Does Time Efficiency on a BP effect copying speed? Almost 2 days to make 1 mining crystal BP copy seems like a lot.



Thanks.

Nope only production time.

Different POS labs have better copy times tho, for example
Advanced lab - 3 copy slots (0.65 job time bonus)
Normal lab - 1 copy slot (0.75 job time bonus)

Unless it's an otherwise useless toon, don't bother with the 5% copy implant. I ran the numbers and it saves 1 day out of 14.

2 days is nothing on a mining crystal. Arkonor mining crystals are almost 5 days.

But no it dosen't increase copy time. Only way to do this is to train Science V. Buy 1%, 3% or 5% copy implants, or using a POS (.65 adv mobile lab, .75 mobile lab).

1 / 5% = 20, so it is even worse at one day saved for every 20 days of copying Blink

I found that the alt with the implant was often doing research other than just copying, so it really was useless.

No it does not affect copying speed.

If brute force isn't working, you're just not using enough.
