SWTOR Bioanalysis Leveling Guide – How To Get This SWTOR Gathering Skill To The Level Cap!
In this post we are going to see how you can level Bioanalysis skill from 1 to 400 and basically with all these gathering skills there are 2 different ways to level up. The conventional way, like the gathering skills in other games like World of Warcraft, is to go around the game universe and “gather” the materials you need.
This is actually the best way, and as long as you know which planet you need to be on in each level, it’s the cheapest way in terms of credits you’ll spend.
However, there is another way to level up Bioanalysis and that is to send your teammates on missions to collect the materials. Both obviously have pros and cons, and the good thing is that using the quest path and sending your partner out to collect the materials works really well if you pick up the Bioanalysis skill later in the game.
That way you don’t have to keep going back and forth between planets.
So as long as you have enough credits, you can use the quest method to level this skill. Be careful though, it will cost around 15,000 credits to level this skill to 100 using this method.
Then, between levels 100 and 200, about 25,000 credits are needed as the cost of the missions increases.
Bioanalysis for levels 200-300 will cost a whopping 50,000 credits!
Lastly, to max out the skill and hit the level cap, you’ll find that levels 300-400 cost around 75,000 credits.
This is of course if you leveled ALL the skill through the quests alone and sent your partner to collect the materials and of course you could get some of that money back by putting the materials you gathered into the Galactic Trade Network.
However, if you’re just starting out the game and looking to level BioAnalysis, then I thought I’d put together a full leveling guide for you that tells you where you need to meet up at each level.
1-400 Bioanalysis Leveling Guide:
Bioanalysis levels from 1 to 90
When you start leveling this ability you should head to Dromund Kaas if you are Empire or Coruscant if you are Republic.
All you need to do is activate the Resources tab on the map and you will see plenty of places to farm for Bioanalysis here.
You’ll find plenty of places to farm here and it’s simply a case of running around and collecting bio-analysis from nodes. You can also level up to 90 here quite easily, as you’ll usually be doing your fetch quests as well, and you’ll find the nodes level up as you get to the end of the quests on this planet.
Bioanalytical levels 75-140
Next, you’ll want to head to Taris. Think the same thing he did on Dromund Kaas or Coruscant above and make sure you have the map set to locate resources. Although there are not that many nodes on Taris, if you stick close to the starting zones of the planet, you will be able to level up to 140 quite easily.
Again, the beauty of SWTOR is that it has the crew skill missions that you can send your partner on and this means that if you are having real trouble locating the nodes, you can improve this skill by doing this.
Bioanalysis Levels 140-175
If you need a bit of a boost and are having a hard time gathering in Taris, head to Nar Shaddaa and you can get to 175 pretty easily. Just head to the Red Light District area and you will find plenty of nodes to farm there.
Bioanalysis Levels 175-250
Next you need to head to Tatooine and you will be able to find plenty of nodes to farm, however this is for a reason. Tatooine is great for bioanalysis as it won’t be as crowded, but all the nodes are really spread out!
So make sure you have a speeder or if you don’t, it’s better to level this section using the quest skills and sending your partner back!
Bioanalytical levels 250-350
Here you have an option depending on the faction you play. You need to head to Hoth, Balsavis, Quesh, or Voss. The most important thing to remember with these planets is that for Bioanalysis the resources are quite scarce; however, if you’re looking, you’ll be able to level up here in time.
If you are ONLY going to farm I would suggest checking out Hoth first or reverting to using the Crew Skill quests for this skill to speed things up as long as you have the credits.
Bioanalysis levels 350-400
For the last leg of his quest to maximize the bioanalysis crew’s skill, he’ll be heading to Ilum or Corellia and the same here as the rest of the planets he’s been to as well. Turn on the resource option on your map and start collecting.
Again, you may want to use quest skills to speed this up and get to the level cap faster.
Well done, you just maxed out Bioanalysis!
