Vasca Kavat

Vasca Kavat
Introduced	Update 26.0 (2019-10-31)

CODEX

A drinker of life, this Kavat prowls the Plains upon dusk.

 Draining Bite
Deals 100/200/300/400 damage and restores 2/5/7/10% health to the kavat.

 Transfusion
When its master is bleeding out, the Vasca Kavat sacrifices 80/60/40/20% of its health to raise them.

Acquisition

Vasca Kavats are not generated randomly from the Orbiter's Incubator. Instead, the player must have their owned Kavat become infected by wild Vasca that appear at nighttime in the Plains of Eidolon. The wild Vasca can also be lured out via Conservation where Master Teasonai sells the Vasca Kavat Lure for 3000 Standing 3000 and Vasca Kavat Pheromone Oota for 200 Standing 200. Once the player's Kavat is attacked by the wild Vasca, it will become infected, indicated by a red overlay. The player must then take their infected Kavat back to the Orbiter's Incubator and use a Genetic Code Template on them, acquiring a Vasca Imprint while also removing the virus. Two Vasca Imprints are needed to create a Vasca Kavat, and unlike imprinting other Kavat or Kubrow breeds, Vasca Imprints are guaranteed to result in a Vasca Kavat.

An Infected Kavat

Note that the infection will be removed as the imprint is created; as such, the infection process needs to be repeated to get the required 2 imprints. This process can be streamlined by having two Kavats and infecting them both before creating the imprints, bypassing the wait for the first imprint creation before obtaining the second infection.

To remove the infection without using a Genetic Code Template, the player must have a Vasca Curative, sold by Master Teasonai for 500 Standing 500. It is a gear item which must be equipped and used in a mission.

Alternatively, the Vasca Kavat Starter Kit can be bought from the Market for 105 Platinum 105. This bundle includes two Vasca Imprints, the 10 Kavat Genetic Codes, Incubator Power Core and Stasis slot required for a new incubation, as well as an extra Genetic Code Template and 6 DNA Stabilizers.

Bugs

• Possible bug: The infection or its visuals can become stuck even after imprinting, becoming impossible to remove. (seems to bix fixed with Hotfix 26.0.7)
