A List for Lotuscape Researching: all correct choices

This guide tries to list every research topic available, as well as the correct choices to make during the corresponding processes.

Weapon Skin

Notes: Unlike characters’ outfits, a weapon's appearance can be changed only by crafting, which means if you have crafted a new skin for a weapon and want to change it back to the original skin, you must enter Lotuscape. find the recipe for the original skin and do another crafting.
Once the crafting is done, click “OK” to change the weapon’s appearance. If you click “Cancel”, the system won't return the coins or materials, either ‾\_(ツ)_/‾
