I stand corrected.

Oh it has one effect -- your factory time is longer for making the walls.

Get a +43 Structure crafting station and eat some enhancers then make your schematic then put it in your factory. You don't need to be a 12 point at all, I made 13 BER harvisters with 135k hoppers the first day I made arch with marginal reasourses. It took 3 tries to get the larger hopper but then I made a draft and put it in the factory. Hope this helps. I say if you don't have enough resourses or sub componets to build at least 10 per draft do it by hand. Results will be less but it can be done with a good crafting station and food enhancers

On second thought I'm pretty sure you need 9 points or more in order to hit maximum BER on harvesters.
This is why: when we said above that we got the BER 13's with 6,7 or 8 points that was in the final combine. I know the other day I made a heavy and hit BER 13 with 7 points. BUT that was using a 99% harvesting mechanism. And you need all the experiment points in order to get that good of a harvesting mechanism.
The final BER is a combination of the mining component experiment result and the final experiment result. You can hit max BER with a combo of about 176%. If you divide that by two then its 88%. To get 88% in experimentation then you'll need 9 points.
Conclusion: You need 9 points or more to hit maximum BER.

I have done it with 9pts before. You have to have great resources but it can be done....

With BER 6 main sub-components (Ore mining unit, turbo fluidic drill, etc) and high-quality steel you can do it. My steel is average 930 in the relevant stats. The bad news is I'm down to less than 100K of that steel. The good news is I picked up a million units of stuff averaging 948.6 in a recent spawn.
Use pyollian cake and bespin port, and if you can find an architect apron that'll help your assembly. Don't waste good resources on the chemicalcomponent of the final combine--use lube oil. I've hit BER 13 in six points on a few occasions, seven often, and usually eight.

Of course, twice after doing so in six I got crit fails on experimenting up the hopper size... Grrr
