Do moderate missions have the chance to crit? I've been avoiding them to conserve credits.

all missions have a chance to critical. you should avoid Moderate if possible because the rewards are the worst possible. you should only run moderate at low skill level, simply because nothing else is available, or when you just have no other choice.

 

Rich--Bountiful--Abundant--Moderate

So rich is better then bountiful

thought it was the other way around

It honestly depends on what skill we are talking about, cause slicing, its moderate all the way and avoid the others, while the others like scavenging, its the higher ones are better to do.

In terms of amount of materials you get for your credit, rich and and abundant are nearly as good, with rich being marginally better. Next comes bountiful, and finally moderate. If you need the materials and are not in a particular hurry, you should only do rich and abundant missions, preferring rich if possible. If you need to get the stuff faster and have the credits to spare, you can run any of the missions.

If it costs more and takes more time, it yields better rewards..usually.

Wealthy is the best.. those are from missions that you unlock.

Wealthy, prosperous,rich,bountiful,abundant,moderate.

 

Returns are greatest from left to right, sans a couple quirks in certain crew skills (slicing) or specific efforts for rare items (crafting schematics).
