No one has done all of both, but some players have confirmed that they have completed ALL of the crafting research. Since this research is under it's own tab and completing 20 of these unlocks the racial horse, one would assume unlocking the second racial research would be tied to this tab.
I also understand the Temple of Reason mystery has been solved, and was just looking for a world location that would link to the description of the Elven Spirit Bow.
Since the GM's have confirmed that it is unlockable, and we can safely assume that it is tied to crafting research but can also confirm that simply researching is not enough. It would stand to reason that the secret must lay in a combination of research and a world location, especially since other mysteries involve locations around the world of Illyriad.

It could be unlocked through trade research, or it might require certain buildings at certain levels combined with crafting research. For example the 'clues' regarding meditation maybe hinting that you need a level 20 mage tower.
For all we know there could even be some new locations that we are not aware of. Has anyone read through all the elven faction descriptions to see if there seem to be any clues amongst those. I seem to remember one of them is famed for its archers, perhaps they hold the secret.

I agree with the new locations, and possibly the mage tower thing since mana is a requirement for crafting. I do not agree that it would take all of the trade research as well, since that would require the trade buildings to simply discover a bow recipie and doesn't make much sense.
Elven factions are a good idea, as are new locations possibly on the map. I can't help but think there must be something, especially given the actual location given in the Dwarven Champion armor description.

Another avenue of thought would be building levels. Anyone with all bow or all crafting research try having a lvl 20 library and lvl 20 mage guild? It could be possible that a lvl 20 bowyer is required as well, seeing how the racial sword was unlocked after building the swordsmith.

Or maybe you would have to equip trueshots with bows and send them into combat. The number of troops and bows involved might be significant.The idea would be that the archers would bind a part of their spirit to the bows during warfare and get the discovery thus. Or maybe you even need to scavenge bows after a massive defeat to get the discovery.

The bow was introduced prior the ability to scavenge equipment.

So we can rule out defeat then. -maybe in a victorious city defense?

It's a possibility indeed. Also mentioned was possibly having to create a certain number of special bows, or at least 1 of every type of bow.

That would be a more simple solution I agree.
