Hello,
(Take 2 as first one didn't seem to post)
I have been making my money refining different ores and selling the minerals. As I am new(ish) (despite character age due to subscription time) I am still learning many things. However, I encountered an issue on my last and biggest ore purchase.
I purchased 3.9 million Solid Pyroxeres to refine and sell. I have Refining V, Refining Efficiency IV and Pyroxeres processing IV. I also have the 1% refinery implant. The station I was at has a 5% tax rate as I have no reputation with that faction. I had previously refined a batch of 2.x million Solid Pyroxeres at that station with no issues. However, when I went to refine the 3.9 million batch, I noticed the refinery efficiency indicator said 41%. This was odd because no matter the circumstances that I can think of, I should not have that low an efficiency given my skills at an NPC station. I thought it might be a graphical glitch due to the large volume of ore being refined and so did so anyways (I couldn't move it as it is like 3 freighter loads). It was not a graphical glitch and I lost near 100 million isk.
Looking further, I noticed that the base yield for a batch of ore at that station is now 32% instead of the normal 50%. This is what has lead to my drastically reduced refinery yield. At a different corporation station in the same region but different constellation, the base yield is back up to 50%. At a different corporation station in the same constellation my base yield is 50%. At a station in the same constellation and same corporation the base yield is 50%. At a station in the same solar system and same corporation the base yield is also 32%. At the station in question the base yield remains 32% and I cannot figure out why this happened and why it is not changing back to 50%.
I do not know if my base yield would be affected at all stations for all corporations in the same solar system because both stations in the solar system are HZO stations.
If anyone can explain what has happened here, I would greatly appreciate it as I cannot afford financially to make this mistake twice.
Thank you, Nader Ardeshir |

Different stations have different refining rates. You happened upon a station with 0.32 as a base. While most stations are 0.5, you should still check to confirm this; as you have noticed, even the same corporation can have different rates. |

I appreciate your answer! This will make ore procurement very troublesome though as I had thought they all had a base rate of 50%.

Where to find reprocessing rate at NPC stations. |
