Seems strange. I thought W9 gave 50% quickness. It is supposed to. Also it is an fx and not a ben. Fx's can add together. Ben's cannot. Ben's comne from items and spells. Ben's give +3att +3def.

Also AP should be lowered due to encumbrance if you have a Jade armor. Use boots and no armor instead to be certain of effects.
In my test scenario I had to hit next turn a couple time, so the Harbringer is now base:

Base Action Points: 16
Heroic Ability: +108 percent
Current Action Points: 33


With boots of quickness, he is:

Current Action Points: 66


With jade armor, he is:

Current Action Points: 50


With just a bless and no armor he is:

Current Action Points: 49


Argghh ... before I had co-incidental values. Thanks for the clarification, KO! Whoops! I didn't take encumberance into account.

So the formula when spell quickness is active is actually something like Code:

CurrentAP = (BaseAP - (Enc-1) + Power) * (1 + Heroic) * 2



And when only W9 bless is active it is Code:

CurrentAP = (BaseAP - (Enc-1) + Power) * (1 + Heroic) * 1.5



Is that right? I think before the '* 2' or '* 1.5' is applied, the value is floored/truncated/converted to int.

Anyway, the W9 bless and spell quickness don't stack, but I'll keep the heavy armor off my heroic quickness guys!
