I'm a master architech and have been making BER 13 Heavy Minerals since Jan. Since I custom build only haven't made any in about a month. Have an order for some and went to make them using the SAME MATERIALS as the last order,which I got BER13, and am only able to get BER12( no failures all great successes 95% efficiency). Has anyone else had this problem ? Has there been a change???

the standard problem in these cases is that the omu is not fully experimented, check your omu, even if it is up at BER6 it needs to be experimented to around 90% or over, stopping as soon as you hit 6 is often not enough. Try making a new batch of omus and use these, that should solve the problem.

Thanks for your help that worked, what still baffles me is the omu I used,in the BER12, were the same ones that made BER13 a month ago

It could be that they are right on the borderline and that one experimentation result a month ago was better than what you got this time. If you use your experimentation points in batches of 2 or more at a go you only get the result of the last exp attempt reported, however the 'hidden' attempts still count towards the full result. (this appears to be the case anyway, since some have reported their result going down even thoughthey get a reported 'positive' success, this can be explained by the 'hidden' results containing a 'crit')
Or it could be that they are just so close and that between then and now the math has changed slightly and for example their full percentage rounds down somewhere now instead of up, or something like that.

Ok since this is a post about Large Harvesters .. I have been an Architect since launch .. just this week I have had a 50% rate in crits. ( I crit on half of my Larges now) I never ever critted like this before .. this isn't a single day thing... it has been going on for over a week! I am picky!! I hate to sell less than BER 13's so a 50% loss is really making me a bit aggitated lol. I personally destroy anything less than a 12. and I am getting only half to come out now due to a rediculous rise in Crits. Anyone else had more crits that usual?

try crafting in a research center, if you are experimenting one point at a time, its risky
If it gets to the point where you are losing money, use bespin port during the experimentation and make a schematic.
