2,500What Epigenetic Triggers does
Modifiers as the game prints them, from the technology's modifier block; then the unlock lines its research card shows.
- Unlocks Feature: Epigenetic TriggersAllows us to remove Presapient Traits from Biological Species through Species Modification.
How to get Epigenetic Triggers
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 75) and its weight modifiers. Tier 2 opens after 6 tier 1 technologies of the same area.

}Epigenetic Triggers: questions
How do I get Epigenetic Triggers in Stellaris?
Research Genome Mapping first; then Epigenetic Triggers can be drawn as one of the 3 society research options. It also has conditions (see Requirements on this page).
What does Epigenetic Triggers do?
It leads to Morphogenetic Field Mastery.
What is the ID of Epigenetic Triggers?
The technology's ID is tech_epigenetic_triggers. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_epigenetic_triggers (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Epigenetic Triggers cost?
2,500 society research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
