It appears that Neurotoxin Recovery and Nanite Control have been removed/renamed to:-

Nanobiology
Rank 2
Pre-reqs: Biology L1, Science L4
Side Effect Modifier -5%
Bonus Per Level:
"20% additional duration of attribute booster effects"

AND

Neurobiology
Rank 5
Pre-reqs: Biology L1, Science L4, Nanobiology L1
Negative Side Effect Chance Bonus -5%
Bonus Per Level:
"5% gain to booster effects"

From the descriptions, it looks as if CCP are perhaps refocussing the skills on extending booster bonusses rather than reducing the side effects to the player. However, it's a bit confusing because the actual attributes appear to be the same as the current skills on TQ.

Apologies if this has been covered, but a quick scan of threads didn't have it mentioned.

No idea. Nanobiology has the same bonus as Biology. Neurotoxin Recovery, on the other hand, currently affects side effects. There currently is no boost skill (good boosters already do a lot).

From old general discussion thread, two of the skills is for duration length extension and the last one for effect strength modification. They stated in that thread there would be no negative side effects now and just about as potent as they were before with max skills. CCP didnt say that just the players.

On sisi now I have Nanobiology and Neurobiology instead of Nanite Control and Neurotoxin Recovery so no skillpoint reimbursement.

Booster Changes

Slightly lower potency but none of the old side effects. Like paint chips, but different.
