== Mining Bonus Data_Max Quality ==
I've colleccted data on the bonus to max quality ore from rarity and imbue and how it changes with skill. The bonus to your max ql seems to decrease as your skill increases.
1) Using a supreme pickaxe with 100 mining imbue:
If you plot skill (x) and max ore ql (y) you get y=0.5861x+41. The R squared correlation is 0.9999 (this would be 1 if the data was perfect; 0.9999 is really good).
Skill Max QL Bonus (max ql - skill)
83.477 89.94 6.463
83.712 90.07 6.358
83.958 90.21 6.252
84.4 90.46 6.06
84.701 90.64 5.939
84.949 90.78 5.831
85.313 90.99 5.677
86.225 91.52 5.295
86.886 91.9 5.014
88.008 92.57 4.562
90 93.77 3.77
Predicted Max Ql data (w/supreme pic + 100 imbue):
-Skill needed to get 100 ql ore: 100.66*
-Skill needed to get 98 ql ore: 97.25
-Skill needed to get 95 ql ore: 92.13
-Skill needed to get 93 ql ore: 88.72
* Note: the 100ql ore predition is probably high because the game rounds to the 100ths place on the ore ql.

2) Using a Rare pickaxe with no imbue:
The formula for this one is y=0.9187x+7.9445 (R-squared = 1).
Skill Max QL Bonus (max ql - skill)
83.477 84.64 1.163
83.712 84.86 1.148
83.958 85.08 1.122
84.4 85.48 1.08
84.701 85.76 1.059
84.949 85.98 1.031
85.313 86.31 0.997
86.225 87.15 0.925
86.886 87.76 0.874
88.008 88.79 0.782
90 90.64 0.64
Pedicted max ql data (with rare pic):
-Skill needed to get 100 ql ore: 100.2*
-Skill needed to get 98 ql ore: 98.02
-Skill needed to get 95 ql ore: 94.76
-Skill needed to get 93 ql ore: 92.58
-Skill needed to get 90 ql ore: 89.31
-Skill needed to get 80 ql ore: 78.43
-Skill needed to get 70 ql ore: 67.54
* Note: the 100ql ore predition is probably high because the game rounds to the 100ths place on the ore ql.
