CIFI: Shard Milestones

• 29 ordinary milestones plus one Eternal milestone (after your first Traversal). Names include Alpha, Aquarius, Libra, Modifying, Flowering, Connecting, Duality, Morphing, Producing, Expanding, Triangular, Extracting, and more.
• Each milestone has levels up to a cap (100 at the start). Bonuses switch on at set levels (1, 25, 50, 75 and so on, depending on rarity).
• New milestones unlock by total levels bought in earlier ones. For example, the 9th unlocks at 150 total levels and the 10th at 180.
• Levels stay through resets. Unspent shards do not.
• The cap can be raised: the Workers Badge doubles it, a research doubles it again, and the Rule of Hard Work mod adds more. Re-scan finished milestones after any cap increase.
• Compare the next level's real gain. A threshold level is often worth more than a cheaper ordinary level. Cheap levels can also unlock a better milestone.
• Some values in community tables disagree between versions. Read the in-game text.

Name list: UNSURE. The community wiki's first listed milestone is Aqua, and that page does not list Alpha. This page's older name list includes Alpha. The in-game name was not checked.

Cost and formula limits: UNSURE. A public search of r/CIFI and public wikis on November 6, 2026 did not find exact costs for most shard milestones. This is not proof no formula exists. The community wiki lists unlock requirements in milestone levels; those are not shard prices. Its description of multiplicative bonus growth does not supply each milestone's exact bonus formula.

The resource-math discussion distinguishes a displayed cumulative bonus from the next level's multiplier; it is one community discussion, not a complete milestone formula reference. No current installation was checked, and Discord itself was not read. Material from the same community lineage counts once.
