THAT'S what I was poking fun at.

Interesting you bring it up as a toggle. I didn't think of it that way. I was thinking along the lines of just replacing the vague/unhelpful "Additional Effect: Increased Potency" with something more helpful like "Increased Emnity: XXX" and/or "Combo Enmity: XXX".
Something like that will throw more numbers at new players, but new players could also possibly see the bigger numbers and gravitate towards those. That's my thought process, anyway
