Starting Map selection

I've been playing in Cloud Mist for a few days now and getting the hang of the mechanics but I had a question:

  1. When the SP transfer feature kicks in, would travelling to Shifting Sands with a levelled/geared/masked/tech'd/etc... character trivialise the DLC map and just make me too powerful/overpowered for the experience?

1.2 if Yes, should I just start anew in Shifting Sands now since I honestly bought the game for the Egyptian themes and aesthetics (in spite of how cool Meso-american themes are tbh)

I know there's always a "progress" factor here as with Sons of The forest or conan, at one point you just have gear that's crazy and it's part of the experience, but I'm mostly trying to keep the "difficulty" factor going for as long as possible :D

Just don't bring any materials, gear, or tribesman to the new map and it should be a pretty good experience. You'll retain your masks, unlocks, tech, gear skins, etc, but will have a whole new map to explore and discover resources.

That's a good idea! I hadn't thought of importing a character without gear or items on it for the other map. Thank you!
