Before the patch, I could get a mind buff or use Angerian Fishak to boost mind first and the /powerboost and it takes the new total mind into account for the boost. Now, no when I use the Fishak it still boost me off of my base mind stats.

Anyone else notice this?

yeah, looks that way to me. I think that really sucks, the ability to stack it was one of the things that made it great!

I wonder if someone had found a way to abuse it to cause the devs to nerf it like that?

hmmm...

It was not a nerf in my opinion. Powerboot was being'abused' to the extreme on the lowca server as several tka's would end up with 15-16k mind pools. Obviously not what the devs had in mind. Thank your fellow TKAs for blatently going around showing off and abusing this.

Well, in that case then it's sad people abused it to the point where the rest of us are no longer allowed to be creative in how we use powerboost.

To bad they couldn't find a way to stop the exploiters without taking that apect of it away from us.

not a nerf they intended to do....when you look at the new interface on how they calculate the new totals...they did this to get around fixing the stat buff problem. Somewhere in the root programing is the formula to calculate powerboost, but with the new look they forgot to compensate for modifiers adding to the mind total..I am sure they can add a script to include the current modifiers. One thing it shows is that they had no idea how to fix it so they had to create a new program for it...feel like this is past beta and we are into zeta.

and 9k ham bar formind is not too far off if you plan it correctly....combination of spice, food, drink and dancer buff with power boost to get the good lapdance....pk ham is not out of range...and to add...all you have to do to avoid the ones exploiting it is to bleed their mind and run from them for 10 minutes....cause if you outrun them then they will die...and before with the way stat bugs were the downers would do it for you....guys learn to use an exploit they are using against them....if they exploit know about it and how to not let them exploit you....only one that suffers is the guy blocking with his head.

"I wonder if someone had found a way to abuse it to cause the devs to nerf it like that?"

Oh ya. Big time. You could go to a master dancer, and just before the timer was up eat thruster head (+600), and a bunch of +mind food then powerboost to full mind+50%. So if you had 1k mind you could get like 2k with food and thruster head pretty easy, then powerboost to 3k, then stop the dancer watching and get 6k mind. Wen powerboost and food wears off you would still have 4k mind for 1-2 hours and boost your hams by 2k (mind to 6k) with powerboost the whole time. Put doctor buffs on that and you got a really overpowered setup.

Wow, too bad I missed out on all that!

Just kidding......

...wait....no I'm not.....

......eerrrrr......yes I am.....

...yeah
