Fanatical Purifier Questions

[Starisc]

Hello Stellaris community,

I immediately started a new campaign after Utopia came out yesterday and decided to go with the playstyle I prefer anyway: space hitlr.

It's been fun so far but I got confused about something I read about purifiers. I read, that I should get unity for purging xeno-scum (excuse my French ) but I get zip. I conquered some planets, marked the occupants as undesirables and put them into labour camps (food & mineral). Do I need to process them for food to get the unity? As my people are multiplying like rabbits I need any unity I can get (got expansion and prosperity done, working on supremacy to get unity any way I can ).

Second, I got a gameplay question: Which ascension path should I pick for fanatical purifiers? As I have to purge every single xeno, I decided to go for habitability (adaptive) and hobbit-style (fast breeders) with my initial race setup.

Now I face the choice between synth for 200% habitability or Gene-modding (to get this new 30%+ perk hidden at the end) - What would you guys recommend?

Thank you for help!

Lore wise none of them fits. The megastructure route is your only option: If you hate aliens why should you change yourself into one?

You are not making yourself an alien, you turn yourself into gods like you are meant to be! No matter which way you choose.

Ask the Nazis about eugenics, biological ascension is just that but faster.

I'm willing to compromise for the higher goal of galactic purity (and I'm not big on RP ).
