I use a smelting=>crafting strategy and my mines are usually upgraded so I have been using the combo supercharge mine + market raid successfully to see this pattern.

Sorry I’m a bit confused by this.

Are you saying that upgraded mines may give you more than one bar per market raid? Do you have any estimated values for what your mines need to be producing to get more than 1 bar? And is it different for certain bars?

I need Chromium bars but I also need my Chromium ore (a lot of it) for Samarium bars on my current level and trying to figure out the best way to go about it.

If you supercharge your best chromium mine and use a free cache while the supercharge is active you will likely get chromium (ore) as the resource component

If you superchange the chromium mine and market raid the market with chromium (bars) you will get 10x the chromium you would have without the supercharge. You can supercharge more than one mine as well to compound this effect. Note that due to rounding this may “increase” production from 1 -> 1.

I don’t know exactly how the selection process and quantity work for FC. For the market raid, you will get ‘24 hours worth’ of each component which is calculated based on a snapshot and not a rolling average.

Because of how this process works, using a market raid or a free cache power without an accompanying army/mine supercharge power is arguably quite wasteful
