Questions about teachables and prestiging

Hi there, I am currently working my way through all of my characters' bloodwebs and pretty much everyone is above level 30 now. I'm starting to be concerned about what happens to the teachables after prestiging. Let's say the character I prestige first is Meg, I've already learned her three teachables: Adrenaline, Sprint Burst and Quick & Quiet. What happens in these scenarios with the teachables (do they continue to spawn in the bloodweb)?

i. Nea has Sprint Burst learned at tier 1, will it remain at tier 1 or will the perk continue to spawn in the bloodweb?
ii. Ace hasn't learned any of her teachables, will they appear in his bloodweb after Meg has prestiged?
iii. I reach level 30+ with Meg again, does the teachable appear at prestige 1 and above if I have already learned them?
iv. If I haven't already learned them the first time around, will they appear again the next prestige?

    When you prestige a character, it gets rid of all of the perks, items, and add-ons you have unlocked on that character. If you were to prestige Meg like you said, you would lose everything on her and have to start again from scratch. The only thing Meg would have would be her Tier 1 teachables. Nea would still have Sprint Burst since you didn't prestige her, Ace would still be able to buy Meg's teachables in the bloodweb, and Meg will have her perks show up in her bloodweb but not as teachables. This is the same every time you prestige. Before you actually prestige though, I would wait until the next patch so that perks will spawn in low level bloodwebs. It will help to reduce the grind a little bit for people who aren't done with their prestiges yet.

    @Leo Thanks for the answer! I don't reckon I would reach prestige that soon before the next update goes live but thanks for that advice anyway.

    Poof, it's all gone you get a cosmetic and everything resets to zero. You keep teachables for other characters to unlock if you bought them from bloodweb. And they say you have a chance to get better items in bloodweb, but I think it's like 0.0001%

    Yeah I know about those details from the wiki. But it wasn't very clear on how the teachables work past prestige, hence this thread.

    Sorry, but then you aren't reading stuff properly. The Wiki states that Teachables work like keys to unlock them for other Characters, meaning that the Unique Perks become general Perks.

    How much clearer do you effing need it?

    I don't understand how people keep thinking that Teachable Perks remain tied to their main Character's Unique Perks, it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

    There is really no need to be condescending. Especially if you have nothing new to add to the discussion. I understand how teachable perks work once they have been unlocked, if you've read the thread at all I've clearly said I have unlocked at least one on each character already.

    I meant the wiki says that everything is essentially reset after prestige. It didn't clarify if the teachables will also be reset and you would need to relearn them again (i.e if you haven't unlocked them on another character you would need to relearn the teachable).

    An assumption for which there's no basis, which is what annoys me since I maintain the Wiki.

    Sorry to hurt your feelings?

    edit: I don't really want to bump this thread because it's pointless for others to see it now. But I had to acknowledge you edited your post to not make yourself look like a completely condescending ass by adding the explanation on how teachables work like I didn't already know that.
