Best Type of Multi Tool

[d.kall]

Out of the four types of multi tools, which one is the best to try and save up for?

[Sanquin]

The best multi tools seem to be the alien ones. At least I've found the highest stats on them. And they do come in 24 slot variety.

Alien for damage multiplier, Experimental for mining and scanning multiplier.

S Class Alien: +80-90% Damage, +40-45% Mining, +50-60% Scanning
S Class Experimental: +40-45% Damage, +80% Mining, +100% Scanning
S Class Rifle: +20-30% Damage, +0% Mining, +15-20% Scanning
S Class Pistol: +0% Damage, +65-70% Mining, 45-50% Scanning

Yeah, I’ve picked up an alien “S” class, was only 20 slots but wow, it’s like you don’t need any support tech and when you do install some, gimminy crickets!

[Sanquin]

Yea, was so glad I found an alien tech one. Has like 50~60 in all bonuses, and 23 slots. :)

Currently using a 24S Alien tool, which I've had for a long time, best experimental for me so far is an A24. Still looking for a 24S Experimental, now in Budullangr

probably max slot mining. You don't need extra damage on normal mode. You don't need more scan range either, after a while it reaches so far its a pain to walk to whatever you found. Damage might win out on survival mode.
