Vasca Kavat

The Vasca Kavat is a Kavat Companion carrying the infectious Vasca Virus. Vampiric in nature, its precepts inflicts status while healing itself, and sacrifices a portion of its health to revive their owner from Bleedout.
==Acquisition==
The player must have completed the Howl of the Kubrow quest in order to have an operating Incubator on the Orbiter, and have installed the Kavat Incubator Upgrade Segment whose blueprint can be obtained from the Clan Dojo's Tenno Lab research or dropped by Hyekka Masters, or purchased fully built from the Market for . The player must also have 10 Kavat Genetic Codes from scanning Feral Kavats on the Orokin Derelict tileset on Deimos using Codex Scanners or Synthesis Scanners, and a built Incubator Power Core whose blueprint can be obtained from the Market.
Rather than being generated from the Incubator, 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 and Vasca Kavat Pheromone Oota for . Once the player's Kavat is attacked by the wild Vasca, it will become infected, indicated by a red overlay. Vulpaphylas cannot be infected. If the Kavat is downed in one hit by the wild Vasca, it will not return infected.
The player must then take their infected Kavat back to the Orbiter's Incubator and use a Genetic Code Template on them. To ensure that it will be specifically a Vasca Imprint, rather than an imprint of the original Kavat's breed, the wording of the confirmation dialog should read "Creating a pet imprint will consume a blank imprint and cure your Kavat of the Vasca Virus. Continue?" Selecting YES will start the imprinting process, which will yield a Vasca Imprint while also removing the virus. As this is creating an imprint, available imprints of the Kavat are required and also used up. Two imprints are necessary to guarantee the creation of a Vasca 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 . 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 . This bundle includes two Vasca Imprints, the 10 Kavat Genetic Codes, Incubator Power Core, and an extra Genetic Code Template.
