Any in-battle bonuses/buffs to apt from any source do not actually increase the scaled apt stat, making the boost effectively worthless. Though I didn't have any way to test it on mobs, I assume in-battle apt reductions probably react the same way.





(With 1 base apt, the second value should be 53.6 scaled)

Correct. Aptitude only ever uses its base value. Bonuses do nothing for it.
