So I've gotten to the point where I can replace a +24 on my rift with items that will make more than +24 in that size 18. That said, at the bottom of the list of things to add, I have a couple of unrecoverable +2 AP items. I am curious if it is better to use a +1 AP Lepus item that will get boosted by the Bio-Con Controller Unit. Has anyone run the numbers on this? |

It should be better but the easiest way to deduce this would be to take your Rift and chuck on a +1 at the end and see what it gets you(double it for your +2 structure) then check what 1% gain is with just the +1 structure. |

Fair enough. I figured there were a lot of math nerds who probably did it. Either will be a nice boost, able to go from +0/24/0 to 22/37/27 + 2%, I do have to wait for elios though to get the last ones I need. |

That depends...how many lepus items are you going to place, as each adds 1% when you use bio-con, and what is your total AP? I currently have 113 AP from structures on my rift. So, +2 AP is going to be a 1.77% increase (2/113). If you go with the lepus item, that will be a 0.88% increase 100% of the time (1/113) plus a 1.14% increase for each lepus item somewhere between 0 and 60% of the time. So, in other words, you are looking at for 1 lepus item a difference of at least about a 0.2% improvement from using the +2 AP building, or at best a 0.49% improvement if you have 2 lepus buildings and go with the bio-con. Obviously, it'll make a bigger difference the higher your overall AP, as the +2 AP will make less of an improvement and the +% will make more of one. |

You don't have to account for every build  You just need to know how many lepus buildings there will be and the total AP (assuming you don't care about mining or research gains or losses.) |

AP would go from 136AP + 2% biocon to 149 AP + 4% biocon alternatively just 151AP + 2% biocon. IE, I have 2 Lepus Drones on the planet, would be adding a Lepus Bio-Mech Hypergate + Lepus Bio-Nest. |

If you NPC regularly:
If you don't NPC regularly, keep a gateway on and omit the hatchery. It's been a while since I ran the numbers; iirc, I think you'll make slightly less overall due to the 16 "down hours," but I suspect next year we'll get a reduced cooldown or increased length of effect, so it's what I got in the habit of doing (since I don't have enough extractors to maintain the "ideal" practice listed above). |
