What Entropic Recursion does

Modifiers as the game prints them, from the technology's modifier block; then the unlock lines its research card shows.

  • Future Glimpse: Omega Theory
    Future Glimpse An inkling of coming perspectives and past affections. Half of a whole, useless on its own; when complete may allow our scientists to stumble upon the Omega Theory technology.

How to get Entropic Recursion

Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 60) and its weight modifiers. Tier 3 opens after 6 tier 2 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

It needs no other technology.
