Operation: Belly of the Beast is a limited-time event where Parvos Granum seeks to acquire the Jade Light from File:JadeIcon272.pngJade's remains. Ordis seeks to stop this and tasks players to fight back on the Ascension game mode.

The event will last between June 18, 2024 11:30AM ET to July 18, 2024 11:30AM ET on all platforms.

Event Synopsis[]

Parvos Granum is attempting to harvest VolatileMotes to make his own Jade Light Eximus army, and only you and Ordis stand in his way. With Ordis’ help, you can commandeer the Mote Collectors and put an end to Parvos’ plans.

How to Start[]

After completing the Jade Shadows quest, the Ascension game mode will be available on Brutus, Uranus. The Operation will appear on the World State window.

What You Need To Know[]

While Operation: Belly of the Beast is live, players will have access to special nodes that allow them to take on Parvo’s forces. In these missions, all Eximus units you face will be empowered by Jade Light - meaning the only Eximus units that will spawn are Jade Light Eximus. You can help Ordis in his mission to stop Parvos in one of three ways:

  • Operation Variant of Brutus (Uranus)
  • Operation Alerts
  • Stalker Joins the Fray

Operation Variant of Brutus (Uranus)[]

In traditional Operation style, the new Brutus node on Uranus has its own Operation variant. Play Ascension as you know it, but with all Eximus units spawning in as Jade Light Eximus. On top of the regular Ascension rewards, each Operation mission will award players with 4-6 Volatile Motes (8-10 on Steel Path), which can be traded for rewards via Ordis in the Larunda Relay.

Summoning a Sister of Parvos will also earn players an extra 1-3 Volatile Motes (2-4 on Steel Path), as well as her usual drops.

Operation Alerts[]

In addition to the Brutus node on Uranus, timed Operation Alerts will appear across the solar system that will also reward players with 10 Volatile Motes (15 on Steel Path). These non-Ascension missions will have normal gameplay, but will feature increased Eximus Spawns, and will only feature Jade Light type Eximus. Look for these time-limited Alerts appearing every half hour or so as an alternative method to earning Volatile Motes.

Stalker Joins the Fray[]

Visiting Ordis in the Larunda Relay not only allows you to earn Operation Rewards, but also lets you call on an old foe to assist in your efforts. In speaking to Ordis, selecting the “A Shared Purpose?” option will allow you to join another Squad’s mission as Stalker. Doing so will reward you with the usual mission rewards, but at risk of losing them all should you be downed.

Rewards[]

No Operation is complete without rewards, and Ordis has collected quite a few offerings for you to choose from. Ordis can be found in the Larunda Relay in the Navigation Room, where he will trade Volatile Motes for rewards.

Community Progress[]

Belly of the Beast comes with a Community Progress segment, tracking the total Volatile Motes collected by players. As the total number of Volatile Motes collected ticks up, progress is made towards a new variant of the Jade Light Ephemera, unlocking it for purchase for all players at Ordis in the Larunda Relay.

Commit Volatile Motes[]

Ordis is carrying a vast array of items in exchange for Volatile Motes.

Clan Contributions[]

Ordis is also carrying additional stock for Tenno who are in a Clan.

Clan Trophies[]

Volatile Motes collected by Clan members throughout the Operation will earn your Clan Trophies!

Like previous Operations, Clan Trophies are available in Terracotta, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. The amount of Volatile Motes required to unlock each tier are as follows:
