Research

In order to obtain new technology, you must first obtain research points by researching items. For each branch of technology (mechanics, tesla, genetics, and occultism), there are 7 different levels of research item, which can be researched at the Academy or the Tower of Alchemy in order to obtain research points. Note that the Academy can always research any research item, but the Tower of Alchemy can only research an item with a level less than the Tower's level.

The following table summarizes the research items. Note that the last tier (the 72h items) is currently only obtainable from the Knowledge Day Remastered event.

Gauss research points work differently; they are not researched normally, but obtained by destroying Gauss generators in the Labyrinth special event.

Once you have obtained research points, they can be used to research new technologies at the Academy. For full lists of the technology upgrades available, see the specific pages:
