Tearing through the fabric of reality itself, the Demons seek a new home on Aelion by any means necessary.
Invasions are a large-scale activity available to all players who have received access to their Divine Form. Characters who successfully increase their rankings in the Laboratory for each invading army will be provided access to new Invasion-specific adventures. While it is not possible to “lose” an Invasion that does not have an accompanying Avatar, the event will still require commitment from the players to reach their maximum potential: Equipment can be improved, new Symbols will be available, stats can be drastically increased, and you’ll even learn who your worthiest companions truly are!
While an Invasion is active, two special assignments will be available to your Adepts every 8 hours. The first will provide Gifts, bring new followers to your Order, and award 12 Faith Points to those that have unlocked their Divine Form. The second awards 10 Victor’s Medals which functions as a special currency used to buy various goods in the Invasion section of the marketplace.
Your loyal Adepts are not the only ones who will be busy with special assignments – during the Invasion you will have special tasks waiting for you as well! Theses missions will appear on the Divine Observatory globe and cycle every day to provide new opportunities depending on your level of research within the Laboratory.
- Rank 1 – Abandoned Fort Garune & Settlement Capture
- Rank 4 – Lending a Hand
- Rank 6 – Crashed Aircraft
- Rank 10 – Demon Invasion
Completing any of the Invasion Adventures will net you special rewards for the maximum rating obtained!
- C Rating – 10 Sparks of Divinity
- B Rating – Reliquary containing Sparks of Insight
- A Rating – 10 Sparks of Divinity
- S Rating – A uniquely colored costume obtainable only from that adventure!
Please note that these rewards can only be obtained once!
Participation in Invasion Adventures will earn the player Eidoses which can be used in the aforementioned Laboratory to expand their Knowledge of the Demons. This Knowledge, in turn, can be used on one half of the Demon Atlas to increase your Resistances, increase general statistics, and further empower your Invasion symbols or talents.
Players who do not possess sufficient Rankings or the Divine Form can still participate in Aelion’s defense by visiting Adventures that are inhabited by Demons such as:
- Port Usuni
- Artonis Hollow
- Kuat-Lien Station
Completion of these Adventures will result in obtaining Tokens for that invading Army which, in turn, will unlock Sparks required for expanding one side of Demon Atlas. The more tokens obtained, the more Sparks will be rewarded. Your current progression can be viewed at any time by selecting the Invasion’s marker in the Divine Observatory.
Some of the most notable nodes available in the Demon Atlas include:
- “Deliberate Destruction” – Crushing blow is increased by 2% per level of this Symbol
- “Emanation of Power” – Your Support aura gives allies 2% more Might per level of this Symbol
- “Astral Essence” – Using an attack skill accumulates an effect that increases Might, Strength, Luck, Valor, and Spirit by 0.25% per level of this Symbol but increases damage received by 1%.
- “Phase Shift” – Can reduce incoming damage by 15% and has a chance of restoring a dash charge if you receive damage that exceeds 10% of your maximum health.
- “The Might of Other Worlds” – Increases Might Efficiency by 3% per level of this Symbol
Additionally, upon completion of the first Invasion related activity players will be placed into an active Operation. Operations will provide players both personal goals as well as total progression goals for all players taking part. Meeting these goals allows the player to gain extra rewards and potentially move to a higher tiered operation!
Good luck!
