Ok, I will admit my research sucks. I got the Box from the Sage on the evil side. I tried to combine words of sufferign and rune of helix and it says you are too inexperienced to even possibly consider this combine. But why is it say level 1 to attain and NO TRIVIAL?
If you bother to read what the NPC has to say, he mentions that this box was used to take a spell and break it down to its components, kind of like the opposite of the old world research containers.
actually if i thinking right this item is an upgraded 4-slot research tome unlike the old world 2 slot ones...WOOT bout time they give me a use for that skill..
