Current Core Medalsīelow is the list of core medals which are currently available, with their in-scanner descriptions click on a medal name for more details about that medal: If you then upgrade one of your gold medals to platinum, you will immediately level up, because the gold medal was not taken away.Ī decoration will be shown to indicate when a medal has been earned multiple times via recursion. You currently have enough AP and seven gold medals, but don’t yet have the platinum one. Suppose you’re a level 12 agent gunning for level 13, which requires one platinum and seven gold medals. If you earn a platinum Recharger medal, for example, the gold one in your profile will be replaced with the platinum one, but tapping it shows you still have the gold one, too (as well as the silver and bronze ones). It’s important to note that, although only the highest tier you’ve earned for each of the core medals is displayed in your profile, upgrading a medal to the next tier does not take away the previous tier. Non-core medals-even those that are tiered and regardless of their actual color-do not contribute to leveling. Beyond agent level 8, a certain number of silver or higher tier core medals are required to level up. These medals come in five tiers: bronze, silver, gold, platinum and onyx (sometimes called “black”). These medals recognize the achievement of certain thresholds in your lifetime stats. There are various categories of medals, listed below: Core Medals Mission medals are displayed in a separate section underneath the others. Anomaly medals are shown first, from the most recent anomaly to the oldest one, followed by the remaining non-mission medals, in the reverse order that they were received. Medals are found on the agent profile you can see yours by tapping your icon at the upper-left corner of the scanner screen. Medals (sometimes called badges) are virtual rewards for various in-game accomplishments, similar to achievements in other games.
