Class Rating is the speed at which each character ranks up an individual class, so the lower their Class Rating, the slower it takes for them to rank up the class.
Incursor is the default class of Alexandria, a hero in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. To unlock this class and equip it to your main characters, you must first complete their Hero Quest: Her Reasons.
After you unlock this class, it will have a rank cap of 10, so you are unable to upgrade its Arts and skills further than that rank. To break the rank cap and extend the limit up to Rank 20, you must first complete the quest Inescapable Past.
Recommended Characters | |
---|---|
Noah | Sena |
Both Noah and Sena make excellent Incursors due to their high Attack stats. Though Noah has a low Class Rating with Incursor, his high Attack and usefulness in Chain Attacks make him worth the wait to unlock and rank up.
Art | Attack Type | AoE | Base Effect |
---|---|---|---|
Glitter Stream | Physical Attack | One Target | Inflicts Break on enemy when attacking from side. |
Sidewinder | Physical Attack | Frontward AOE | Increases Critical Rate by 50% when from back. |
Aerial Slash | Physical Attack | One Target | Grants high Critical Rate; also evades enemy attacks while Art is active. |
Since Incursors rely on critical hits to deal most of their damage to enemies, the best Arts for the class are those that increase its Critical Rate or damage. Glitter Stream also works well to inflict Break and begin combos that are necessary for your Talent Art.
Art | Base Effect | Class Rank |
---|---|---|
Shadow Eye | Aggro Halved / Atk. Up |
Rank 10 |
Cross Impact | Power Charge on hit |
Rank 10 |
Demolition | AOE / Pierce (%) |
Rank 1 |
Shadow Eye and Cross Impact both work well with Incursor due to the buffs that they grant. Demolition is also useful since it can ignore defenses, but if you plan on equipping it along with the two other Positional Combat Arts of the class, then you'll also need use the Positioning Pro skill.
Art | Base Effect | Class Rank |
---|---|---|
Overclock Buster | Dazed Up |
Rank 20 |
Though Supreme Sword is a powerful Master Art, if the Arts of your other squad members make it easier to Daze enemies rather than Launch them, then you can instead replace it with Overclock Buster.
Skill | Effect | Class Rank |
---|---|---|
Cypher Edge | Boosts Critical Rate by 10%. |
Rank 5 |
Fighting Prowess | Boosts damage dealt by physical Arts by 30%. |
Rank 5 |
Critical Strike | Increases critical hit damage bonus by 30 percentage points. |
Rank 5 |
The Master Skills above make Incursors more deadly by increasing their Critical Rate or damage. If you plan on using more than 3 Positional Arts in your palette, then you can swap out one of these skills for Positioning Pro.
Skill | Effect | Class Rank |
---|---|---|
Frenzied Combo | On critical hit, recharge Art used by 20%. |
Rank 15 |
Frenzied Combo comes in handy since many of the Arts in the class take a while to recharge. It is best to replace Fighting Prowess from the original line-up to make the build solely focused on Critical Hit damage.
Boosted Critical Rate | Increased Attack Damage | Extended Launch Duration |
---|---|---|
Ice Headband | Silver Belt | Soldier Ring |
The best accessories for Incursor builds are those that increase either its Attack damage or Critical Rate since these two stat points are what Incursors rely on the most to inflict a significant amount of damage to enemies.
Extending the Launch duration of enemies is also beneficial since it gives you a wider window of opportunity to use your Talent Art.
Increases Critical Hit Damage | Shortens Auto-Attack Intervals | Reduced Aggro from Arts |
---|---|---|
Analyze Weakness | Steady Striker | Disperse Bloodlust |
Increasing the Critical Hit Damage of Incursor Attacks is the most important Gem for the class. Shortening their attack intervals and reducing their aggro are two other useful gems that make them better overall Attackers.
