Thread: What is the max modifier for veghash?
And if you're on starsider I'll pay well for the maximum possible veghash!
Thanks.
It is not a percentage but a skillmod of +30. Thus if you have Tracking I you'd harvest as if you'd have Tracking IV or you'd harvest better than a Master Scout at Novice Scout level for example.
A +50 in the harvesting skill (Scout -> Ranger) results in about 30% increased yields. Dunno if the result of a +30 can directly be extrapolated to be an 18% increase in yield - as someone reported that a +12.5 Veghash increased his yield from 69 to 74 units though (five samples) it can be assumed that this is valid.
Crosspost from the Ranger board:
OK, taking the data from this [the Ranger board one 
] thread:
+50 = 30% increase
+12.5 = increase from 69 to 74 units = roughly +7.5%
It can thus be extrapolated that the +30 would bring an 18% increase in harvests.
If you harvest 10 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get 11.8 with the +30 Veghash
If you harvest 50 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get59.0 with the +30 Veghash
If you harvest70 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get82.6 with the +30 Veghash
If you harvest 100 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get118 with the +30 Veghash
If you harvest300 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get354 with the +30 Veghash
OK, is it worth the BE enhancement? I would probably sell the standard Veghash for about 75-100 credits per use while the +30 stuff with a BE enhancement would have to be 600 per use if the current trend of 2k per medium BE additive remains and *only*that price is directly added to the price of the Veghash. 600 for 12 minutes of harvesting.
For the +16 Veghash the numbers would look as following:
9.6% increase in yield
If you harvest 10 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get 10.96 with the +16 Veghash
If you harvest 50 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get54.80 with the +16 Veghash
If you harvest70 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get76.72 with the +16 Veghash
If you harvest 100 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get109.6with the +16 Veghash
If you harvest300 units of a critter without Veghash you would thus get328.8with the +16 Veghash
Do we give up on this or would anyone buy it?
As far as the veghash goes, I know lots of BE's that I'm sure will give me enhancements for product, to which I can give the chefs the enhancements and organics for product which basically means free stuff for me as usual, but lots more legwork and less for them as usual as well
.As long as it was a fair price, I'd buy crates of the max possible veghash. Even 8 units more per harvest adds up quickly.

PSKstang, that is EXACTLY what I'm trying to find a chef for on starsider. Very good and fair deal.

I like this idea when somebody on my server suggests it.
Actually, I always like this idea, but the whole server thing.
And/or just send me a /tell/email plz.
