Once I find an area it likes, I load loads above and below it to see if I am in the middle of a node or on the edge.
Once I am happy with that I start chain COAL unless I have a recipe already that it likes that bullet for already (usually some idea)
I still play with COAL to see if difference combo makes a difference with COAL.
So far it does not seem to.
You should find a node it likes between low and mid load and again someplace between mid load and maximum.
There may be a third node right up at maximum but I don't usually play there.
