Mystic doesn't actually reduce exp cost by 10%

The cost should be 18k. The cost is only being reduced by around 9.1%.

I don't think that's how literally anyone expects "reduced by 10%" to work though lol. You'd expect 20000 - (20000*0.1) = 18,000

Eh fair. I'm just saying it's not bugged: it's just mathed stupidly.

why is it 20,000/1.1 and not 20,000*0.9?

it says reduced by 10%, as in, 100% - 10% = 90%, right?
Why is it mathed like this? Is this a weird language thing? Is this some 400 IQ thing I can not comprehend? What is happening lmao

Obviously it works this way, when I say I took 100% of your pizza it means I took half of it.

By this logic, if the exp cost is reduced by 100%, it would be 20,000/2.0, which is 10,000 only.

So a "100% reduction" is in fact only half.

lmao

Don't get me started on what happens if it's reduced by 200%
