A question about potential percentages

Are they multiplicative or additive? And for being multiplicative, I'm guessing all stats and str/dex/luk/int don't multiply? I was just wondering because people get ridiculously high %'s. Thanks in advance.

+6% and +9% = +15% If you multiplied them, you'd get +0.54% Or maybe I don't understand your question.

It's sad that you had to ask this.

It's additive lol. (I think) it says +__% on the potential. And furthermore, 6% and 9% multiplied makes 0.54%, not 54%. Unless of course you're using the numbers and not the percentages.
