Wreckage on Dantooine Map<\/h2>\n

Are you the kind of player who enjoys finding every quest and secret in the game? This interactive map of the Crash Site Outpost on Dantooine has every point of interest marked so you can find your way around more easily in Star Wars: The Old Republic.<\/em><\/p>\n

Zone Buffs<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The Dantooine Dynamic Encounters take place in a hazardous area of Dantooine, the Dantooine Biomes, where dangers like freezing, acid baths, lava and the mysterious sporefall poison can harm you before you ever even run into an enemy. As you rank up your Galactic Sustainability Institute Reputation, and explore the area, you\u2019ll get access to a bunch of different buffs and unlocks that\u00a0 make the area easier. This guide is purely about the buffs and unlocks.<\/p>\nDantooine Biomes Buffs and Unlocks Guide<\/a>\n

Spore-Tending Units<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The Spore-Tending Units in the Dantooine Biomes are dangerous floating droids that give off a toxic debuff that will quickly kill your character if you don\u2019t take the right precautions. While you are mostly supposed to avoid them as a hazard in the area, there are two special secret hidden achievements called\u00a0Spore Thing<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Violent Tendencies\u00a0<\/strong>you can get by gathering a group up and defeating them.<\/p>\nSpore-Tending Unit Dantooine Biomes Achievement<\/a>\n

Reputation Vendors<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Inside the main hangar when landing on the Dantooine Crash Site, you’ll find a lady simply named “GSI Material Support”. This vendor sells not only reputation rewards but many buff unlocks for improved quality of life while doing your Biomes missions for the day.<\/p>\nDantooine Biomes Rewards Guide<\/a>\n

Travel<\/h2>\n

\" \" \"<\/p>\n

Most planets have multiple ways to get around besides on foot or speeder – you can take the taxi points and fly around, the quick travel point which are an instant teleport, or the heroic shuttles \/ transports which are granted when you pick up heroic quests for the planet.<\/p>\n

Taxis in the biomes are NOT unlocked by default. You need to buy a pass (they aren’t permanent, either) once at the Friend reputation rank. Then, you can click on and use speeders located at each camp.<\/p>\n

Quick travel points are unlocked once you have walked near the quick travel point at least once. You can find your quick travel by pressing ‘p’ on your keyboard and going to the ‘General’ tab. Dantooine Biomes only has the one quicktravel located in between each of the three biomes. There isn’t even a quicktravel back to base.<\/p>\n

Dantooine Biomes does have these new tunnels located in each biome that can also help you get around, but they also require a pass, bought from the reputation vendor at Champion rank reputation. These cost 60,000 a pop and are consumed on usage. Hope it wasn’t a two-way trip!<\/p>\n

Secrets<\/h2>\n

No Sense of Direction<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

On a very rare occasion, you will see a lost Researcher, often near one of the glowing blue terminals hidden around. When you select them and get close, you can \u201cgive directions\u201d to them to help them get back to their camp. Then they run off. If you manage to find them all over time, you\u2019ll get the No Sense of Direction secret hidden achievement.<\/p>\nDantooine Biomes No Sense of Direction Secret Achievement Guide<\/a>\n

Geological Aptitude<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

To get the secret Level Five Geological Aptitude achievement, you\u2019ll first need to find the hidden secret Level Five Geological Aptitude Badge, then find the hidden Rock in the Dantooine Biomes area. While this achievement does not require you to find them, there are also a bunch of scattered Datapads telling the story of why there\u2019s a strange rock hidden out in the middle of nowhere, and how to find it if you aren\u2019t following a guide or are naturally curious about exploring.<\/p>\nDantooine Biomes Geological Aptitude Secret Guide<\/a>\n

Well, Well, Well<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Located on the Research Camp Perimeter, you can jump in it and\u2026 well at least the first time you jump down there, you might not die! This will give you the achievement\u00a0Well, Well, Well.<\/strong><\/p>\nDantooine Biomes Hidden Well Achievement<\/a>\n

Botanical Mysteries<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

If you enjoy exploring the Dantooine Biomes, the\u00a0A Botanical Mystery\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0A Botanical Mystery II<\/strong>\u00a0hidden achievements send you with a pair of secret botanical scanners to look for mystery flowers in the Dantooine Crash Site\u2019s biomes.<\/p>\nDantooine Biomes Botanical Mystery Secret Achievement<\/a>\n
