I'd like to share some experiences my friend and I had with crafting buff packs from Janta blood.
When crafting buff packs using Janta blood, you want to take the following actions to ensure that you make the most of them:
1)Make sure your crafting tool has a rating very close to 15.00.
2) Make sure your crafting station has a rating very close to 45.00.
3) Drink a Bespin Port before crafting--this increases your chances of success during assembly.
4) Eat a Pyrocake before craftint--this increases your changes of success during experimentation.
5) Do your crafting inside a city that serves as a "Research Center". You can either put up a house in such a city and put your crafting station inside it, use someone else's crafting station, or take a droid containing a good crafting station.
Ifyouhave never heard ofJanta blood, let me briefly tell yo about it. Janta blood serves as a substitute for BECs. The lowest Janta blood statistics I have seen were 100 power and 10 charges, which beats the absolute best ABEC you can craft; I believe that we can craft ABEC with a power no greater than 75.
What does this mean to your buff? It significantly boosts the power of your buff. My friend once had an action buff pack that would hit for 2900+.
Where do you find Janta blood? Go to Dantooine and kill Janta, which are NPCs that look a little like cavemen. There is also a Janta stronghold that you can visit; however, in my experience this stronghold is heavily camped. Your best bet is to take Janta missions. The nice thing about these missions is the payout; the payout can range up to 33K if you take the missions out of a player city with "Imroved Market". The disadvantage of these missions is the difficulty level; the difficulty level is so high that you need to be part of a fairly large group to receive these missions. However, you can always find a "solo group" at one of the outposts. A "solo group" is a large group of players that all go off and their own thing. Because you are grouped, you will receive these missions. And because you are by yourself, you will receive the whole payout yourself. Besides Janta blood, Janta also drop loot kit pieces, crystals and DOT melee weapons (some of them appreciable).

Don't think you're right on this account. I have crafted ABECs with a power as great as 67.

Are you sure about that mate? I've been making medical supplies since I started this game 6 months ago, and with the best Lokian Wheat and Tat Fibre I have (close to 900 on both OQs) the best Power I have ever achieved is 23.
As far as I know, these are the maximums for all the Advanced Subcomponents:
ABEC 25/15
ACRDM 75
ALS 200
ASDS 75
ACRDM 75
ALS 200
ASDS 75

Theoretical max power on an ABEC is 30. My best is 26.
Bespin port increases chances of a success duringexperimentation (not assembly)
Pyrocake increases chances of a success during assembly (not experimentation)

It depends what I'm using them for, if I'm making standardbuffsets, I'll experiment charges, my last ones were 14 power, 20 charge. If on the other hand, I've used 100/10 Janta bloods for the Health and Action packs then I'll experiment power and not chargesin order to keep the uses consistent across the set. The last ones I made like this were 10 charge, 23 power.
30 maximum on the ABECs? Interesting. I obviously need better resources (story of my life
)

I would HIGHLY recommend using them in a medical centre city once you've made them

I have a couple packs (7 i believe) of some 283 power janta blood. What kind of buffs would these turn out using some of the best resources on ahazi? I was told by 1 12pt doc that it would hit for around 3300 with just bivoli BE clothes and 110 droid. What do you guys think these would hit for?
Im gonna have them made soon so you will know but looking for some guesses
2 health packs 1 consititution

A couple corrections, some posted by other docs.
First, the foods are reversed. Easy mistake, I misspeak about those all the time myself
Pyro Cake increases chances of assembly, giving you a better chance of hitting "Amazing Success" on that first try.
Bespin Port should be used while you're in the middle of crafting. I'm an 11 point doc, and I tend to use port just before experimentation points 5 and 10, I tend to get the best gains at these points.
Most (if not all) servers now have someone making +15 crafting tools. The tool seems to affect your crafting more than the station, so be SURE to be running the highest level tools you can. Of course, getting a +44.5 station doesn't hurt
. A droid crafting station is a bad idea, they are equal to +0 private (the public ones are below that, but no one knows by how much), so they're ok in a pinch, but not recommended when playing with the high-end stuff
.
It takes quite a lot of Janta Blood to make a full set of packs. 2 sets of 2, 4 sets of 3. That's a total of 16 bloods. You will never find a drop of bloods more than 12 (or 11, can't remember), so you'll be using multiple sets for your Janta Buffs. A good idea is to write down the serial numbers and counts of each, as well as their quality, ahead of time. Then, sort them out according to how you want your buffs powered, and how to best use them.
For example, if you have a set of 4 10/100 bloods, but a bunch of sets of 3 that are higher, and you want to make the health and action the highest stats, it might be a good idea to just leave that spare blood, and use one of the sets of 3 to craft your action pack. Use it in a Stim B and hand it to a noob, watch their eyes bug out
.
My absolute best janta pack I've ever created was for a friend for his PvP. I used 1000oq/300dr gas, some old 990oq/930pe/300dr meat, and my best stuff otherwise. I think the bloods were around 150 or so power. I think they hit somewhere around 1080 base, which after running it through the doc formula, ended up around a 2970 outside med center city, 3267 inside. The duration was just under 3 hours if I remember, but that didn't matter, as PvP never lasts that long. I think he figured he'd be able to hit over 5k health and action legitimately with drugs and food, which is pretty funny

Thanks for the corrections--I probably did flip the bloody foods around. I'm at the point where I just take one of each and forget which does which 
Still confused on the theoretical maximum power of an ABEC that a player can craft. Probably my bad though.
As far as Janta blood supply, I'm fortunate in that I have a lot of friends that do Janta missions as a major form of income. They keep the Janta blood they find for a friend of mine and myself (since we're the two doctors in our guild). They're more than happy to this for us, since we always buff them for free
