Nope, try again. That formula isn't right at all.

Take this example:

I have novice scout, which is 10 harvest skill. I have an MSE droid that I use to harvest with 35 bonus (was an early model for testing), so it would look like this:

f(x) = 0.1426*(35/10)+1.0766 or f(x) = 1.5757

Or a 57% increase. This is clearly not the case, as I only harvest somewhere between 5 and 7% with that droid (hard to tell exact value in game because of rounding and slight creature variations).

When I use my 110 rated R3, I get around 22% - so lets apply the formula to that and you get f(x) = 2.64 or 264%. Check that formula and get back to us please. If there really is a formula, I'd like to know it.

Actually you're usage of the formula is incorect. It's supposed to be 0.1426*ln(35/10) not 0.1426*(35/10)
Big difference there.

Also, I was unaware of the grouping thing so that might change things. Keep in mind I was getting this information all from people in the forums. I'll try to get some people in my guild to give me more data points so I'm sure everything still fits.

For reference I have a lot of data points around the low end of the graph so that section is pretty well fleshed out. But the 1.5+ section is a pretty low in datapoints, so it may be wrong.
