"is this belt better than this one?" "is this pair of tongs even for larger buffs like +10% or +50% or whatever, those are just... 10 stacks, or if percentages are usually round numbers like +10% and +50% then like... +1 stack which calculates to +10% the hard limit vs math limit thing you said is amazing ^_^ ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #15 fediverse/1659 --- ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────┐ ║ ┌───────────────────────────┐ │ ║ │ CW: re: what, mh shitpost │ │ ║ └───────────────────────────┘ │ ║ │ ║ │ ║ @user-1052 │ ║ │ ║ you're right, hubris has claimed many a paladin before-me.
