Does using advanced components on buffs make them better than using them with regular ones?

I don't think I've ever considered making them WITHOUT using advanced components. If you make buffs without advanced components, I'd be interested in hearing what your results are.

For comparison, I'll list my buffs here. The batch I'm currently using has the following parts:

ABEC = 21 charge, 14 power

ASDS = 72 power

ACRDM = 66 power

These -- along with pretty decent avian and gas -- allowed me to make buffs in the 918-920 power range and they last for 3.25 hours. The action enhance pack came out to 924 power + 3.75 hours.

I'm sure I could have made them stronger by putting some points into power on the ABEC, but I happen to prefer charges on ABECs.

I guess you could probably get away with putting normal CRDMs in the buff packs for the secondary stats. That's a good way to conserve your herbivore meat.

I've even heard that some folks aren't even making D-buffs for the secondary stats. Instead, they use C-buffs for the secondaries.

Without adv. components, you are looking at about 600 power on your buffs. See above for what you can get with good advanced components and apparently good Avian meat.

using the same Avian and Reactive gas, if you DID use advanced solid delivery shells, a good ASDS would add 30-40 more points. If you added in ACRDMS, add another 30-40 points depending on how good your herbivore meat is, if you used ABECs, then you could add 9-10 more charges to each pack.
