Given the following variables:

a = 26 (value is 0 if no alphabet present)
n = 10 (value is 0 if no numbers are present)
s (shift + the numbers above the alphabet keys) = 10 (value is 0 if special characters aren't present)

The modified formula for guessing your password becomes (a + n + s) ^ (x + 1)

Well I dont have a "super basic" mind

Changing your password isn't really required. The way SMF stores your password makes them quite secure, it was only a precautionary message of something that happened before 2013.

I will update the OP to make it more accurate.
