Research Resource Rarities

I have some data from running collectors - this came from me wondering "why don't i have more plastids from Saturn, and don't I have a lot of Ampules"...

I think it might mean the resource page needs a tweak, or we clarify what "uncommon" is here.

Essentially, the "Research" resources dominate when you use a Distilling Extractor Prime, leading to less useful resources being pulled than expected.

Planet 1 2 3 4 Total Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Type 4 Max Resource
Zariman 11 13 40 2 66 17% 20% 61% 3% Void Gel
Deimos 11 49 4 2 66 17% 74% 6% 3% Mutagen Sample
Saturn 9 9 1 46 65 14% 14% 2% 71% Detonite Ampule


FWIW, not run other collectors, and not checked anywhere else. These collection sites were driven by a desire for lots of Orokin cells, and Entrati Lanthorns.

Region Resource specifically lists out resource Rarity instead of using rarity as a classification type. I believe "research" resources use the Uncommon weighting which is why you probably see them more frequently from Distilling Extractors. I can combine the "research" resources with the "uncommon" ones in Resources#Resources By Planet if that clarifies things. -Cephalon Scientia (talk) 19:57, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
