Barbaric helms (3 silk bolts, 1 mithril, 3 t5 mats and a silk spool) are a cheap and easily-available source of research notes. With the big influx of players for Halloween, T5 materials like large bones and large claws are cheapest they’ve been all 2025, and silk and mithril are consistently cheap and plentiful too. At current prices, I crafted 1000 barbaric helms for 27g of material, and researched them for around 5000 notes, which is 54c per research note.
If you feel that you’d like to stock up on research notes before the new expansion, or if you’re looking to craft Gen3 legendary weapons or obsidian armour, now may be a good time to convert your gold to research notes before the expansion brings in new material sinks that change the market again.
