Capacity Boosters
Capacity Boosters is a rare tier 4 society technology (Biology) in Stellaris 4.5.2. Its base cost is 12,000 research. It needs Selected Lineages. Console: research_technology tech_capacity_boosters.
How to get Capacity Boosters
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 35) and its weight modifiers. Tier 4 opens after 6 tier 3 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

In the game
We leave nothing to chance, no matter the cost. Through exacting curation of DNA banks do we build the leaders of tomorrow.

How do I get Capacity Boosters in Stellaris?
Research Selected Lineages first (3 technologies in the whole chain); then Capacity Boosters can be drawn as one of the 3 society research options. It is a rare technology: its draw weight is low, and some are only offered after an event, a relic or a special project. It also has conditions (see Requirements on this page).
What is the ID of Capacity Boosters?
The technology's ID is tech_capacity_boosters. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_capacity_boosters (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Capacity Boosters cost?
12,000 society research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
