Vulpaphyla

สําหรับ Conservation Vulpaphyla ดูเพิ่มเติมที่ Vulpaphyla (Conservation)

**Vulpaphyla** are terrain-restricted Infested Kavat-like companions. There are **3** subspecies of Vulpaphyla.

Like MOAs, Vulpaphyla are obtained through a modular system, with players able to select from various combinations of three different components to create a Vulpaphyla to their liking. Since these are organic companions, they are not built, but rather revivified through the use of mutagens and antigens from Son.

Similar to other companions, Vulpaphyla can be given custom names for further personalization once they are gilded, as well as being able to be revived once downed.

Unique to Vulpaphlya is their ability to self-revive with their respective **Devolution** precept, which regresses the creature into a larval state immediately upon death. This form floats next to the owner in a similar manner to Sentinels for 30 seconds before reviving itself. Each subspecies' Devolution precept offers differing behaviors for their larval states, but the underlying revival mechanic remains the same, effectively rendering the Vulpaphyla immortal until its owner dies. However, the Devolution precept prevents the Vulpaphyla from entering bleedout and thus cannot be revived normally, and its transformation cannot be sped up.

* Components
* Crafting
* Stats

A Vulpaphyla companion needs three different components to be revivified, the **Weakened Subspecies**, the **Mutagen**, and the **Antigen**. Each component type has several options to choose from, allowing players to customize stats and the Vulpaphyla's type and appearance.

### Subspecies

The Vulpaphyla's **Subspecies** forms the companion's head which is the component that earns Mastery Rank points for the Vulpaphyla after gilding. Each subspecies grant 2 mods like other companions.

### Mutagen

The **Mutagen** determines the appearance of the Vulpaphyla's tail and the innate resistance type of the Vulpaphyla.

### Revivification

Before players can revivify a Vulpaphyla, they must first purchase the blueprints for the Mutagen and Antigen they desire from Son, which is available for Standing, after which these parts must then be constructed at the Foundry.

The Weakened Subspecies must be captured via Conservation in the Cambion Drift. The wild Vulpaphyla must be put in a "weakened" state, which occurs when attacked by roaming Infested, indicated by an orange shimmering overlay and the name "Weakened" appearing before the Vulpaphyla's name (e.g. Weakened Sly Vulpaphyla). Players may either find wild Vulpaphlya already in combat, or tranq them and then lure enemy Infested toward the sleeping creature. Beware, however, as upon seeing the player, they will attempt to flee and despawn relatively quickly.

Once the component parts have been crafted and the Weakened Subspecies captured, players must return to Son and select the **Vulpaphyla Revivification** option. Here, players must choose the components they have available to revivify the Vulpaphyla. Once a Subspecies, Mutagen, and Antigen are selected, the player will be shown a preview of the Vulpaphyla's appearance. If the Vulpaphyla is satisfactory, players can then proceed with the **Build** action, which will instantly Revivify the Vulpaphyla for **5,000 Creditsไฟล์:Credits64.png 5,000**. Players can also use the Configure screen to preview builds of Vulpaphyla components they do not yet own.

A newly revivified Vulpaphyla cannot be renamed, customized, Polarized, equipped with a Focus Lens, or earn Mastery Rank experience. However, they can be equipped with an Orokin Reactor.

### Gilding

In order to fully unlock all of a Vulpaphyla's features, players must **gild** their Vulpaphyla. To gild a Vulpaphyla, the desired Vulpaphyla must first be leveled up to Rank 30. Afterwards, players must return to Son and select the *Gild* option under *Experimental Procedures*, which will cost 10 Son Tokens and **5,000 Standingไฟล์:ReputationBlackx64.png 5,000**. Upon gilding the Vulpaphyla, players will be asked to first add a Polarity to the Vulpaphyla, and then finally give it a custom name. This process will reset the Vulpaphyla's level back to Rank 0.

A Gilded Vulpaphyla will have all of the functionality available to other organic companions, and it will have enhanced stats over the newly-built version of the Vulpaphyla. You will only be able to earn Mastery Rank points once you Gild your Vulpaphyla.

* By default a Vulpaphyla companion has **95** Health, **50** Armor, and **90** Shields.
* The cheapest Vulpaphyla can be revivified at Rank 1: Stranger and its base components will cost **2,500 Standingไฟล์:ReputationBlackx64.png 2,500** (Adra & Desus) while the most expensive can be built at Rank 4: Friend and its base components will cost **12,000 Standingไฟล์:ReputationBlackx64.png 12,000** (Phijar & Poxi).

## Notes

* Vulpaphyla can use and equip Kavat-only companion mods, such as Tek Enhance.
	+ As of Update 30.3 (2021-05-25), Vulpaphyla cannot be infected with the Vasca Virus.
	+ Kavat Cosmetics cannot be equipped on Vulpaphylas.
* Gilding a Vulpaphyla costs 10 ไฟล์:SonToken64.png Son Tokens and **5000 Standingไฟล์:ReputationBlackx64.png 5000** Entrati Standing.
* Rank 30 Vulpaphylas and Gilded Vulpaphylas can be donated to Son in exchange for 10 and 15 ไฟล์:SonToken64.png Son Tokens, respectively.
* Weakened Subspecies are not tradeable.
* Vulpaphylas have to be gilded to earn Mastery Rank points, with their progression tied to the Vulpaphyla's Subspecies alone. For example, if a player levels up a Gilded Sly Vulpaphyla to 30, any future Sly Vulpaphyla revivified will no longer provide Mastery regardless of what combination of Mutagens and Antigens they have.
	+ As there are three currently available, the maximum amount of Mastery Rank points that can be earned from Vulpaphyla revivification is ***18,000***.
	+ The Adra Mutagen's Proto Shield applies to the Vulpaphyla's *health* type. It does not apply to its shields.
* Custom names for Vulpaphylas have a *24* character limit including spaces, and will not accept special characters like commas (,) or apostrophes ('), though hyphens ( - ) are accepted.
	+ Names can also not include any profanities such as swear words.
* With **3** Subspecies, **4** Mutagens and **4** Antigens, there are currently a total of **48** possible Vulpaphyla combinations available.
* Six Vulpaphyla Precept mods were released with the 3 Vulpaphyla companions (each Vulpaphyla subspecies, once used to build a Vulpaphyla companion, comes with 2 specific Precept mods):
	+ The Sly subspecies come with the ​Survival Instinct and Sly Devolution​ Precepts.
	+ The Crescent subspecies come with the Crescent Charge and ​Crescent Devolution Precepts.
	+ The Panzer subspecies come with Viral Quills and Panzer Devolution Precepts.
* Vulpaphyla larvae created through the Devolution precepts do **not** have access to the rest of the Vulpaphyla's equipped mods until they are revived.
	+ All Devolution precepts function normally during Arbitrations.

## Trivia

* Vulpaphyla are based on the genus of canids *Vulpes*, also colloquially known as 'true foxes'.

## Patch History

Hotfix 30.7.6 (2021-09-23)

* Fixed Vulpaphyla ‘Sentinel’ form not retaining colour customizations.

Update 30.5 (2021-07-06)

* Players can now install an Orokin Reactor onto ungilded Modular items
	+ Being unable to install a Reactor or Catalyst onto an ungilded modular item significantly slowed down progression on new Modular items. Players who were willing to make the investment into Modular items weren’t able to Mod them to their full capacity, which left their new gear feeling very underpowered. So we have removed that restriction!

Update 30.3 (2021-05-25)

* Fixed Larval state of Vulpaphyla Companion blocking view when in the Pilot seat.
* Fixed Vulpaphyla’s infected by Vasca Virus creating an Imprint that cannot be used for breeding.
	+ Vulpaphyla’s can no longer be infected.
* Fixed Sly Vulpaphyla not being affected by Ivara’s Prowl invisibility while downed and after being revived.
* Fixed the Tek Enhance mod not increasing the Duration of the Sly Vulpaphyla’s Survival Instinct Precept.

Hotfix 29.10.3 (2021-03-23)

* Fixed Codex scans not registering if you had a Vulpaphyla equipped.

Update 29.10 (2021-03-19)

* Fixed inability to Trade Vulpaphyla Imprints.
* Fixed Vulpaphyla Imprints missing icons.
* Fixed not receiving Son Tokens right after releasing a Vulpaphyla companion if you have 0 Tokens at the time. This also fixes inability to spend or exchange the rewarded Tokens until you exit and re-enter the Necralisk.

Update 29.5 (2020-11-19)

NEW ENTRATI MEMBER OFFERINGS
Son has new Vulpaphyla Precept Mods available for Entrati Standing!

***Vulpaphyla***

* Martyr Symbiosis: Drains and stores 20 Health from corpses within 25m up to 20% of their Master’s Health. Sacrifices itself to heal their Master if they fall below 10% Health.

CONSERVATION CHANGES & FIXES

* Enabled Imprinting and breeding for Predasites and Vulpaphyla.
	+ Mutagens and Antigens are inherited through breeding, allowing pets to stack their benefits.
	+ Predasites and Vulpaphyla can only be named when Gilded, so naming after hatching is skipped.
	+ Predasites and Vulpaphyla can not be cross bred with non-modular pets.
	+ Imprints of Predasites and Vulpaphyla can only be taken when the pet is Gilded.

GENERAL CHANGES

* Updated the descriptions of the Vulpaphyla and Predasite Antigens for Vulpaphyla.

Hotfix 29.2.4 (2020-10-15)

* Fixed many cases where the Sly Vulpaphyla wouldn't respect cooldowns, would fail to trigger, or would result in Client FX not getting cleaned up.
* Fixed inability to swap Polarities via Forma on Infested Companions.
* Fixed the name of newly Gilded Infested Companions not appearing in the Arsenal.
* Fixed an issue where you could not release an animal in the Necralisk if you had no Daily Standing left.

* Fixed Vulpaphyla Companions not granting Mastery Rank.
	+ *Upon login of this Hotfix, missing Mastery will be given for your respective Gilded Infested Companion.*
* Fixed a crash that would occur when opening the Simulacrum Arsenal in multiplayer Simulacrum with a Vulpaphyla equipped.
