 123) by speaking with Veldeth (L-7) at the frontier station in Marjami Ravine.

Progression

Entering Incursion will take you to Cirdas Caverns (U). There is a 45 minute time limit. Within there are many normal enemies and six Velkk notorious monsters to defeat. The NMs will drop key items to each player present for its defeat. There are 6 key items:

• Ymmr-Ulvid's necklace
• Ignor-Mnt's bracelet
• Durs-Vike's earring
• Tryl-Wuj's belt
• Pair of Liij-Vok's gloves
• Gramk-Droog's circlet

Once you have obtained an NM's key item you will be able to use the Rusted Transmitter to warp near to that NM. The transmitters may also be used to warp back to the entry position. If an alliance lead has a key item then the entire alliance will be able to use the Rusted Transmitter to warp to that NM even if the party member doesn't have that key item.

• Note: There's currently a glitch that may cause players to receive a black screen when being buffed while using the Rusted Transmitter. Refrain from buffing your allies around the Rusted Transmitter.

Raising the level of Incursion requires all six key items from the Incursion notorious monsters. Speaking with Grrk-Frut the Charlatan (I-11) next to the Weathered Canvas will allow you to trade in your key items for a level increase of Incursion when you enter. Only the alliance leader needs to turn in the key items to increase the level. If a party member has increased their Incursion level and participates in an Incursion at a lower content level they will not obtain key items from the NMs. Raising the Incursion level will increase the Capacity Points earned as well as the the quality of the rewards and quantity of coffer drops.

• Warps from the Rusted Transmitter will be lost and need to be re-obtained regardless if other members have the key items or not.

Monsters

Inside, monsters have a large aggressive range of 30 yalms. Notorious Monsters helpers are non-aggressive. Nothing links.

Each Notorious Monster has its own unique behavior, a one-hour, and two lesser notorious monster assistants, known as adherents, attached to them which also have a one-hour based on their varying jobs and provide a permanent bonus to the named Notorious Monster.

The following Notorious Monsters are contained within Incursion. Reference their pages for specific information:

• Ymmr-Ulvid Gloomlight (MNK, THF, DRK, BST capes)
• Ignor-Mnt Stealthslayer (WAR, PLD, DNC, RUN capes)
• Durs-Vike Deathspell (BLM, RDM, BRD, COR, GEO capes)
• Tryl-Wuj Wingrip (RNG, SAM, NIN, DRG capes)
• Liij-Vok Waaxwane (WHM, SMN, BLU, PUP, SCH capes)
• Brash Gramk-Droog (Chance at all capes, Content lvl 123-127 only)
• Gramk-Droog (Chance at all capes, Content lvl 128-132 only)
• Vanquisher Gramk-Droog (Chance at all capes, Content level 133+ only)

• Brawny Adherent Grants the NM an Attack Bonus.
• Steadfast Adherent Grants the NM an Physical Defense Bonus.
• Occult Adherent Grants the NM an Evasion Bonus.
• Hexbreaking Adherent Grants the NM an Magic Attack Bonus.
• Furtive Adherent Grants the NM an Magic Defense Bonus.
• Insidious Adherent Grants the NM an Magic Evasion Bonus.
• Fleet Adherent Grants the NM Haste.
• Honed Adherent Grants the NM Fast Cast.
• Martial Adherent Grants the NM Regain.

Rewards

All enemies within Incursion have a chance to drop one or more Velkk Coffers. These coffers do not go in to the treasure pool but instead are put directly into each players' inventory. Conditions for receiving a coffers vary.

• Entering at an increased difficulty will increase the number of coffers which drop by one per mob per level above the original level of 123.
• Everyone participating in the event will receive the coffer at once into their inventory.
• Treasure hunter has a noticable effect on the drop rate for receiving coffers.

Notorious monsters will drop coffers with their name on it. Named coffers have a higher quality reward than grand coffers.

To obtain your rewards you must use the coffers like other consumables (food, clusters, etc.). For Grand Velkk Coffers, rewards vary from small amounts of gil to drops off the monster types found within the zone to Mecistopins Mantle, which can be augmented with up to +50% Capacity Points. Boss coffers also can contain these items (except for Mecistopins Mantle), but can also contain spell scrolls, NM-specific weapons, armor, and augmented JSE Capes. The JSE Capes from the boss coffers are augmented with stats specific for the job automatically when the coffer is opened, and the reported augments and ranges can be found on the JSE Capes page. If a boss coffer selects a rare item that you already have one of, it will instead give you gil. The "Grand" boss coffers are also used to obtain pop items for Tier II Geas Fete monsters in Reisenjima.
