 ===== What to prepare for =====
 Here are the primary goals we should achieve before we hit level 130:
-  * For income: Mining level 80, maxed mining lasers of a single ore type.
+  * For income: Mining level 80, maxed mining lasers of a single ore type. Preferably, choose a higher exp ore since they are all about equal price now and the Expertise mining mastery gives enough exp to go all-in on any ore. However, it does need mining level 100, which is crucial now.
   * For power and income: All T7 gear, optimized energizements, at least E10.
   * For income: Slayer V
   * For power: invest all plat into Drone and Drake levels (equally)
-  * For income: invest plat into Prospector first, Merchant second
+  * For income: invest plat into Prospector levels first, Merchant levels second
-All of the Advanced Guide basically boils down to these. You might have noticed how 4/5 of our goals have 'income' goal in them: that's our goal. That's what necesarry for T8 equipment: a good income to buy all materials, progress with empowering more, etc...

 The reason for this is simple: it takes time to progress in T8 and beyond. A lot of time. We have progressed fast in T7 and below. When I got to level 115, I had 6 pieces of T7 ready (bought or prepared, empowered at least to E10).
-Before I got to level 130, I couldn't even prepare a single T8 piece.
+Before I got to level 130, I couldn't even prepare a single T8 piece. This, however, changed now since T9 came out and the crafting of reinforcements and energizing shards changed. Now, it's entirely possible to have 2 or more T8 pieces ready when arriving at level 130.
-With this, I finish the guide with my only advice for T8: prepare for a very slow advancement. You are limited by your income and by the daily 4th dungeon in this phase.
+With this, I finish the guide with my only advice for T8: prepare for a very slow advancement. You are limited by your income and by the daily 4th dungeon in this phase. This will also be the point where the extreme divergence of playstyles will become apparent. That's why the end game guide will be seperated into different playstyles.
