Remote alien worlds can be difficult to navigate. Use this friendly guide to get all the details on Odyssey: Extraction before you go in.

Characters

Pick from Yasuo, Jinx, Sona, Malphite, and Ziggs. Each has different augment paths and strengthened passive abilities.

YASUO

The crew’s captain provides AD damage, crowd control, and projectile defense via his windwall. Way of the Wanderer shields for twice the amount and twice the duration. Yasuo additionally gains:

  • +20% attack speed
  • +15 Mana Regen per second

MALPHITE

Malphite provides defense, enemy disruption, and rock-solid backup damage. Granite Shield’s cooldown does not reset during combat, but basic attacks and spell hits lower it by [1 | 2] seconds respectively. Malphite additionally gains:

  • +10% healing for all damage dealt (33% effectiveness for AoE)
  • +50% ultimate cooldown reduction
  • +10% ability power
  • +15 Mana Regen per second

Augments

This is the best part.

Each time you play the mode, you can earn augments for the characters. You keep these for the duration of the event and equip them between games. They’re super powerful and let you do crazy stuff.

You unlock extra augment slots as you complete missions over time. You can get up to 5 slots and 15 augments per character. There are some crazy builds, so experiment with the augments you find.

*There will be a “catch-up” augment bundle available from September 17 – October 8. The bundle will include ALL augments for either 600 RP or 10,000 BE, but each augment owned will reduce the RP price by 8, down to a minimum price of 215 RP.


Summoner Spells

Only choice here is which key you’re putting them on. Here’s what you get to work with:

Keep your arms and legs inside the wormhole.


WARP

Turn briefly untargetable and invulnerable as you dash towards a location. Holds 3 charges.

15 second Ammo Recharge


Wake up, dummy!


RESUSCITATE

Revive a fallen crewmate by standing next to them for 2 seconds. Exiting the area does not consume your cooldown.

100 second Cooldown


Friendlies

Little buddies.

ORA BOT

Cute little robot that Ziggs made. He helps you gather Ora and lets you buy things between rounds. A good buddy all-around.

PORTAL ZONE

When you clear an area, Ora Bot opens this zone up. Stand in it to go to the next room. It goes faster when there’s more people in it.


Powerups and Collectibles

This is the stuff you want to see.

ORA

This is what we’re after. Collect enough to charge the Ora Bot and we can move to the next area. They drop from enemies and Ora Plants.

ORA PLANT

Smack ‘em if you see ‘em, because they drop a bunch of Ora and they can wither away if left alone.

LIFEBEAD

Popping these heals everyone up to full health and mana. They disappear after a while.

GOLDBEAD

How do they have money? Take them out to give everyone an extra 500 gold.

FOCUSBEAD

Whoever takes this out gets a massive buff with invulnerability and cooldown reduction. Let your ult fly.

RELICBEAD

A rare variation that permanently unlocks an augment for everybody. Don’t let them get away!

ORABEAD

You can’t miss these, cuz they’re huge and drop a bunch of ora. Keep the damage on them and you’ll get to the next area in no time.


Hazards

This planet isn’t the most stable thing in the universe. Here’s what can go wrong on the surface:

WALLS

Destructible terrain that blocks your way. Take it down and keep moving.

DARKNESS

A spooky time where you can’t see much. Stay close to your buddies.

EGG FRENZY

Sometimes a bunch of Cyte Eggs appear out of nowhere. It’s best to take them out before they all spawn.

BUBBLE GEYSER PLANTS

These launch giant bubbles at you that lock you in place if you get hit. Don’t stand still!

FIRE BEAM CRYSTALS

Big rotating beams of fire that hurt real bad. Just stay away from them.

ICE BEAM CRYSTALS

Like the fire ones, but these slow you way down instead of hurting you. Again your gameplan here is to not get hit.

ORA STORM

A cloud of electrical energy that hurts if you stand in it. Try not to stand in it.

ICE STORM

Like the Ora storm, but they slow you down. You should avoid them, even if you’re feeling warm.

VOLCANO

An unstable patch of ground. Very dangerous. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.


Enemies

You didn’t come here to just walk around. Here’s who you’re up against.

SKITTERBEAK

Health: Low
Damage: High

Once it charges up, it rapidly shoots high damage projectiles at you. Run away, interrupt it with some crowd control, or blow it up first.

ARCRAPTOR

Health: Low
Damage: High

Once it gets close, it fires lightning bolts into the sky. Keep moving and spread out to avoid getting fried.

SHIMMERSTRIKER

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

Jumps around and hides before striking. Groups of them can be dangerous and will swarm you. Warp away or take a thousand cuts.

LANDSQUID

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

Fires dangerous bolts of energy from afar. Get in close to take them out, or get your Captain to protect you with a Wind Wall.

SQUIDTOOTH

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

Fires a powerful laser that not even Captain Yasuo can stop. Strafe around them and attack before they can fire again.

CRIMSON STINGER

Health: High
Damage: Low

Grabs you with its tail and drags you into danger. Call for backup—your team can free you with crowd control effects.

PETALCLAW

Health: Medium
Damage: Medium

Spits out gross goo to slow you down and then charges at you in a frenzy. Keep your distance before he ramps up and unleashes a flurry of strikes. Kinda looks like a flower.

BRIGHTCORE

Health: High
Damage: Low

Emits a protective barrier that blocks all damage to herself and other monsters around her. The barrier doesn’t work up close, so get in there.

ANCHORTAIL

Health: Medium
Damage: Medium

The tail does a lot of damage and knocks you back. You can run away, or you can get so close that the tail can’t hurt you.

TERRABURSTER

Health: High
Damage: High

These guys aren’t super accurate, but if their ground pillars hit you they can do a lot of damage. Just keep moving and you should be OK.

ALPHACYTE

Health: Medium
Damage: Low

They don’t do much damage, but they spawn eggs that hatch Cytes. Take them out quickly or you’ll be fighting a hundred of their little babies.

CYTE

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

These are the little babies from the Alphacytes. Not scary on their own, but can be a real problem in numbers. Use AoE on them.

RHINODON

Health: High
Damage: Medium

These are aggressive and they try to chase you down. When they slam the ground they leave a deadly red ring. Keep your distance!

TUSKBEARD

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

Each time they get hit, they’ll put up defenses and charge a massive attack. When that happens, run behind them and you can take them out safely.

RAZORHEART

Health: Low
Damage: Medium

They get in close and unleash bigger and bigger attacks. Stay away and do damage quickly.

DOZERMAW

Health: Medium
Damage: High

Once angry, they’ll charge in a straight line for big damage. Move out of the way or use Warp so you don’t get knocked out.

HOGTONGUE

Health: Medium
Damage: Medium

They try to pull you in with their giant tongues. Keep moving around them to avoid it, since it’s super gross.

MAJORS (Blue Glow)

Any enemy can become mutated and grow larger. This gives them a lot more health and damage.

ELITES (Red Glow)

A rare and dangerous super mutation. These enemies are extremely dangerous and can kill you in a single hit.

KAYN

Health: Massive
Damage: Tons

I'm actually super hyped about this event! I loved the SG event with the PvE mode and am super looking forward to this mode as well. The missions on the other page also enlightened to another Onslaught mode, this time with better rewards for doing the more difficult missions. Some peeps complained the SG mode was "too hard" but let 'em cry I say! The aliens attacking these worlds aren't gonna make it easy and I'm certainly ready for the challenge! Bring it on! (If we're gonna be serious for a moment though, they gave me Ziggs in this mode; this won't even be a challenge.) [sg-miss-fortune]

Rito pease! Can we get Yasuo reading a book for his joke/taunt and as he reads the lizard tries to get his attention and then he either shoos it away or he says "Not now I'm reading..."

Pretty please :(

Hey Riot,

I'm a Dota 2 Player first and a League player second. I just had a question. You have a "Custom" section in your game, why don't you let the player create fan based games like this and more and let everyone play them like Dota does? i would say 35%-40% of my time spent on Dota is in the custom games section. I still play ranked games every day but for fun, i try out a couple fan made games here and there and it constantly keeps the game fresh. I'm excited to see this game mode, but i was just wondering why don't you guys do that in league?

Thank you

I was really hoping Kayn would be playable in this mode. [sg-janna] Ahh but im still happy about Sona being in the roster~

Riot! Love this mode and I'm typically anti-grind games. Somehow you made it fresh and enjoyable. Can't thank you guys enough for the great times... oh wait, there's skins.

Yep this event was practically built for me. They gave me Jinx and Sona, tons of things to shoot and a way to work my RPG magic with planning and coordination. BRING ON THE ALIENS!

APsychicRefugee9/12/2018, 11:55:41 PM7 votes

Anyone else having this problem? I've beaten Intro at least 4 times already, and yet none of the missions are registering, the next difficulty won't unlock, and nothing changes. Do I have to win a certain amount or something to get these things to work? I love the mode, it's just tiring and annoying to get stuck like this.

Riot please make an Ornn skin for this event! Its too good an opportunity to miss! He can be the mechanic for the ship or something and his ult can summon a ship!Ornn

"oh boy this looks fun" see's it's restricted champs AGAIN "Whelp, guess this is going to be another event I skip" [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Raxicor9/20/2018, 5:18:02 AM4 votes

Tiny critique is that I wish the wording of the Ziggs/Sona mission was clearer. Had a teammate rage out and afk because two of us were Sona instead of 5 Ziggs. Would have been fine. :/

But yeah, this has been my favorite event yet! :)

SammyDayspring9/17/2018, 4:43:17 AM4 votes

This mode gets boring really fast. It is way too repetitive. Having only 5 champs makes it even more tedious. It's very "grindy".The augments don't compensate for this. Thankfully it is only a temporary event.

lykkelas9/12/2018, 2:10:26 AM4 votes

PLEASE make the rest of your game as awesome as this

Frrz9/12/2018, 1:14:16 AM3 votes

The wallpapers have some pretty heavy Jpeg artifacts, can we get higher quality reposts?

numero XIII9/14/2018, 3:31:11 PM3 votes

The Augments is what really makes this game mode fresh, fun and repeatable.

I wish we had a PVP custom mode where instead of buying items we buy augments!!! Instead of just getting AD,AP,HP,.. our abilities change and get more powerful like what those augments are doing.

Of course the problem is that Riot will have to design augments for every champ separately from scratch. So that'll never happen :(

Maybe a smaller champ pool as a start? Some augments can be shared as well.

Good job Riot, you made me dream. [sg-lulu]

Looks awesome, Good work Riot! I can't wait to spam play this Friday night.

The Alphacytes look like that one minion type from black market brawlers. That was such an interesting mode.

The onslaught missions are so stupid. literally can't play a single game without someone trying to force the whole team into mission.

Beast Naruto9/25/2018, 5:57:49 PM2 votes

The emotes vanished without warning! (only the bundles, chromas, and icons were stated to remain until the 1159 pm PT of the 24th) I was planning on the Yasuo one if I beat the event in time. I beat it after like an 18-24 hour grind and now I can't reward myself. Please release them again because I really need the Yasuo emote. I'm sad enough that I didn't get the Yasuo border for Nightbringer, I don't want to miss out on another thing that I forced myself to grind.

Shabada649/11/2018, 7:43:00 PM2 votes

Riot, do Relicbeads disqualify you from quests that require a certain limit of augments?

I am so excited to take my 674,000 points worth of Sona experience and crank the volume up to 11 in this game mode. I cannot wait to jam this a ton, with perfect tempo!!!

Cataclysma9/12/2018, 8:18:13 PM2 votes

Okay...HOW do you apply the augments?? Do you need to get all 15 or are they until unlocked if you get the skin? Because there's only so much that can be done item wise; ESPECIALLY in the higher difficulties. HELP MEH

The FARF9/13/2018, 7:30:06 AM2 votes

Dear Rito;

 I have never left a complaint publicly, at least not that i can remember. i seldom read these forums, im pretty understanding of the errors that can happen when you run a huge service like League. however, today i am pissed off and broken hearted because it just so happens that 2 days after your event starts, thru circumstances beyond my control, i will be away from the internet for a month. AND IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT MY ONLY CHANCE TO GET ALL THE REWARDS FOR ODESSY IS TO BINGE PLAY FOR THE LESS THAN 24 HOURS I HAVE LEFT. BUT NO, A BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY CANT FUCKIN LET ME GET WHAT I HAVE EARNED BY PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM YOU OFFERED ME, I DIDNT ASK FOR IT. i busted my ass and finally beat it on captain, and onslaught wasnt unlocked. i busted my ass trying to get more augment slots, and the missions stay frozen. yes i know you are going to fix it, but WHAT GOOD DOES THAT DO ME? i put 10 hours plus into this mode today and still get slaughtered at the final boss because i dont have the SHIT I NEED TO PROGRESS. THANKS A LOT I GET TO COME BACK IN A MONTH AND ALL MY BUDDYS ARE GONNA HAVE THE SKINS AND ICONS AND SHIT, AND IM NOT. ive been thinking about quitting your game just because i look back to 10 years ago when people had to pay for their games, i got halo for 50 bux and played it for years with no issue. sure i get to play leauge for free, but ive personally dumped over a grand into skins, to support a game i loved. and now you are a billion dollar company and you shit on me and all the others by releasing something that wasnt even close to ready. ending rant right here dont care who sees this or what they think of it just needed to get it out. maybe get some better programmers or retrain the ones you have. im sure im not alone in feeling this way, you think URF made players quit, keep an eye on your numbers after this bullshit.
