Incursions Updates: Enter Castle Doom, Play Solo, and More!

Summoners!

Do you dare enter the halls of Castle Doom?

This October, Incursions will be getting a host of updates that we’re excited to share with you! Here’s what you can expect:

Ultron has been dethroned! Doctor Doom and Iron Man (Infamous) will be the new bosses of the mode, along with a legion of Doom Bots!
For the first time ever, you can play Incursions either with a friend or solo! One of the most requested additions to Incursions has been the ability to play the mode by yourself, and we’re eager to give you all the opportunity to conquer Sectors on your own.
For those seeking a new challenge - test your might in a brand new Difficulty level! Sector 9 promises just that for even the strongest of Summoners!
New Nodes and Encounters! New Champions (including some released this year) and Nodes await to challenge you and your Champions!
Updated Rewards and Incursions Store! Looking for 6 Star Incursions crystals? They’ll be coming your way soon, along with other updates to the store!

Details on all of these will be released in October, so keep an eye out!

To make this update, we’ll need to take Incursions offline for an extended period of time.

Incursions will be taken into Maintenance on September 28th
New Incursions will come online on October 13th

We can’t wait to share more information with you all, and for you all to try out the new and improved Incursions experience!

Being able to run incursions solo is a massive win!

Hopefully the rewards update is a good one too

TheLightBringer

1 question please, does running it with a friend and solo have different rewards or it's either that or this?

Tijjy007

Kabam can you confirm now if the acquisition of artifacts will change? If i grind them out now to get the new rewards is it going to the same amount of time after the update? I and i imagine alot of others would love to be able to prep now.

Details are coming soon, but you can grind Artifacts now and still be able to use them if you'd like!

Solo mode sounds awesome.

6* incursion crystal finally

The solo mode is actually pretty nice. I won't need to wait for someone else to move or having the pressure to either play well or to just not back out of the mode to do something.

I can assume we can still play 1/2 rooms and back out for a bit to play AQ or something else, and then come back at a later time

Maybe I'll finally start playing incursions again! Haven't played them in over a year. Couldn't stand getting paired with someone that either bails or couldn't keep up. Solo is a huge win!

Finally will not have to depend on anyone's skill for incursion

Rasilover

Incursions finally good?!

AmaadAkira

Some good news finally. Hopefully the store is worthwhile for paragon players.

altavista

Hopefully, there will also be an increase to the maximum cap on artifacts as well.

Nemsa_M4n

Will Sectors 7, 8, and 9 be available for Solo as well?

I'm really curious how "solo mode" will be different than say "more difficult daily catalyst quests".

2 suggestions I have beyond that which is listed in the announcement:

1: shrink the champion refresh timers. 6 stars are way too long. 48 hours max, ideally less.
2: consider the value of the rewards and the cost of potions/revives. Revives are never found on paths, and are very expensive today compared to the rewards. They may even be more expensive than war (don't feel like doing math... lets just say its close). So long as there is a cap on artifacts/rewards similar to today and "extra runs" really don't grant anything... these items should be much, much cheaper, and have revives on the paths, with health potions of sizes commensurate to the champions likely to be used for the zone available: say 1 revive every 7 rooms, I think the health potion drop rate is fine, just need higher level).

TheLegend27

Been asking and hoping for solo incursions basically since they were introduced to the game. Probably the best bit of news I've seen in a long time, especially because I don't consider BGs good solo content or even solo content at all. This might be the first announcement in over a year that is actually exciting to me.

How much money will it cost me to play this?

1x Video of you dancing the Macarena. I will also accept Y2K-era e-cards or a picture of a kitten in a cowboy hat.

Kabam Miike

If you are disabling incursions for that period of time from 9/28 - 10/13, you should consider taking the zone clearing daily objective out of the rotation during that time frame. Wouldn't seem right for someone to have that objective proc and have to potentially waste units changing it since it would be unable to be done during that time span.

Good call out. Gave the team a heads up about this.
