Vasto Incarnon Genesis (2024)

Vasto Incarnon Genesis is an item that is used to add Incarnon upgrades to the Vasto or VastoPrime.

Acquisition[]

• Upon completion of The Duviri Paradox and Angels of the Zariman, and unlocking The Steel Path, players can earn VastoIncarnonGenesis from The Circuit's Steel Path to place on their Vasto with the help of Cavalero in the Chrysalith. This Incarnon Genesis form grants it evolutions to a transformation and newfound strength.

Evolutions[]

• Installing the Vasto Incarnon Genesis requires 20 PathosClamps, 70 YaoShrub, and 150 SaggenPearl.
• When installed, the first Evolution tier is unlocked. The following Evolution tiers, their requirements for unlocking them, and their related perks, are shown below;
  • Each challenge additionally grants 5,000 affinity to the weapon, affected by Affinity Boosters.

Evolution I[]

• Headshots charge Incarnon Transmutation; Alt Fire transmutes. Switching back will expend any remaining charge.
• Rapidly empty a full magazine.
  • Incarnon Form transforms into a 6-round burst with increased Critical Chance and Critical Multiplier. However, it has reduced base damage and Status Chance per bullet, has significantly higher Recoil, and cannot Zoom.
• Mode switching is not instantaneous and has an animation equal to the weapon's reload speed.
• Incarnon Form is activated by filling the Incarnon Transmutation gauge that appears under the reticule by achieving headshots and then pressing the Alternate Fire button. 8 headshots will completely fill the gauge. A full gauge is not required to activate Incarnon Form.
  • Charges generate only on headshots, and not other weakspots, such as the backpacks of most MOA variants. Similarly, shooting weakspots generated by either Sonar or DetectVulnerability in places other than heads will have no effect either.
  • Headshots on corpses do not build charges.
  • Individual Multishot bullets can build charges.
• Instead of drawing ammunition from its reserves, the Vasto's Incarnon Form uses a separate "magazine" with each charge producing 3 rounds to a maximum of 24. Once all ammunition is expended, the Vasto reverts to its normal form.
  • Due to its 6-round burst, Incarnon Form expends all its ammo after a maximum of 4 bursts from a full gauge.
    • Bursts can be interrupted by rolling to avoid wasting ammo.
  • Incarnon Form's magazine is not affected by mods.
  • Incarnon Form is not affected by Ammo Efficiency (such as EnergizedMunitions).
  • Charges and Incarnon Form persists through all activities, such as holstering, bleedout, or being disarmed. However, charges and Incarnon Form are removed upon death.
• Swapping to and from Incarnon Form will fully reload the normal form's magazine.
