I had one on a AVU with a nyms motor in it made a 50-180 knuckler and then I went and had a speedslice on it go figure ![]()
Havent had one since the CU dunno if its till there. Thou I hope as it adds a bit of flavour to the crafting

I had one once loooong ago when I was still only a Master Architect on my valcyn alt (now that and a Master Weaponsmith). Ironically though, I think either I messed up on another experimentation shot on the component, or messed up on making it a schematic...eitherway it was something that I regretted heh.

Does experimentation even matter in archies? Unless you were making harvies...

Critical success pre-CU advanced blaster rifle barrels:
17 min
17 max
-0.45 speed (or thereabouts, moot point now)
+17 IR

I don't know that I've ever had one myself, but I did buy out a retiring smith's supply of crit success AVBU's that were 37-56 and made nice 2.0 50-165 VK's. I think between one of my partners and I we still have around 500 of them left. Unfortunately, they were all ruined by SOE's inept attempt to update component stats so that's about 40 million down the tubes right there just in what we paid for the AVBU's.

Yeah, though for BER (Base extraction rate) we have a cap so once you hit a certain point...
It was on a ore mining unit anyways, not if it was on a heavy mineral mine...wouldve been sweet as I couldve made a nice max level BER -and- some extra room to spare. Compared to weaponsmiths achieving this success? Heh, still hardly comes close alas

I've had several.. 8 or 9.. they seemed to be fairly common while making DXR-6B's prior to CU. I haven't had any since the CU.
