It moves approxamitly twice as fast after this is upgraded. 150 150

The Citadel of Audn is a pretty important building. It is required for many of the super power units in the Protoss Fleet. You only have one possible upgrade here, so its pretty much a building you just build off in the corner and forget about.

Robotics Facility    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites   Building Type: Robotic Units         Building Cost: 200 200 Build Time: 60 Requires: Cybernetics Core Shields/Hit Points: 450/450 Allows You to Make: Shuttle Robotics Support Bay Observatory

The Robotics facility is important for much of your strategic movements. You can produce the Reaver and the Shuttle here for the legendary Reaver Drop. You also produce Observers here which are vital for recon.

Stargate    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites   Building Type: Robotic Units         Building Cost: 200 200 Build Time: 80 Requires: Cybernetics Core Shields/Hit Points: 600/600 Allows You to Make: Scout Arbiter Tribunal Fleet Beacon

The Stargate is where you build all the Protoss Air Units other than the Shuttle and the Observer. It is a good idea, like the Gateway, to build 3 or 4 of these by the late game so you can build a massive air force.

Templar Archives    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites                         .   Building Type: Psi Warrior         Building Cost: 100 200 Build Time: 60 Requires: Citadel of Adun Shields/Hit Points: 500/500 Allows You to Make: Templar Dark Templar Arbiter Tribunal This allows your Templars to cast the most dreaded spell in the game, the Psionic Storm. 200 200 This is where you research Hallucenation for your Templar. 150 150 Khydarin Amulet increases your Templars' maximum energy to 250. 150 150 Mind Control is researched at the Templar Archives. This is the main spell of the Dark Archon. 200 200 Maelstrom is researched at the Templar Archives for the Dark Archon. 100 100 Argus Talisman increases the maximum energy of your Dark Archons to 250. 150 150

The Templar Archives has many upgrades at it. It is also required for some of the most powerful Protoss Units such as the Archon and the Arbiter.

Robotics Support Bay    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites   Building Type: Special Units         Building Cost: 50 100 Build Time: 30 Requires: Robotics Facility Shields/Hit Points: 450/450 Allows You to Make: Reaver This upgrades your Scarab Damage to 125 per attack. 200 200 Scarab Capacity increases your maximum Scarab capacity to 10. 200 200 Gravitic Boosters greatly increase the movement speed of the Shuttle. 200 200

This building is required for you to build Reavers. It is also recomended if you are planning on using Shuttles to any extent.

Observatory    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites   Building Type: Special Units         Building Cost: 150 100 Build Time: 60 Requires: Robotics Facility Shields/Hit Points: 250/250 Allows You to Make: Observer Gravitic Boosters greatly increase the movement speed for the Observer. 150 150 Sensor Array slightly increases the sight range for the Observer. 150 150

The Observatory is an incredibly useful building, because the Observer is too good to bypass. The sight upgrade isn't all that important to research, but I would greatly suggest upgrading the Observer speed.

Arbiter Tribunal    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites   Building Type: Special Units         Building Cost: 300 300 Build Time: 60 Requires: Templar Archives Stargate Shields/Hit Points: 250/250 Allows You to Make: Arbiter Recall is researched at the Arbiter Tribunal for your Arbiters. 150 150 This researches Stasis Field for use by your Arbiters. 150 150 Khydarin Core increases the maximum energy of the Arbiter to 250. 150 150

Although it requires many prerequisit buildings before you can get to the Arbiter Tribunal, it is still recomended that you strive to build up to this building, as the Arbiter can greatly sway a battle in favor or yourself.

Fleet Beacon    Stats Upgrades/Special Abilites                   Building Type: Special Units         Building Cost: 300 200 Build Time: 60 Requires: Stargate Shields/Hit Points: 500/500 Allows You to Make: Carrier Corsiar Gravitic Thrusters increases the speed of the Scout. 100 100 Apial Sensors increases the sight and range of the Scout. 200 200 This increases the maximum Interceptor capacity of the Carrier to 8. 100 100 Disruption web is researced here for use by your Corsairs. 200 200 Argus Jewel increases the maximum energy of the Corsair to 250. 100 100

If you are going to build air units, it is a definite must that your build one of these. They allow you to do much more with your Air Force than bulid Arbiters and unupgraded Scouts. It also looks pretty cool to have one sitting around your base.
