How to start the Belly of the Beast Operation

To access Belly of the Beast, you need to have played through and completed the Jade Shadows quest. You can then start the event from the Brutus node on Uranus in your Navigator. The event will run from June 18th until July 18th, giving you a full month to get every farmed.

What to do during the Operation

The main aim of this Operation is to farm Volatile Motes. These can then be brought to Larunda Relay on Mercury and given to Ordis in exchange for the items that you would like. To earn the motes, you will need to play the new Ascension game mode, take part in special alerts that cycle every 30 minutes, or play the “Stalker Joins the Fray” mode.

Operation Node Brutus on Uranus

This node will throw you into the Ascension mode, but you will be able to earn Volatile Motes as well as the Vestigial Motes that you need to farm for Jade and her weapons. In this version, Jade Light Eximus units can spawn, particularly tough versions of Eximus that can spawn a damaging beam of light above your head.

As well as the regular Ascension rewards, each Operation mission will award players with 4-6 Volatile Motes or 8-10 on Steel Path, which can be traded for rewards via Ordis in the Larunda Relay. You can also summon a Sister of Parvos by finding all three Sister Beacons hidden randomly through the level, which will also earn players an extra 1-3 Volatile Motes or 2-4 on Steel Path, as well as her usual drops.

Operation Alerts

Timed Operation Alerts will also appear across the solar system that you can jump into from the Navigation screen. These reward players with 10 Volatile Motes or 15 on Steel Path. These non-Ascension missions will have normal gameplay based on their mission type but will also feature increased Eximus Spawns, and those Eximus units will only spawn as Jade versions. They will rotate every 30 minutes, giving gameplay variance to how the Volatile Motes are earned.

Stalker Joins the Fray

This is a special mode that can be launched by visiting Ordis at Larunda Relay. You can join other players as the Stalker and help them during their attempts to finish the Ascension mode. You will get standard mission rewards as long as you do not get downed during the mission.
