Research
By using research structures like the Research Desk players unlock unique items and upgrades required to reach the highest gear score.
Recipes
Recipes unlock crafting options from research structures, either through recipe books obtained as drops or by random chance using research reagents. They feature structures, weapon upgrades, and consumables, with all three tiers of research containg unique unlocks that can't be produced any other way. Clans can interact with research structures built by other clan members and learn any preexisting research without an additional cost.
Obtaining recipe books
Books containing random recipes are dropped rarely by enemies, found in loot chests, and even obtained via fishing. The tier of book is based on the enemy level or zone it's looted from. Farbane Woods most commonly contains recipes for the Research Desk, Dunley Farmlands for the Study, and Silverlight Hills and Cursed Forest for the Athenaeum.
Random research
All three tiers of research structures have an associated reagent that can be used to roll for a random recipe that hasn't yet been unlocked. Each can be obtained from zones of their respective tier, and recipe books, especially duplicates, can be put in The Devourer to obtain reagents of their respective tier. The Paper Press can be used to turn lower-tier research reagents (along with other required items) into higher-tier research reagents.
