On occasion, high-value targets will appear, which are minibosses differentiated by a white sparkling aura that drop a large amount of Motes on damage and death, usually enough for a player to nearly fill their Mote inventory. Should a team be trailing greatly behind the opposing team, catch-up targets will appear for them, which are Elite enemies with the same aura as high-value targets that drop more Motes than regular enemies, but not as much as actual high-value targets.

At 40 and 80 Motes deposited, a portal will open up which allows one player to invade the other team's area to hinder their progress by denying Motes.<ref name = "Gambit"/> The Invader will have an overshield, be friendly to the opponents' enemies, and be able to see the locations of every opposing player, at the cost of being announced and glowing red for easy visibility to the opposing team. Popular invasion and counter-invasion tactics include the use of [[Super]]s, long-range weapons such as [[sniper rifle]]s, and heavy weapons such as [[machine gun]]s like [[Xenophage]]. Invaders will return to their team once a timer runs out, they eliminate the entire enemy team, or they are killed. Killing an Invader drops 3 motes, or all the motes they were carrying. An Invader can collect the motes of players they kill, and bring them back to their own arena.
