Weapons research debris are excavation hotspots located in Stormguard Citadel - Research & Development north-west excavation site that players can excavate after reaching level 85 Archaeology.

The hotspots initially appear as aerated sediment, requiring uncovering before becoming usable. Uncovering the hotspots yields a one-time reward of 245.5 Archaology experience.
