Default The type of math involved in uptiering items.

What math is used to calculate how many low tiers it will take to get a high tier? I would like to research it. If you have a formula, tell me if you can.

Ummm it's exponential. It doubles each tier, so the basic formula is total = 2^number of tiers.

(Tier IX and X are merely speculation at this point. Glitch has not officially said they exist.)
the air in my bedroom is much fresher than the suffocating air of the chicago area.

You're right, I wrote it out how I usually do it but didn't bother to add the -1 because I do it in a roundabout, retarded way that my statistics teacher would have given me an F for using.

Come to think of it, mine probably would too. I usually start with the base number (1) and multiple it like so:

1x(2^6) then divide by 2 to get r6 <.< don't ask me why
