Desert of Revelation: A mage entering here will lower the cost of researching enchantment and thaumaturgy by 20%. Or provide a 20% boost to research in these areas, depending on how you see it.

VERY different effects. First helps more if you have lots of researchers, second helps a lot if research takes lots of research point (i.e. you are researching high levels).

Maybe instead of a multiplier, mage entering the site would count as 15 research points, possibly towards certain school only... E.g. Fire 1 Acolyte entering the Desert would count as 15 research points.
Other than that, maybe the mage would counts as 10 + his own RP in research. E.g. a Sage would count for 10 + 8 RPs (Sages have 8 RP, don't they).
Or a third possibility, a mage would count as twice his RP for research. E.g. Fire 1 Acolyte (3 RP) would count for 6 RP, 8 RP Sage would count for 16.
It wouldn't be a big bonus, but it would be something. And if the researcher's RPs were multiplied, some Rainbows could be insane if they found it early...
