Please note, this is subject to change.
most probably Council Store size (and Casino one when u buy slot for Casino tokens) will NOT be wipe
Yeah you can wipe all the items, money, favor with npcs but i really hope to keep the Casino red token chest 5100 tokens to max it i'm still not done with that one yet, same with Hulon i'm at 60k for next slot, like i can unlock 2/3 of a lv61-70 skill with that money.
Like the realease dateQuote:

Yes this is Early Access and a true Beta that has at least months still before release.Quote:

Getting trans and aug up. Making sure my foraging, surveying, and skinning are maxed to ease recovery time after Wipeocalypse.
Now, who knows, this may all change tomorrow for better of worse. The devs have been pretty up-front about this from the start.
Favor is going to be a beast, though. You're not wrong. I might not go back to bard if favor does end up wiping. Too many oddball requirements for a skill which can be boiled down to one rockstar ability and a bunch of things other skills can also do. But I digress. Take this time to make friends, try skills, and master your game knowledge instead of maxing your bank space.
This sums up my play-style accurately. I got burnt out when focusing on crafting and min/max. Don't get bogged down in mats, mods, and gear that will be wiped later (RIP dangerous enhancement weapons), rather enjoy the game content itself and testing (leveling) all sorts of stuff / acquiring the related recipes and combat skills. I know in alpha we were charged with bug reporting extensively, and the need for this only increases the closer to launch. For experienced players the wipe just means a chance to revisit content, and if you know the ropes then collecting items / councils isn't such a headache. This is a good chance to lay the groundwork for your toons presuming they don't give us a completely fresh wipe. Short answer: Just have fun.Quote:

Favor per item is based on the value of the item itself and later in the game items just tend to be more valuable. There are some NPCs that if you've learned all they have to offer the wipe won't hit as hard - others just become easier. For instance NPCs that like food or skins can be leveled quickly late in the game, but are tedious when you're just starting.Quote:
