Acquisition[]
The Dex Sybaris was released in commemoration of WARFRAME's 3rd Year Anniversary. It is obtainable through yearly anniversaries in March via Alerts, complete with a free weapon slot and a pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.
Incarnon Genesis[]
- Upon completion of The Duviri Paradox and Angels of the Zariman, and unlocking The Steel Path, players can earn Sybaris Incarnon Genesis from The Circuit's Steel Path to place on their Sybaris with the help of Cavalero in the Chrysalith. This Incarnon Genesis form grants it evolutions to a transformation and newfound strength.
Evolution[]
This section is transcluded from Sybaris Incarnon Genesis § Evolutions. To change it, please edit the transcluded page.
- Installing the Sybaris Incarnon Genesis requires 20 Pathos Clamps, 150 Saggen Pearl, and 70 Ueymag.
- 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[]
- Weakpoint hits charge Incarnon Transmutation; Alt Fire transmutes. Switching back will expend any remaining charge.
- Fire 4-round bursts and gain Blast Status
- Burst count is increased to 4 and shots have guaranteed Blast proc. Damage, Critical Multiplier, and Status Chance are increased, but Critical Chance is reduced.
- 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 reticle by achieving weakpoint hits and then pressing the Alternate Fire button. 25 weakpoints (or 13 bursts) will completely fill the gauge. A full gauge is not required to activate Incarnon Form.
- Charges do not generate on the backpacks of most MOA variants, or vulnerability spots generated by Sonar or Detect Vulnerability in places other than actual weakpoints.
- Weakspots on corpses or Invulnerable targets do not build charges.
- Individual Multishot bullets can build charges.
- Instead of drawing ammunition from its reserves, the Sybaris's Incarnon Form uses a separate "magazine" with each charge producing 8 rounds to a maximum of 200. Once all ammunition is expended, the Sybaris reverts to its normal form.
- Incarnon Form's magazine is not affected by mods.
- Incarnon Form is not affected by Ammo Efficiency (such as Energized Munitions).
- 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.
