Aden Laboratory
A permanent progression system where Exploration Reports reveal boss cards, complete research pages and unlock randomized Special Stage bonuses.
Quick Start
The complete cycle in four steps.
Overview
Aden Laboratory progresses through research pages. Each page hides one correct boss card among several wrong cards. Selecting the correct card completes the page, permanently applies all effects assigned to it and automatically moves the character to the next page.
After four correct boss cards, which means four completed pages, so the Special Stage becomes available. This stage provides an additional randomized property whose strength depends on the level rolled.
How to Access Aden Laboratory
Click the menu button in the bottom right corner of the game interface.
Click the Aden Laboratory icon in the general menu to open the current research page.
Aden's Exploration Reports
| Source | Daily Amount | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Monster farming | 8 Reports | One Report is consumed for every card selected. |
Each card selection costs 1 Aden's Exploration Report and 25,000 Adena. Reports that are not used remain in the inventory, so missing a research session does not destroy the materials already farmed.
Card Research
Every page contains exactly one correct boss card. The success rate displayed at the bottom represents the number of correct cards remaining over the total unopened cards.
The game consumes one Report and 25,000 Adena.
It is burned and removed from the pool. The correct card remains, so the next probability improves. For example, 1/32 becomes 1/31.
Every effect shown at the top of the page is applied automatically. The page is completed and the next one opens immediately.
Pages and Permanent Effects
Completing a page requires finding its boss card. The effects displayed at the top are granted automatically, and a page may provide more than one statistic at the same time. Four completed pages unlock the Special Stage.
| Examples visible in Guardian | Purpose |
|---|---|
| P. Def. / M. Def. | Permanent defensive stats |
| Max HP / Max MP | Resource and survivability increases |
| Atk. Spd. / Casting Spd. | Attack or casting speed |
| Speed | Movement speed |
| HP Recovery Potions' Effect | Improves potion recovery |
Special Stage
After completing four normal pages, the Special Stage rolls an additional property. Clicking Begin Research costs 50,000 Adena and generates a new level according to the probabilities shown on the right side of the interface.
Begin Research generates a result but does not immediately replace the current setting.
The current setting remains at the top and the newly rolled setting appears below it.
If the new result is worse, simply roll again or leave. If it is better, click Property Replacement and pay 1,000,000 Adena to apply it.
Auto research
Auto research repeatedly spends 50,000 Adena per roll until the result reaches or surpasses the selected target level. This is a convenience tool, not a discount.
Checking All Active Effects
Click the magnifying glass icon in the top right corner of Aden Laboratory to open the Effect on Receipt panel. It separates Special Stage properties from the general effects earned through normal pages.
Efficient Strategy on a New Server
They are permanent materials and can be accumulated even when Adena is needed elsewhere.
Normal research gives permanent effects and wrong cards permanently improve the odds on the current page.
Early in the server, equipment and core progression usually provide better returns than repeatedly chasing a rare laboratory level.
Use the probability panel to estimate the risk and establish a strict Adena budget before starting.
Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Impact |
|---|---|
| Assuming failed cards waste progress | Every miss removes a wrong card and improves the next chance. |
| Thinking Begin Research equips the result | Property Replacement and 1 million Adena are required to apply it. |
| Setting a very rare Auto research target | The system can consume a very large amount of Adena automatically. |
| Trusting the summary as a complete stat list | Secondary page effects are active but may not be displayed. |
| Overspending during early progression | Other systems may offer substantially better value during the early stages of a server. |
