Disagree with OP, Biochem is fine, the only advantage is that u can re-use the consumables. http://db.darthhater.com/items/18626...ortitude_stim/ for instance is the same as the rakata fortitude stim. So non-biochem do not have a disadvantage, just that ppl dont have the recipes for the Rakata-level stims and such widely. give it time.
