There are three (3) ways an Agent may earn the in-app Cryptic Memories Anomaly medal:
- from an Anomaly Site,
- from a Cell Battle, or
- from a Shard Night.
Earning Anomaly medal from an Anomaly Site
Any Agent who has interacted with five (5) or more NIASection14-deployed Battle Beacons in an Anomaly Zones will earn the in-app Anomaly medal after those Battle Beacons end. Agents are considered interacting with a Battle Beacon if they:
- Deploy or Upgrade Resonator (note: upgrading one’s own Resonators does not count)
- Attack or Destroy Resonator
- Destroy Portal Mod
- Destroy Link
- Recharge Resonator (note: this includes Remote Recharge)
This medal will be awarded after an Agent has reached five (5) qualifying Battle Beacon interactions after the Battle Beacons end. Agents who have already earned the in-app Anomaly medal in an earlier event phase or site will not receive a second Anomaly medal.
A Cryptic Memories Agent Stat will be added to your Agent Profile for the duration of the Cryptic Memories Anomaly Series to help you monitor your individual progress.
Earning Anomaly medal from a Cell Battle
The top 50 Agents from each Faction of the chosen Regional Cells at the end of chosen Septicycles will earn the in-app Anomaly medal.
The Anomaly medal will be granted within one (1) week after the end of each chosen Septicycle.
Earning Anomaly medal from a Shard Night
Any Agent who has interacted locally with one (1) or more NIASection14-deployed Battle Beacons to the spawn Portal and Link destination Portal of Shards will earn 5 Points towards the Cryptic Memories Agent Stat and thereby the in-app Anomaly medal. Such Battle Beacons will be deployed when Shards manifest and at approximately 20:00 local time during a Shard Night.
Agents are considered interacting with a Battle Beacon locally if they:
- Deploy or Upgrade Resonator (note: upgrading one’s own Resonators does not count)
- Attack or Destroy Resonator
- Destroy Portal Mod
- Destroy Link
- Recharge Resonator locally (within 40m) (note: Remote Recharge does NOT qualify)
