Suppose you have the research contract unlocked and are looking for a way to increase your daily income. Would you gain greater benefit from becoming Kronyn (25,000 credits per research point) or Mylarai?

Didn't do the math, but.... With Kronyn, you have Builder as a profession choice and if you have research contract open, you have the option to use RP for either research or money. Mylarai does not have Builder as a choice so if you would probably end up making more money going with Kronyn. The credits you save as a Builder (if you choose that profession) will more than make up for the difference I think.
