Hi everyone! Just a sidenote, this is the best day 1 purchase I've made in a long long long time.

With that being said, I was hoping someone could tell me how action points are calculated with regards to speed. More specifically, I'm talking about "Turn Action Points".

Let's use my Madora as an example. She's level 10, and with everything unequipped she has 6 in Speed and 7 in Constitution (I bring this up because even though the tooltip doesn't say, it seems Constitution affects my Turn Action Points). Hovering over "Action Points", it says my Turn Action Points = 6, a base of 4 and +2 from Speed.

Now, I equip a helmet (+1 Constitution, +1 Leadership, +1 Sneaking). From the tooltip, this SHOULD NOT affect my Turn Action Points. However, with a Constitution of 8(7+1), my Turn Action Points are now 8, with the tooltip saying Base = 4, Speed = +2. Aka, the same tooltip as before, but somehow +2 to Turn Action Points?

I unequip the helmet, then equip a 2 handed weapon that gives me +1 to Speed. Now, with 7(6+1) in Speed, 7 in Constitution, I get 9 Turn Action Points, base = 4 Speed = +3.

I re-equip the helmet while having the 2 handed weapon equipped, still same Turn Action Points (9), same tooltip.

I add in some Boots that among other things, give +1 to Speed. So now my Constitution = 8, Speed = 8. Still same Turn Action Points (9), with tooltip saying base = 4 Speed = +3.

I add in a ring that give +1 Speed, (con = 8, speed = 9). My turn action points = 10, with tooltip saying base = 4 Speed = +4.

I remove the helm (con = 7, speed = 9), same result as above.

What the heck is going on? Can someone explain to me? I really want to understand how my Turn Action Points are calculated as they are an important factor in character building.

I will add an imgur album of all these screenshots. Thanks!
