Ok, so I know I've got to be doing this wrong. I'm trying to figure out the formula of untraining exp. I know that when you untrain certain things, you only get a percentage of the exp you put in back. This is the formula I came up with, let me know if it's wrong:
(stat) x (percentage) = (how much exp you will get back)
then...
(how much exp you get back) - (original stat) = (how much exp will be lost)
Comments?

for a given stat:
trainedxp x untrain% = how much xp you get back
trainedxp x (1 - untrain%) = how much xp you lose
however since you don't know how much trainedxp there originally is and only how much you'll get back, you can figure it out with
(xp from untraining) / untrain% = original trainedxp
(original trained xp) - (xp from untraining) = lost xp
you'd want to use untrain% as a converted fraction in those (95% as .95 for example)
here's an example to make it less confusing.
I have 1,002,000 exp trained in my FB. I will only get 92% of that back according to the training page. So then, using my formula:
1,002,000 x .92 = 921,840.
then
1,002,000 - 921,840 = 80,160
So, by that, I will lose 80,160 exp when I untrain it. Is this right?

No, the 1,002,000 is your stat's level. Level is not the same as the amount of xp it contains. The only way to figure out how much xp it contains is the untrain xp amount (it shows you this # during training if you pull down the menu on any stat).
Untrain-amount / untrain% = total xp trained in the original stat
lol that's ok. I get the gist of it.
So between what you have here, and the formula Pit gave me in PM:
The actual unlearn stat for my FB (which is 12,261,612 in my case with a 92% still)
So then, using that figure:
12,261,612 divided by .92 = 13,327,839 (total exp in skill)
then
13,327,839 minus 12,261,612 = 1,066,227 (total exp lost)
Makes sense to me ^_^ lol

when you have an untraining of 95%, you will lose 5%. simple :)
