'''Dark study''' is the primary method through which players can unlock the abilities in the Anomaly DLC for their [[colony]]. It is unlocked by investigating the "fallen monolith". Certain [[buildings]] and [[gear]] require dark study in order to be built.

While regular research is a kind of stationary work, performed in a single room inside the colony, dark study must be done where the studied entity is located. Captured entities will be studied in their containment room, [[void monolith]] and [[obelisk]]s can't be moved and must be studied right where they spawn, while anomaly items such as [[golden cube]] or [[unnatural corpse]] can be moved to wherever you want to study them.

Each anomaly entity gives either basic or advanced study points when studied, which go to the active basic or advanced study project. At first, the [[void monolith]] and all encountered entities will give basic study points. But eventually entities that give advanced study points will appear, and the monolith can also be attuned to give advanced points instead of basic points. These study points are not interchangeable, basic study project can not be progressed by studying entities that give advanced points, and vice versa. So care should be taken to ensure that both types of study points are available for studying. No dark study project can be progressed by researching on a research bench.
 
−
 
 
−
Unlike researching, studying speed is not determined by the researcher's intellectual skill, but by their studying efficiency, which can be improved by the [[voidsight serum]]. Studying speed also depend on the condition of the entity being studied. Captured entities give more study points if the containment strength is high, and obelisks give more points if their activity level is high. Different types of captured entities also give different amount and type of study points.

== Void study ==
 
−
{{Ideology|section=1}}
 
−
The [[Ideoligion#Void_study|void study]] precept multiplies the amount of knowledge gained from studying by {{Bad|50%}}, {{Bad|75%}}, {{Good|125%}}, or {{Good|150%}}, depending on which level of the precept you have. For example, a [[sightstealer]] provides 1.7 basic study every 2 days, and with a 150% study rate, that would become 2.55 basic study every 2 days.

−
== Analysis ==
 
−
As the speed of dark study is not affected by intellectual skill, it should not be assigned to you main researcher to let them focus on regular researching. The studying pawn should still have some intellectual skill to reduce the time spent studying.
