8 years ago The only way I feel wiping collectibles would be reasonable is if you get some kind of credit for what you already collected. It would also give a reason to bother with basic collectibles during your leveling time, since a higher count could give some kind of bonus. But because there is a limit to how many collectibles you can pick up during an ascension (however many happen to be in the game at the time), I do not believe an exponential amount for the achieve would work. And I am not quite sure what the reward should be, since it should relate back to collectibles earned.
I think starter gear would be nice over nothing, since the starter items are never seen again after you replace them now.

Here is how ascending will work: You will get to a level past 100, and you'll have the option to ascend. When you ascend, your current item score, gold, and level will be recorded as a permanent stat. You will get achievements based on how high each of these are (so you can ascend twice at level 100, or once at level 200 for a similar effect). Perhaps, though, you'll have to hit max level each time
This may result in ultimately making the current max level 100. Sorry, if you go past 100, we will figure something out (possibly just giving you a forced ascension and giving you those bonus levels).
Now, since your stats are all recorded permanently, you'll get achievements for your gains. Obviously, the game-able one is gold. The simple answer is that you get no permanent gold ascension bonuses if you give it all away first. You could do the same with equipment, but it results in the same thing - no equipment bonuses. Level is not really game-able.
Now, how this will work. Ascension bonuses will grant significant boosts for subsequent playthroughs. Suppose you bank 1mil. That would probably correspond to +10% gold gained from all sources. These achievements would also be exponential, so 1m, 10m, 100m - 30% gold from all sources. Probably a title way, way down the line.
After ascending, your gold is removed.
For equipment, it would probably start at 100k (since items generally top off around there). Then 1m, 10m, etc. And this would result in item equip multipliers as well as static bonuses. Titles down the line. This would also increase your maximum item score (+100% every tier).
After ascending, you start with no equipment. Maybe newbie gear, but TBD.
Levels are where it's at, though. This is where the real bonuses come in. Probably, this achievement would progress differently as the scale is a bit different. Maybe, a static progression: 100, 300, 500, 700, 900, 1100, etc. Titles periodically, like usual. But this gives you other real bonuses, too:

Pet levels are also reset.
