i have noticed that having a survaying of 3 or 4 only makes a range difference not Amount or Success difference. When i was in Survaying4 i've made as much amount of resources as i was in survaying 2. It seems to me. during one mining i would get about 10 failed to locate resources message. Also it seems that its rare to gain more or even 10 samples well sampling even if area is high in %. Does the Stats margen have something to do with this or im some stupied **edit**ing noobie

I'm not sure about "amount harvested" but the increased range is good enough for me. Esspecially since it's the ONE type of xp that I never needed to grind. I used the skill for the sake of using the skill . . . and occasionally got a bonus of getting better.

I don't believe I ever pulled 12 units of material until I got to Surver IV, and also like Lord Griffin, it's the range that helps most.

i've been able to pull a sample from MUCH lower concentrations with surv IV, i think i even pulled a couple units from a 10% spot. compare that to the 30% you normally need.

I'm at Survey IV. I've noticed the following (could be just my perceptions)...

1. I fewer failure rates (no sample found) with higher concentrations.

2. I can get 12 unit samples.

3. I can sample in low concentrations (teen %) to get samples. This is
useful since I don't have to walk all over creation to get a quick sample
to check stats. (Very useful during shifts)

4. As as we all know, range is better at IV.
