on anything but dom you should be rolling in so much money that its not an issue
Ok, let's talk dominating, with 92 merc:
184 for components for 1 inhalant (excluding mindshrooms)
or 172 for components for 6 psi boosters (excluding mindshrooms), that sell for 412
And you need 287 to just BUY an inhalant
So even on dominating you still get ahead by just turning all mindshrooms into boosters, selling the boosters and buying inhalants with the cash.
P.S. That's ON TOP of the fact boosters crafting does not require any chemistry.
