Coordinates:X: -350, Y: -290Additional information:[Republic Only – Bugtown]: You get this entry by killing the Colicoid Queen, located at X:-350, Y:-290. This mob is objective for bonus stage 4 part of the quest Food Chain (Republic quest). Entry to this area is at X:-190, Y:-290 in Bugtown.[Imperial] Version of the Codex is called Mutated Colicoid. It is found under the Bestiary category. We would like to thank Vyhih and spiff for additional information. Original Game Codex TextA highly intelligent and voracious insectoid race, Colicoids are relatively isolated in the galaxy, but their dedication to droid design and advanced technology have put them at the cutting edge of scientific research. They are not aggressive, strictly speaking, but they have little regard for other species despite their robust mercantile operations. To Colicoids, the technology trade is a useful means to an end… but a mildly distasteful one.Dedicated also to the improvement of their own species, a group of Colicoids calling themselves the Creation Nest aided the establishment of an experimental facility for mutating their own kind in Balmorra’s so-called “Bugtown.” They found that their mutated “cousins” were able to metabolize the toxic waste on the planet and made excellent, if unpredictable, weapons. The Colicoid emissaries were not deterred when Bugtown was overrun, hoping to continue to perfect the experiments in the future (albeit without the Balmorrans’ aid). |

You get this entry by killing the Colicoid Queen, located at -350, -290. This mob is objective for bonus stage 4 part of the quest Food Chain (Republic quest). Entry to this area is at -190, -290 in Bugtown.
The queen is directly west of where you enter this area part, its an underground section and in the Bugtown map is no entry indicator to this area. Hence I stated the entry location as well.
When I go to those exact coords for your entry point, all I see is an Imperial Medical Droid. Maybe it’s different for Empire?
i don’t think you can get it on Empire side Anon, it’s meant to be Republic only.
Then How are we to get the update without the Queen. Seems that is a major flaw in the Codex.
The Colicoid Queen is part of the Bounty Hunter quest line on the imperial side, but does not give this species codex entry (at least it didn’t to my Sith Warrior when I tagged along on all the quests with a BH).
For the empire side… I’ve killed all named Colicoids I could find, and did every heroic + bonus from Bugtown, and still no codex entry. I think it’s safe to assume that we can’t get it (not on Balmorra at least).
Don’t like to be rude here, but everything said here is junk, you people talk about a bestiary..
Colicoid Species this is, which means you need to find an item from them not kill something…
Which also means the X/Y are wrong from imps and reps
Not sure what you mean with your comment, Almost all bestiary entries I got from killing a particular kind of beast, some by just walking by them (usually neutral ones). You probably mean this is a species entry and as such it might require finding a datapad. Could be.
What he means is that this is a Species entry, not a bestiary entry. There *is* a bestiary entry for Colicoids and that is detailed elsewhere and can be gotten if you find the right collicoids.
He’s equally wrong about finding an item, however, since some Species entries *do* come from killing a member of the species as is the case for the Republic side of this quest.
Correction, no bestiary entry for Collicoids. It is still the case that some Species entries come from kills, however.
There is a bestiary entry related to the Colicoids.
Empire: Mutated Colicoid
I can confirm that: received the entry for “Colicoid” killing the Colicoid Queen, with a Jedi Knight (Republic).
Note: It seems to be obtainable only by Republic side. Empire can’t even access Colicoid Queen’s Nest area.
On inquisitors’ “into the pit” -mission i aquired the “mutated colicoid” codex entry. Upon exiting the quest area, via killing three mutated colicoid drones.
Republic Only – Bugtown. Collicoid Queen’s Nest. This is inside a fortified bunker built into the mountain at the western edge of the map. Entrance at x-206 y-293. Kill the Collicoid Queen.
Imperial: This is Republic only. There is a different codex entry, Mutated Colicoid, under the Bestiary category.
Ok, it all comes down to this: THIS IS BUGGED FOR IMP SIDE! Bioware must either remove this codex entry or make it obtainable for imps as well.
Yes it works fine for reps as you can see above.
This species codex entry has nothing whatsoever to do with the bestiary codex entry “mutaded collicoid”. so do not refer to that.
Personaly I think Bioware should make this obtainable for imps too.
There are other codex entry where the same creature occur in both species and bestiary,
and since they are two different things, thats no reason to remove it.
SO PLZ GADDAM BIOWARE FIX ALL THE CODEXBUGS !!
ye how hard can it be for bioware to just fix all the codex entrys? yet another planet where its impossible to get 100% codex entry. 🙁
so for my imp agent:
Plantes; Balmorra; Codex Entries Found: 28/29.
Grrrr….
oke, so I have seen comments spreading out from 2012 to 2016, and this thing is still not fixed for imperial players, that is kinda disgusting (comment made in December of 2021)
