Revision as of 04:21, 8 June 2012
After any member of a legion has finished researching Hybrid Theory Dynamics, they will be allowed to construct the Collective Theory Lab, typically shortened to CT Lab, on their Legion Base.
As with other special structures, the CT Lab will unlock a new option in the 'Actions' tab when installed. Only members who have also finished researching |Hybrid Theory Dynamics]] can use the Lab. Members must also be Base Loyalty|Loyal to use the CT Lab.
CT Lab Discoveries
The CT Lab allows the legion to research new discoveries. A discovery is a special blueprint/formula that allows lab-users to convert artifacts into newer, more powerful artifacts. Unlike normal research, discoveries are completely random and are intended to be a way for members to constantly spend research points after they have completed most of the tiers.
Attempting a discovery starts at 2000 Research points per attempt. If a breakthrough is achieved, it will be added to the list of available options in the CT Lab permanently. However, subsequent discovery attempts will cost more depending on how many discoveries have already been made (appears to be +2000 RP per attempt for every new discovery).
All discoveries are considered 'rare' and will typically be achieved in 1-2% of attempts. However, this chance becomes more difficult as further discoveries are made. Finding all of the available discoveries will be difficult and require attempts from many members.
The following artifacts are only available through the new Collective Theory Lab in the Legion Base. By researching in the lab you have a chance to randomly get a blueprint for one of the following artifacts, which in turn can be built with common and rare artifacts.
