i noticed that im not getting the extra training from the stuff in my cell.   YES i added the items to my cell, i didnt just assume they were added automatically.

basically i train and it says i trained and gained 30 in whatever stat but the actual number is less.  an example is last night it said i gained 30 but really i only gained 23.  i dont know how long this has been going on but i'm getting seriously ripped off here.  i'm losing 8 per train and now that i've added another item to my cell i'll be losing even more.

Do you have anything in your cell that DEDUCTS from that stat?

For example, if you have something in your cell that gives you -5% defense and you gain 100 defense, you'll only gain 95 defense.

Are you trining with low stamina? You get more points per training session based on your stmaina; the same goes in the opposite direction.

ah ok....i thought the -5% for example was 5% off my actual defense, not 5% off my defense training.

nevermind. 

It's NOT off your training. But if you GAIN 100 defense, then yeah you got it, but 5% is always going to be taken from your total defense, so naturally you'll only SEE 95 gained. Make sense?
