Dread Incarnon Genesis is an item that is used to add Incarnon upgrades to the  Dread.

Acquisition

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

Incarnon Genesis

Evolutions

• Installing the Dread Incarnon Genesis requires 20  Pathos Clamps, 60  Rune Marrow and 60  Tasoma Extract.
• 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 charges.
• Sacrifice silence for increased projectile size and  Heat Damage.
  • Incarnon Form fires a wide projectile that deals  Heat damage, with increased base damage, Critical Multiplier, and Status Chance, and infinite body Punch Through. However, it no longer deals  Puncture damage, has a headshot multiplier of 1x, has slightly slower charge time, can no longer be fired from a partial charge, and is no longer silent.
• 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 weakpoint hits and then pressing the Alternate Fire button. 4 weakpoints 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.
  • Weakpoints on corpses or Invulnerable targets do not build charges.
  • Individual Multishot bullets can build charges.
• Instead of drawing ammunition from its reserves, the Dread's Incarnon Form uses a separate "magazine" with each charge producing 5 rounds to a maximum of 20. Once all ammunition is expended, the Dread 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.
