Biotics in Andromeda Galaxy speculations

I guess the more basic elements of the periodical table have to be the same across the universe, but since the emergence exotic elements might depend on special conditions (like supernovas) some might be bountiful in some areas and rare in others.

If eezo is rare in Andromeda, that could lead to interesting situations. Maybe an early quest is to repair or find the equipment to extract eezo? Maybe the deposits are under the protection of warrior monks? Maybe their immediate response to biotics is to burn them at the stake?

Well, we know that eezo is really rare and that human biotics weren't even a thing until they started using mass effect technology and had a little shipping accident. They got the mass effect technology from the Protheans and they got it from whatever the Reapers left behind. Thessia has a lot of element zero and it was long assumed that this was the reason for the Asari's natural biotic abilities. That is until ME3, when it was revealed that the Protheans probably genetically engineered them that way.

So if you have a galaxy without mass effect technology, how would you get embryos exposed to the stuff in the womb? The chance of that happening would be extremely low.

I could totally see a situation where the Archon view biotics as heretical, and we arrive to an....INQUISITION

Well, chances are they will disrupt some stereotypes and give unorthodox weapons to orthodox classes.

I expect there to be eezo and biotics, and Mass Relays. Andromeda will just have developed different ways of accessing what we're already used to.

Yes, eezo is rare and biotics are hard to come by; that is true. However, the logical encounter rate for anything in fiction is never realistic. Trillions of people in the galaxy, but only Liara was the most skilled in deciphering Prothean artifacts. Trillions of people in the galaxy, but Wrex was the last Krogan to solo a thresher maw; so on and so forth.

There being Andromedean biotics doesn't negate the rarity of biotics since 95% of encounters will be with special people by our cast of special people. And it'd be done for gameplay's sake.

I have a feeling that the "Black/blue floaty tar-metal" stuff that we see in the trailers serves a somewhat similar purpose in the Andromeda galaxy that Eezo did in the MW. Although i am not basing this off anything, just a personal, little theory.
