Cataloged Research

• Cataloged Research
• As you bring the Archivist Relics he will catalog it which will allow you to start Field Studies to learn more about them or identiy relics in his care that you can use in the field.

Archivist Roh-Suir

Cataloged Research is given in exchange for  [Relic Fragment]-equivalent items found in Korthia. It is used to buy items from Archivist Roh-Suir at the Reliquary of Remembrance at Keeper's Respite.

Additionally, research can be used at item upgrade NPC's — like Assistant Scholar Kah-Vez in the Reliquary of Remembrance — to increase the item level of daily quest gear from patch 9.1.0, all the way up to item level 233.
