Last night I popped an Fishak Surprise for a nice Mind boost right before I Powerboosted thinking that extra mind buff would be taken into consideration. It wasn't. My current mind is 700 (stat migration in progress to 950)... when I added the +550 Mind buff, it was at 1250. Then at powerboost, I expected my primary HAM to raise 1250 / 2 = 625, but they only raised 700 / 2 = 350.
I don't check these boards as much as I should, so I apologize if this has already been hashed out... but has anyone else experienced this? Is it the same for spice and Dancer buffs now?

that's right. powerboost only applies 1/2 of your natural ham. any mindpool that's located in the ''modifyers'' column will not be used in the calculation. while it was funny for awhile, it was kind of obscene to see everyone running around with 4k mind hehe (fishak + muon + dancer + pb) like we are a bunch of NPC's or somethin

Does powerboost still stack on top of Dancer buffs? I haven't had the chance to try it since the publish last week. It certainly used to stack...

No, it kinda sucks now... Before the patch, I used to dancer buff, eat some bioverli(brown meatlooking stuff), some fishjuice, and a muon gold. When I powerboosted all my stats went over 6k. Keep in mind that my original mind pool is 1k. Now after all that stuff my mind pool is around 3200, after a powerboost it only goes to 3700. So I am confirming that powerboost relies only on your original mind pool for the boost modifier.
