I have heard that for mediums, 7 is the best extraction rate.

So do the heavies have a max extraction rate of 10? And do solars and fusions have higher extraction rates as well?

Thanks for any replies.

I got a 7 and it seemed to pull exactly the amount I'd expect to pull when it was a 4. More testing needs to be done, for sure, because my math gets fuzzy after 11PM, and I started and ended the test at midnight...

The 10 rate heavys definitely pull as expected. I placed a 10 rate heavy gas harvester beside a normal 7 rate one and am getting about 3k more a day from it.

The people with +structure experimentation tapes are making at least 11s at the moment, to answer the original question.

I am currently making fusions at 16 with no extra experimentation points.

Some have gotten to +4kg rate from base...

My experience is the same as Deoka - fusions 16, heavies 10, mediums 7. I have no tapes, and only good (UT 934) steel.

I have +3 and +2 experiment tapes and can make 17kg/hr fusions and 11kg/hr minerals. Can't do the ones based on the fluidic drilling pump units yet because I need an amazing success on my experimentation to get it high enough. 71% efficiency still gets 10kg/hr.

Thanks for all the replies, I really appreciate it. I just started mining my own resources so these replies are really helping decide how to go about my buisness. Thanks.
