Greetings, Descendants! In this guide, we’ll cover Research Requests, which are used to obtain new Descendants and craft various advanced equipment and enhancement materials.
What Are Research Requests?
Research Requests let you obtain Descendants other than the Descendant that you chose at the start of The First Descendant.
It is also a function that allows you to craft materials that are required to enhance the stats of Ultimate Weapons, Modules, Equipment, and more.
Research Request main screen – You can find the list of different Research Requests sorted by categories on the left.
There will be a total of 13 Descendants available during the Crossplay Open Beta Test.
Excluding your first chosen Descendant, you can obtain any of the remaining 12 Descendants through Research Requests.
