no offense but some of us have the resources to 'waste' and want the best that's available on our server .... 25 power means 25 more power and since it's a personal opinion thing, there's no reason to get ugly.

Excellent info...im a new Doctor and didnt know that ive always gone power on everything.
Buff Packs with 8 more uses is a large profit margin for the Clinic (ie Starport, med center)buffers...I figure if they are just 4 me and my group then it doesnt really matter.
Good Post

charges. I sell my buffs in starports. More charges = more cash.

I usualy get the power up to 20 then experiment charges up to whatever the last batch I put in was p20 c15 or something like that. I use them in buff packs. Now in stim packs I use Max Charges because 15 power isn't that big of a deal to me on my area heals that I use in the heat of battle. When in battle not having to change packs as often is a big help. For my buffs I use about equal on power and charges ie my last batch was p16 c16 for my buffs.

Whats more important for a buff pack.
Does the power of these effect a buff pack power that much or should i just max out exp on charges ?

basically it boils down to this
a) are you selling stuff for profit or personal use
b) are you making stimpacks/wound packs or enhance packs
For me, when selling stimpacks (though i never have to much extent) I used charges for the abecs
When I'm selling enh packs on my vendor ( and for personal use) I use power as I've polled my customers and that's what they prefer .... so for me the answer is simple however, for personal use as I don't want to be bothered with keeping up w/ different runs ... i just use power for everything as it's easier for me and i'm lazy but *if* I was doing this to maximize the uses on my resources, i'd do charges on stims/wound packs and power on enhances .... but that's just me ....

Question for you doc crafters...do you max out the charges on your ABECS before experimenting on power? Or vice-versa?
Let me know your opinion!

matter of preference - both the charges and power IIRC transfer directly over to the final result - that is, experimenting for 15 extra power will give you a buff pack with 15 extra power, and experimenting 5 extra charges will give you 5 extra charges on the pack. If you have godly resources for everything else and you're gonna hit 850 or more no matter what your ABECs come out to I'd say go for economy and do charges; likewise for stims I'd go charges since you'll be able to get the power high enough for any practical use without relying on the ABEC power. If you need the power though to make your buff pax marketable then go for the power.
