Hello Everyone,
We've pushed a small hotfix live to the Invasion Mode, read on for more details and a general guide to Invasion Mode.
We wanted to take a moment to offer a more in-depth explanation as to how the Invasion Mode works.
Each node represents a level with predetermined modifiers, a difficulty and a level of Chaos Corruption. The in-game difficulty level does not affect Invasion missions.
When you play Invasion, you can choose it's "Rank". The higher it is, the more resistant enemies will be (+5% per rank), hit harder (+5% damage per rank) and your chances at finding better quality items will increase (+10% Loot Quality per Rank).
Each Invasion mission has a percentage of Chaos Corruption, this represented the life that your character loses each second. You can reduce this by unlocking certain nodes on the Invasion tree.
In multiplayer, we use the invasion card of the player who starts a mission. Progression will be saved for other players if they have access to this mission on their tree. A warning message will display if you do not meet the requirements for your progress to be recorded.
Completed missions at higher Ranks will automatically unlock the same nodes at lower ranks. For example, if you unlock a mission at Rank 5, it will also be available for ranks 1-4. However, it will not be available for Ranks 6 and above. You can change rank at any time without losing your progress at your current rank.
When you clear a Rank completely (100%) you unlock the next 10 ranks. So for example, if you clear Rank 7, you will unlock Ranks 8 to 18. At first you only have access to Ranks 1 to 10.
What's the highest Rank you will clear completely? In the next update this Rank will be displayed on your character icon in Multiplayer.
Note: Relic Hunt mode, with its bonus to item quality, remains the best way to farm higher quality items (T4 Red and T5 Green). If a node is too difficult, perhaps you should gear up in Relic Hunt mode.
