 ====Empowering for Allstat ====
-Now we have truly entered the horror RNG part of the game: the wild world of allstat empowering. The start of this isn't actually punishing at all. At most, you'll lose 1 empower level. However, when you attempt to step further than 11*, you may get the horrible -2 empower level hit. This is also the area where you finally get to buy and use Skasix.

 Just as before, prepare your stash, focused on T6 augments this time, with a dash of T7 upgrade materials (which is also our goal incidentally). Pushing everything to E11 and the augments to E12-13 will get you to the desired allstat count.

 ===== Mining laser investment =====
-Until you achieve level 80 in mining, it's best to just keep a Flat Orthoclase mining laser. However, after mining level 80, we should go all out for a single ore's mining lasers as it brings an incredible amount of income immediately. The order of upgrade is Base, Percentage, Purity, Double.
+Until you achieve level 80 in mining, it's best to just keep a Flat Orthoclase mining laser. However, after mining level 80, you can go all out for a single ore's mining lasers as it brings an incredible amount of income immediately. The order of upgrade is Base, Percentage, Purity, Double. There is one thing: with the Expertise mastery requiring mining level 100 and equalizing all mining exp at rank 5, arriving to level 100 mining is as important as having income. If you are going to pick the lowest hanging fruit and go for Orthoclase/Anorthite ores (the reason is written in the below paragraph) which are the lowest xp ores, you delay Expertise mastery and thus your long term mining income. Decide accordingly.
-The mining masteries, especially the lower ones for Orthoclase and Anorthite, are incredibly useful here. 'Surface Mining' gives up to %60, the ore specialization masteries give up to 25% more ore. These are easily achieveable masteries, with 1x and 2x times. If you're a serious miner: at the deepest end of the mining mastery chain, 'Depth Mining' gives 25% more ore.

Going for Jaspil would be ideal to getting the Expertise mastery as fast as possible, but also the most expensive (mining lasers are the most expensive to upgrade).
 Look at prices, pick an ore accordingly, check the investment gold of the lasers and pick your lasers. Ditch your Flat Orhoclase laser and equip all 4 mining lasers of the same ore. All your income should go to getting them to level 80 ASAP.
