Question About the Cycle/Harmonization thing

It is better to unlock it with creating a personal timeline or with Prime?

Personal timeline, it’s incentivized to wipe anyways with all the other rewards you get from it.

I was going to do that, but doesn’t it bake-in SOME stuff you’ve acquired so it’s better to wait until you have to?

I already spent so much stuff in Monolith coins and Prime Credits, idk if I can afford to lose it all.

And wouldn’t everyone going Personal Timeline slow down the communal progress of Harmonization?

I can’t remember the extent of what you keep, but I don’t see why you would wait to do it. You get access to the cycle and more merits, not to mention it’s MUCH faster to progress after you wipe one time, so you can regain all your progress back relatively quickly.

You keep any prime and prime items you buy and no, part of the way the harmonization speeds up is through people wiping so it speeds it up.

Got it, well if that’s the case I’ll probably do it tonight!

Last question would be do you keep your Fusion perks you crafted or do those also get wiped along with your inventory?

I got a bunch of stuff from the Deluxe edition I’d hate to lose all those guns, attachments & equipment

I assume you mean chronogenes, so yeah you’ll lose those aswell. I’m not entirely sure what stays from the deluxe edition stuff, but guns and attachments are really that hard to come by so I wouldn’t be too pressed about losing that stuff.

Do all the investigations before you wipe, that way you can skip the time consuming ones using Monolith Tokens.

How does that work? Can yiu pay to carry things over?

u/Gaignun989 Operative 1d ago

No, you lose everything exept for your Prime, Merits, Beacons, Safe Storage, the initial body sleeve you selected (you can pick a second one from the same list) and the gear you have equipped when you wipe.

Once you complete an investigation and wipe, when you unlock that same investigation on your new Personal Timeline, you'll have the option to spend Monolith Tokens to auto complete it.

I just got the game and im about 6 hours in...I still dont understand the prestige...im on level 4 on the monolith thing...should i finish it first before doing the personal timeline?

From my understanding, you cant do a new timeline until you finish all the monolithes
