[GAMEPLAY] Jayce passive tooltip does not match bonus given

I was playing a coop vs ai game and noticed that the tooltip for jayces passive claims he gets 40 movement speed when he uses his ult. I had 400 movespeed when standing around since i had tier two lucidity boots and the speed enchant. When I transformed, my movement speed became 435, even though I would expect it to be 440. I started paying more attention to my MS from then on and the problem persisted through several changes in base MS. Appears to be a tooltip update issue (or ninja Jayce nerf D: )

What other values did you test it at? There are soft caps on movespeed. Meaning after certain values, further increases start getting reduced. The first range of these reductions is from 415-490 MS.

I don't actually completely understand the formula for it, mind you.

EDIT: Oh, wait, now I get it. Basically the movespeed that's in excess of 415 gets reduced to 80%. This actually comes out to exactly the 435 result you're seeing

in other words, the raw movespeed you expect is 440, which is 25 over the soft cap. So that 25 is cut to 80%, or an increase of 20.
