You should make research points into a physical thing to collect around the map

I've seen the machine where you get points but I think you should make those into real holdable, they should be decently rare and when you pick them up it disappears an you gain a research point and make it an extremely rare drop from monsters.

so gambling..? people are going to bait giant or angler to farm research points

[still ermine]

You already do that with other mob drops.

I vote this good

Yea I guess so but it will still be a rare drop from everything like a 1/200 chance so it’s not insanely overpowered
