there are plenty of good new artifact ideas but the simple fact is we can't just add them to the current CT lab list

Those who don't have a full CT lab can be spending millions trying to get those last 2-3 modules
Those who have a full CT lab are gonna spend so much more getting each new arti

i propose there being a secondary CT lab or an upgrade to the current one that unlocks another set of CT lab items

and if you wanna kill 2 birds with 1 stone make this CT lab cost badges instead of research

+1 possible upgrade it using 500 blues (donated over time by legion) and like 10 discoveries to reduce cost per try by 5k rp. This would be able to be done multiple times with the cost going up ( possible extra 500 blues and 5 discoveries per level). Along with this we could have each discovery have a couple levels of upgrades reducing the number of items and energy used but that would be done on a per item basis Velox and ageis costing thousands of reds, silvers and possibly greens per upgrade to keep it balanced.

-1 It's fine. It means that only the very top level legions or those with dedicated researchers will have all the Lab Items.
