Map of the Laboratory.

The Laboratory is the Spiral Order's research and development facility located in the Garrison district of Haven. Players have access to several utilities in The Lab.

Points of Interest

  • The Laboratory is where the Spiral Order's biotechs work, alongside various researchers and Battle Sprite specialists. The Lab has limited power, relying on a barely capable backup generator salvaged from the crashed Skylark.
A regular Alchemy Machine is located in the Northern area of the laboratory (indicated by Map-icon-Alchemy-Machine.png)
A Sprite Food Alchemy Machine is located in the West area of the laboratory near Biscotti (indicated by Map-icon-Alchemy-Machine.png)

Denizens

Many miscellaneous NPCs such as Biotech and Geo Knight are around the Laboratory repairing escape pods, doing researches, and messing with consoles.

Notes

Like other areas on Cradle, the laboratory is a location with sub-locations as time goes on. On the loading screen, "Laboratory: The Lab" might seem redundant, but this flexibility is needed considering Cradle as a whole - see the 4-2 Interface-icon-PvE.png Mission: A New Threat for a different loading screen to the same location, which says "A New Threat: The Lab." This indicates that entities of interest are located in "The Lab" - a specific floor or location in an overall area, while titles like "Laboratory" refer to the entire area, structure (or "building"), mission, and so on.
