Incursion

Using this item on a completed Map on the Atlas of Worlds will cause several connected maps to activate a quest chain for the named Master. Speaking to the NPC will provide a dialogue snippet that does not change, as well as an option to open the marked Map. This map can be modified with currency, fossils, and Delirium orbs, and can become corrupted. The map does not use the player's Atlas Passive Skill Tree or Sextants as it is considered opened by an NPC, similar to Kirac Missions. It cannot be modified with fragments. Each successive map opened will have modifiers that increase in difficulty.

List of Atlas Memories

Introduced Atlas Memories as a new core game mechanic. In maps, you’ll very rarely find a Memory item, which represents a set of memories that an NPC has about their past. Each successive map in the sequence gets more difficult and rewarding as the memories intensify.

Atlas Memories offer a way to explore endgame content and earn very valuable rewards without having to specialise your Atlas Tree for it. In high-level maps, you’ll very rarely find a Memory item, which represents a set of memories that Alva, Niko, Einhar or Kirac has. They will provide a sequence of maps for you to explore as you relive the events of their past. These highly challenging and rewarding Memories can either be applied to your Atlas or traded to other players.
