This one killed me for a couple of days, too. When I started (before things became really difficult) I was able to make A on all but the most recent of my recipes, so i decided that I would only sell A grade products. Now, while I still do A's on many items, I am having to put B's on the exchange.

There is, if i understand correctly, a level range for each difficulty. Moderates cover 2 or 3 levels. The lowest of these can probably give you consistent results just below those of your highest Easies. The highest... Well, let's just say that the iron WOs that are now my mods are still DI. I think I'll avoid those for a level or two more, though. :)

This throws the predictive gambling out the window since you cannot guess how many action point it'll really take. I've seen many, many, MANY, complications take more action points than the base. I would LOVE for the tooltips to correctly display the amount of action points so that we're not left in the dark.

The AP penalties are percentages. These apply to all actions, including comp fixes. I don't know how the stacking for multiple penalties works, but I think this is how the progression goes:
VL = 10%
L = 20%
M = 30%
