Hero gear counts twice in ap count

While trying to find out why my ap is suddenly higher after a hero died and is returned, I noticed that the math for hero gear means it is incorporated twice in the ap for the unit it is with.

It is used once for the total gear score, but the ap uses also the ap of the hero itself, which also already uses the gear the hero wearing. At least based on the numbers displayed when hovering over the various scores with my mouse.

Is this intentional?




Btw, what does "techs" stand for where does that number come from?

it's AP from your researches.. those aren't free AP-wise. +melee and +armor, in this case should be 11 and 6.

Interesting post, rly..
I think lia + hero separate APs should be the same as lia with hero.

I don't see the hero ap mentioned twice there, unless total GS somehow affects the ap?

Hm, looking at the screenie I actually am not seeing it right now as well. Thing is, I stared at those numbers for a long time to be sure, on different units, before I made a post about it. The screenshot itself I then took without actually comparing again, so I don't know if it was something that went away and was tied in to the other issue I posted about. Or if it was a case of the 3am-s
