High HR = key to succes !!!

[CENTER][SIZE=5]
Been testing a lot in mining lately and most important is your HitRating !!![/SIZE][/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3]I’ll be doing some runs / day (if possible) and post here the results.[/SIZE][/CENTER]

[SIZE=3][CENTER]Not going to say where and how I did it since I’m still testing it, but I keep using my F-106 all the time, if not I’ll say so.[/CENTER][/SIZE]

[CENTER][SIZE=3]I’ll give the runs numbers/Name to see if HR/TT return are stable when I go there several times[/SIZE][/CENTER]

[SIZE=4][CENTER]Here is a summary (that I have experienced) about HR

As promised : My secret to mining and how to get the 40+% HR

HR can be affected by a few things, also your TT return so I named it WWW

What - Where - When

First you need to focus on WHAT you gonna mine, most likely something with a nice MU, with a nice MU I mean 110-120%

Second is WHERE you have mapped most of those and know the zone very well

Third is WHEN … IMO this is the hardest 1 and its divided in 2 sections

1 - When was the last time somebody mined there … if your HR is about 20% it was very short before you came … 5 minutes? if your HR is about 25-30% … 10 minutes? if your HR is over 30-35% … 15 minutes … and then there is the magical 40+%…
(Those timings are for most regular ores only
Enmatters can take up to several hours to spawn)

2 - Economical HR is when there are lots and lots to mine, lots of pages on auction and lower MU than normal makes this the absolute winner with over 40% HR when both sections are in optimal conditions and that’s the time I start using amps.

All tests are done without amps

GL mining all, hope this helps a bit[/CENTER][/SIZE]

Zone 1 Enm - My first run for today : TT return [COLOR=“#008000”]118,68%

Zone 1 Ore - Second run for today : [COLOR=“#008000”]TT return 112,34%
The first 100 drops are always high HR
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/gallery/files/5/3/8/8/8/21-jan-19_9_58_56_am_ore_100_drops.jpg
The next 100 drops HR goes down since I start finding redu + ruga so here MU takes over

Zone 3 Amp Test - The 3th run will be done when all requirements are there to test HR when switching amps
KingoFaces will do the analysis
1st try is a no go
[B]2nd try was ok [COLOR=“#008000”]TT return 100,43% ^[1]
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/gallery/files/5/3/8/8/8/21-jan-19_2_58_12_pm_amp_switch.jpg
No Amp Probes 0-9 no amp 40% HR
Amp 1 Probes 10-19 40% HR
Amp 2 Probes 20-29 43,33% HR
Amp 3 Probes 30-39 42,50 HR
Amp 4 Probes 40-49 44% HR and no Amp 5 in invent :frowning:
Amp 4 Probes 50-59 41,67% HR
Amp 4 Probes 60-69 42,86% HR
Amp 4 Probes 70-79 42,50% HR
Amp 4 Probes 80-89 41,11% HR
Amp 4 Probes 90-100 40% HR

Just double checking before I start running any numbers, but are those hit rates in run 3 cumulative starting with the unamped (basically same setup as last time?), or are those hit rates within each amp instead? I can add this to your old data too to get a little more power hopefully.

If it’s the same as last time, here’s what you have so far as of the time I edited this.

Basically no difference in hit rates right now (a slight increase with amp decay, but not statistically significant). This is again early though, so once you start getting closer to 100 drops for at least a few amps, it should give us a better idea if anything will likely show up or not.

Subscribed :yay:

LBML tracking ?

Yes, I did this swithching amps test 100% the same as I did the first 1.
The only different is that I would have use a level 5 amp if I had 1 on me, but I did,'t but that’s ok, I’ll keep doing all other runs the same like this.
The HR here is a lot better cause I waited for the best condition before I started, I’ll do so for the next runs also.
Thank you very much :slight_smile:

EDIT : If I didn’t had used amps here, I would have made a profit. But using amps and getting NRF eats your profit in TT return when not hitting a better claim.

Yes indeed :slight_smile:

And now the question.. how do u increase ur hit rate from 20% to 40%+?

Today started really very good :slight_smile:

Zone 2 First run for today [COLOR=“#008000”]161,47%
Very high profit since it started with a high HR + 2 x XI

And the end result

Zone 5 [COLOR=“#FF0000”]81,39 % TT return
In this zone I always had problems getting the HR up (Hint lol)

Try mininglog.com, this most likely will help you with HR, how much, its up to you.

Indeed, use LBML to track your HR

If low … like 20-30% move to another zone.

How to increase it … still testing that part

I’ve never seen such high hit rates. And I’ve been mining some !

Barely ever been over 20-25%.

Taking old disciple or internship?

Hi Leeloo,

Interesting and cool post. Wish you the best of luck and appreciate you guys sharing the info. Also, IMO, I think your hit rate variance (HRV) is determined in a combonation of factors that involve skills, timing, equipment, and location (STEL).

All the best and cheerz,
Vi

Who nows :slight_smile: will reveal all in a few weeks ^^

Yes.

Also, makes me curious on how this data can be applied for those who don’t use UL mining finders in theory/general as I only use L pre-amped mining finders. Thus, would the HRV stabilize or ‘increase positive’ for an eco UL mining finder in long term versus a more ‘dynamic’ approach in HRV using only L pre-amped finders in shorter time spans? I’m sure there’s many more questions, but that came to mind atm.

that’s what i’ve been thinking after seeing 60 nrf in hell mining, then 3-4 claims in the last 40 drops, when i was mining unamped. Observed over roughly 30k drops.
So i figured, i’ll do my 60 nrf and then switch to d-class to get 3-4 claims in the 39 d-class drops, ofc it didn’t work for a single one out of the 3 d-class. Always ended up with 1-2 claimes, one of the claims was gladly 800+ PED, so no loss there. Anyway, that theory is in the trash can now.

Indoor mining is totally dif …

it was an example.
unamped indoor my hitrate is between 3-12% in 100 drop runs.
outdoor my hitrate is between 20-50% in 100 drop runs.

I have been using the Roctec MF1/DSEC-L30 also, so equal to finder + amp 2 and I might try some A or D- ziplex series.

But first I want to check and be sure, that the way I’m mining now gives me a steady HR of around 40%

As far as I noticed (but no exact numbers on it) it “acts” the same as the UL finder with an amp, so imo it should be possible to get a 40% HR also.

The only thing that worries me when using amps is that even with a HR of 40% the NRF’s drains your profit away if you do not hit a bigger claim in your run, at least, that’s what I noticed on the amp switching runs, but all that will be cleared up after a lot more runs also.
