Special Research
HLG weapon parts not available to purchase from depot (listed in red from obtained parts list) can be brought to Special Research Institute (特殊研究機関) to be converted into more powerful weapons depending on research outcome. Successful analysis will convert the weapon into more advanced weapon while failed analysis will instead grants downgraded, inferior weapon. Weapons can no longer be analyzed any further once they reach highest upgrade variant (i.e highest caliber guns) or downgraded all the way they become parts purchaseable from the depot when analysis is failed.
There are two modes for analysis, Short Term Analysis (短期調査) costs 2500 credits and lasts one battle, and Long Term Analysis (長期調査) costs 5000 credits. Analysis success rate is always RNG dependant but mostly determined by the following factors:
- Analysis duration (short/long), Long Term Analysis has higher chance of success
- Current Technology Level (higher technology level increases success rate)
- Base success rate for researched part. More advanced, powerful weapon has lower success rate
Special Research Tree
Part listed in bold denotes part that cannot be further developed, cell in blue marks successful analysis result. while cell in red marks failed analysis result.
