Thread: Force Sensitive Surveying ( +20 ) : worth it?
If you have surveying 4, you won't see any benefit from it until you get the 4th box of FS surveying and then you'll get a 6 x 6 grid and (I think) 380m range on your survey tool.
It all comes down to whether or not that's important to you.

Really? Hmm that might be worthwhile.

Yeah and it's obvious the surveying interface was never meant to have that many numbers crammed onto it because they all start overlapping.
Yup, but it's oh so nice when tracking down that vein.
It's nice but not mandatory.
It just means I get to drive a little bit farther before I ping it again.

You sure about that? I have +27 (yes i know everything caps at +25) in BE clothing but I am still at the 5x5 320m grid. Though oddly enough it shows that my survey tools are capable enough to go past that. Just doesn't have the option in the set range menu.

Unless it changed pst CU this is not what it does.
You get more resouces per sample based on the same scale/rate as the bonus you got from the normal levels (every 10 pts being related to what % of the spawns rating you got in resouces). It worked out at the time to 1 more resouce (and therefor more xp) for every 2 boxes that I had invested. This meant I was pulling 10-12 resources on a 90%+ spawn on average.
I was never able to "unlock" or select a larger view range at all, on any device.

Straight to theQ:
Is it worth it to take the Surveying tree in FS Senses to increase your surveying abilities? Or is this is largely useless grind?
Then you're doing something wrong because I have had this skill for quite a while and I definitely get a much larger area. There are so many numbers crammed onto the screen that they overlap.

However, I didn't get this added range until I got FS survey 4, tho.
