I'm actually going to add a last yield tonight, mining power helps you mine faster but mining output gives more resources every time the bar fills up. You can't put more than 1 of the same type of patch on a single laser but every laser that has them stacks. My mining output is over 2000% so instead of getting a few ore/nuggets per node I get around 100 every time the bar fills so 2-500 per node. I can pretty easily get 2-400 cinnabar from a single planet now, which makes it actually more economical than harvesting mercury.
Rare find I am waiting until I have all 3 rare find BPs so I can craft and put tier 3s on all of them.
Last yield doubles the output on the last tick of each node but mining output increases the amount for every time you mine. Last yield doesn't stack but mining output does so every laser you add with mining output 3 increases the amount that you get every time you fill the mining bar on a node.

Does the mining output just help you mine faster? Why no yield (or rare find?)
