My guess is that Kolto was somehow powered by The Force; a healing microbe, perhaps, and when so much of it was used for greed, that perhaps soured the force in the area, nearly killing off the microbe and greatly reducing their healing powers.

@idontwantahandlethough 2 года назад
Wow, you ARE a devil! I really wish I had a Men In Black Memory Eraser Thingy for whenever somebody reminds me that The Force is actually a microscopic organism. So, so, so dumb. (But given the stupid premise that SW presents, that's a pretty good theory you got there! And no, I don't have a better idea for what The Force is, but I don't need one. They shouldn't have ever explained it at all!)
@keeganlafferty1395
@keeganlafferty1395 2 года назад
that is a plausible theory, the Selkath's greed in exploiting their Kolto reserves for economic gain could have caused some disruption in the bit of The Force that made Kolto's healing properties possible, diminishing the quantity and quality of Kolto
@OnBrandRP
@OnBrandRP 2 года назад
I like this theory but I feel like it's a bit more simple than that. Kolto seems to behave like our own fossil fuels do and as such they could of simply used up their reserves and started to run out and Kolto itself seems to definitely have something to do with midichlorians. Odds are the planet just happened to have a large amount of midichlorians and sadly they started to diminish as the Kolto itself was being extracted. Then there could of been the souring with the sith potentially playing a part.

According to rumours ingame kolto may have been created by an ancient shark/piranha-like "fish" on the bottom of Manaan's oceans that during the era of the Infinite empire was dry land (As the starmap is found at the bottom near the Rakert rift. But it could at the same time have been Force related as well. Possibly a callback to the worms of Arrakis and the spice.

I have a stronghold on Manaan on SWTOR. Had it there for a long time until i moved it back to Tatooine. Now I kinda regret moving it from Manaan due to Manaan being a smaller stronghold than Tatooine. Manaan feels quite majestic but the fraska sharks often terrified me. To be honest, the ocean terrifies me more than any biome on land. Something about it's abyss sends shivers down my spine....I think it maybe the fact that i cant see what's below me and that the ocean feels very alien to me. Or it could be the Jaws movies LOL.

Bacta was in the pc/console game Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast (release 03/06/02) as the portable health canister used to heal on command. the game Kotor didnt come out until a year + later. if anything Bacta was replaced by kolto, so you seem to have it backwards; as Kolto is still active as the defacto healing ability in the current SWTOR mmo.

Ayo- to anyone reading this and thinking about getting the KOTOR2 port that just came out on the switch: don't buy it yet. There's a very, very game breaking bug that makes the game essentially unfinishable (kind of. it's doable but you need to use the cheat menu). I'd wait a few weeks until they fix it. Also, the company that ported it is apparently not very good at delivering on their promises to fix the bugs they said they'd fix, so it very well might never be fixed. That said, KOTOR2 has been an incomplete buggy mess since it came out originally, and Obsidian never fixed it either. So I guess it's technically an authentic experience lol. I bought it without knowing and I'd still def recommend buying it if you don't mind buggy games, it's an awesome [yet unfinished] game any way you slice it :) Edit: also, I really love that you took the time to edit in a correction when you said "unreplaceable" instead of "unreplicable" or "irreplaceable". If you hadn't pointed it out, I'd bet less than a tenth of a percent of people would have even realized that what you said wasn't actually a word. That's quite respectable 😂

I always thought that Bacta itself was made up of Kolto. I thought it was an amalgamation of several different substances found throughout the galaxy which each have incredible healing properties, but when combined creates a gel-like super healing fluid called Bacta. I didn’t think that Kolto was it’s own thing wholly separate to Bacta and that when [Spoilers] When Revan kills the Selkath’s sacred Kolto rift guardian and destabilized the Kolto rift and in turn effectively destroyed all Kolto production it caused the substance to become exceedingly rare and effectively phased out overnight. Which in turn ruined the Selkath’s powerful geopolitical position that allowed them to remain neutral and isolationist in an increasingly violent galaxy. Thus forever dooming them to irrelevancy. By the time of the Clone Wars, they were basically unheard of. A backwater world with an isolationist and xenophobic society who wanted little to do with the outside galaxy. In Star Wars, being xenophobic only leads irrelevancy and stagnation.

Cheap, easier to replicate and make, and not vulnerable to possible tampering from a singular source. Just like the telegram over the Pony Express, if I say so myself.

Seen as there was one of the ancient Star Maps close to were the Kolto was harvested on the Hrakert Rift station, I'm wandering if that had something to do with the Kolto (and the Giant Firaxan shark) being there. I'm wandering if The star forge being destroyed had a knock on effect. Seen as Rakatan technology was powered by the force maybe it was the force that powered kolto, (I saw another comment with this theory) and after the star forge was destroyed it stopped powering the Star Map and possibly any other Rakatan/Force technology that was also producing Kolto. Bit of along shot, but that's my theory

@@75JUNAKI I disagree there there's only one person that can defeat Nihilus...and that's the exile...most people don't get that when you fight him in Kotor2 he is extremely weekend.

No I'd kill them all lol...especially if I know I'm Revan at this point...I would remove the judge panel....well part of the judge panel....the part right above their shoulders...

That whole SWTOR portion sounds like a bunch of writers going back and forth, and doesn’t really make sense. Kolto was on a steep decline, but now it’s important again for the purpose of a new Sith-Republic war, so they’re able to use it for neutrality again, but actually they can’t because kolto isn’t as important anymore, so all their cities get destroyed, but nevermind here’s a new one, also kolto is important again and can be used for neutrality, but not, because they’re supporting the Republic, somehow, and the devastated Selkath species is fine now. Just a whole lot of not much happening, huh. Also, what was with the bizarrely humanoid Selkath in some parts? Human hybrids?

There is something i remember reading or hearing a couple years ago that may have been reasons for kolto to still be active on the market. It is hipoalergic, and can be reused. Bacta has the advantage of being able to be mass produced, and one of the main components (a kind of wheat) is easily produced in fertile worlds. However compared with kolto, there need to be variants with different dillution and extra chemicals for races that might be alergic to the base mixture. Kolto was natural, and altough was weaker than bacta on the later stages of the universe, was still used for both the most sensible races and as a cheaper alternative to bacta (since when the Empire conquered Manaan, the price of kolto tanked and was distributed as a cheap alternative). Also, it is described in books that after someone is released from a kolto tank, their full body is cleaned with vacuums, and the tank's used kolto is placed on a barrel to be filtered and reused. NOW! If i remember the pros and cons are... Bacta: PROS -Can be mass produced cheaply; -The mix had been improved for centuries (milenia?), and is still being spiced up; -Relatively easy to use and simple to package/store. CONS -Need variants for some races; -Leaves a bad taste on the mouth for a while to those who are placed on tanks (similar to rotten cereals, or stale bread/beer); -can't be recycled. Kolto: PROS -Can be reused after filtered; -Better for some races; CONS -Can only be produced in Manaan, and is nearly impossible to synthesize; -Lost quality with time (I do believe was the result of overproduction. Seems it started to improve slightly just before the clone wars); Another curiosity. If i remember correctly, bacta is described to be kind of gelatinous, whereas kolto is described to be oily. Kolto could be vaporized to cover a bigger area and give a slow but effective treatment for smaller wounds.

This actually has a real world comparison a type of bat that created guano used to be the worlds best fertilizer , but the source was so valuable that people kept invading these bat's home into extinction only after the extinction are we now using a second best mineral phosphates . Thus I conclude Kolto was the better , was driven into extinction by high demand , bacta is like the second best but used more often due to abundance.

For Bacta; It depends on its purity. At around 75-80% purity a person can recover from a blaster wound in roughly 6 hours. Corran Horn in Legends had a broken back, shattered collar bone, blaster bolt to the gut and a broken knee and was out the bacta tank in about 8-10 hours with 90% purity bacta. With standard bacta he would have been in for roughly 3-4 days possibly longer. I don't know much about kolto.

The reason Kolto was used more is like you said. It was cheaper then bacta. That and people will only buy things they know and trust. So since Bacta being new or not used as much meant people stuck with Kolto.

Technically is not wrong. There are other miracle healing agents in the galaxy, and by then bacta already existed (it was created at around 4100 BBY). But bacta was still on the experimental phase on non-vratix around that time, and still exclusive to Thyferra. As the composition was still being tweaked, there was still possible risks and theories around other races using it, and there was no established way to pack and transport "beta-version" bacta, its price was astronomical (think the market value for a single dose was on the thousand credits). By the time, the only wide spreaded, affordable, and effective agent was kolto. And, of course, a selkath would promote the only major export Manaan has.
