Biomaterial

This page was last updated during patch v1.2.1843. The current patch is .
== Description ==
Biomaterial is one of the three main types of resources in Firefall. Like most materials for crafting, it is looted in raw form, then refined at a molecular printer station for use in crafting.
==Crafting Components==
The crafting components created from raw biomaterials can be used to manufacture new equipment or can be sold on the market for credits. Raw s are refined into crafting components at the Molecular Printer. There is a 1:1 refining ratio from raw biomaterial to crafting component. Example: 20 Bone Fragments = 20 Carbon Powder
Biomaterial comes in different rarities and tiers, depending on the exact area and zone where creatures drop it.
== Drops by Region ==
====Coral Forest====
Coral Forest is the best place to find Tier 1 and Tier 2 biomaterials. 
Biomaterial 	Icon	Dropped by 	Tier 	Description 	Crafting Component Created
Shell Fragment 	 	Creatures level 1 - 20 	Tier 1	Unrefined chitious material 	Chitin Fibers
Melded Chitin Fragments	 	Chosen and some melding creatures	Tier 1	Retrieved from Chosen remains 	Chitin Fibers 
 Dark Crystite
Bone Fragments 	 	Creatures level 20 - 29 	Tier 2	Bones and other carbon-based materials	Carbon Powder

====Sertao====
The biomaterials found in Sertao are the same as in the Coral forest with the addition of Tier 3 biomaterials
Biomaterial 	Icon	Dropped by 	Tier 	Description 	Crafting Components Created
Biomass Sample 	 	Creatures level 30 - 39 	Tier 3	Frankly, it's gross. But it's filled with crystatic biomaterials, so you should refine it	Biopolymer Thread
Melded Muscle Tissue	 	Chosen and some Melding Creatures	Tier 3	Retrieved from Chosen remains 	Biopolymer Thread
 Dark Crystite
====Devil's Tusk====
Devil's Tusk has all of the same biomaterials as Coral Forest and Sertao, but with the addition of Tier 4 biomaterials.
Biomaterial 	Icon	Dropped by 	Tier 	Description 	Crafting Component Created
Crystatic Biofluids	 	Creatures level 40+ 	Tier 4	Extra terrestrial fluids and gels, infused with crystite	Crystatic Nucleotides
Melded DNA Sample 	 	Chosen and some Melding Creatures	Tier 4	Retrieved from Chosen remains 	Crystatic Nucleotides
 Dark Crystite
==Optional Components==
Certain creatures drop special components for equipment. These Optional Biomaterials are not refineable and are not dropped as frequently as the regular biomaterials. Recipe Unlocks from certain Vendors will require these optional components for Manufacturing. Example: The Barrier HMG for the Dreadnaught requires Brontodon Ivory in its recipe.
