    BE Added? Multiplied? Capped?

    Is BE added or multiplied? Or maybe it is only capped to 150%?

    Clarification would be nice =)

    Well you can't be 100% sure, maybe they just put a cap at 150% so that Dwarf Artisan shouldn't sci pump and go 30% libs =p

    Brian said they multiply, but they aren't currently multiplying unless the cap is 150%.

    Btw, you don't even need libs to get over 150% BE. some Science and homes =)

    I hope it is a cap at 150%, otherwise I will have to MV fog all age =/

    Sorry, I made a mistake when I said they were multiplied. Almost all bonuses are multipled, but one part of building efficiency is different. It works like this.

    be = 100% (or whatever)
    if race == dwarf: be = be + 30%
    if race == artisan: be = be + 20%
    if gold_dragon: be = be * 0.85
    etc...


    So, if you're Dwarf Artisan, you'll see 150% be. It is not capped.

    correct me if im wrong, but isnt the added bonus better when BE w/o bonuses is under 100% which it normally is. when ever over 100% then the multiplied bonus is better..under that...?! or is it too late here

    does that mean gold dragon is applied AFTER dwarf & artisan bonuses?
