Likewise, a G5 and a G3 will also reach the smart cap of 37% or a G4+G4 for best efficiency.
So, a double g5 will never be less than a g10, only the same? Also, can I make a double g5+g3 rare or it only works with same grade?
Correct, most 2x G5s are all either the same or slightly more than a G10 while G10s gets the advantage of taking up a single slot while 2x G5s need 2 slots. Having double rares, will effectively also grant the benefit of having a single slot (With the disadvantage that the double rares cannot be the same). There are still some rares which have G10 > 2x G5s (I.E, weary and desire).
Double rares will only work with same grade.
