Overview

Incarnate Hybrid Blank.png

The Hybrid Slot is one of the fourth "levels" of the Incarnate System, which launched with Issue 19. The Hybrid Slot does not include a Level Shift or Incarnate Shift.

Hybrid Slot Benefits

The Hybrid Slot is unlocked by defeating foes once the Lore and Destiny Slots are unlocked.

Once the Hybrid Slot is unlocked, the character can fill the Hybrid Slot with a Hybrid Slot Ability which unlocks various ways to either shore up a character's weaknesses or make their strengths even stronger, via four trees: Assault, Control, Melee, and Support.

The Unlocking Process

The normal course of unlocking the Hybrid Slot follows this general plan:

  1. Accumulate 3,375,000 Advanced Psychic Incarnate Experience to unlock the Hybrid Slot.
  2. Decide which Hybrid Slot Ability works best for a given character. That will determine which Incarnate Components are required to craft.
  3. Run Incarnate Trials, endgame Task Forces, or missions in Dark Astoria to get certain Incarnate Components. Alternatively, accumulate enough Incarnate Threads from defeating level 50+ foes in order to craft the Components necessary.
  4. Craft and equip the Hybrid Slot Ability.
  5. The character can now work towards another or a higher tiered Hybrid Slot Ability.

In some cases, a character may accumulate enough Components to craft a Hybrid Ability before accumulating enough Incarnate Experience to unlock the Hybrid Slot. Crafting Hybrid Abilities and unlocking the Hybrid Slot can be done in any order, and the Ability can be placed in the Slot once both are available.

Hybrid Slot Mechanics

  • Characters can switch between Hybrid Abilities by simply equipping a new ability. The old ability is not lost, but simply switched out. There is a 5 minute cool down between equips. Also, equipping an ability is prohibited by being in combat and may require additional cool down time or leaving the mission to equip.
    • The Hybrid Ability cannot be slotted or changed in Ouroboros.
  • Higher-tier Hybrid Abilities consume a lower tier ability when crafted. Characters can have several higher-tiered abilities, but if they're in the same 'tree', then they'll have to re-craft the lower tiered ability again for each higher-tiered ability they want to have.
