    The unbuffed portion is working as intended, it is identical to 5.1 live.


    So I say to you, stop posting bullshit with nothing to add to this thread.
    Countering false information adds more than presenting guesses as verified information. You're only now admitting that a lot of the arguments you've made were educated guesses. Early on you made it sound like you knew exactly how mushrooms will work (and when I asked for confirmation, you falsely claimed they were confirmed when now you admit that they cannot be). I have, this entire time, been trying to get you to either provide verified evidence or admit that your arguments are guesses. You seem to think I'm derailing this thread/trolling because I refuse to accept your arguments without evidence. I'm perfectly fine with people making educated guesses — as long as they admit that's what they are doing. I'm not ok with those educated guesses being presented as facts. THAT is what you were doing. Glad we got that cleared up.

    Right now you're just inciting and riling people up, not doing anything of worth. The tooltip is how it is supposed to work, according to Blizzard, so no, it's not just guessing. It's perfectly reasonable to assume that's how it's going to work.

    Erm, no? (10,000)*(6)+(0.33)*(500,000) = 10,000*6+0.33*500,000 = (10,000*6)+(0.33*500,000).

    It doesn't say (10,000*6+0.33). There's a left parenthesis before the .33. You could just completely drop all of the parentheses and it wouldn't change anything.

    Order of operations, what I have is correct.

    Evaluate parenthesis first, then multiplication, then addition. You're not obeying the rules.

    This thread has spun into name-calling and little useful further information. In the future, do not use threads for petty bickering back and forth. Closing.
