Does Eth Bug Actually Work?

There is an odd thing that I have noticed lately. You see, I have two Stone Archons. One is a standard non-eth version with 2016 defense. The other is an ebug Archon with 3124 defense. I have 28k defense with the normal and 37K with the ebug one. Whenever I use it, I never notice a difference in how often I'm hit. Is the display with eth bug items wrong? Or are there breakpoints with defense? *OR* am I just imagining things? A little help would be much appreciated.

explain ebug pliz

also there was another post that said the eth armors(actually said the difference in hits between 21k and 38k was negligible or not there...)

that was me, talking in the is SS viable thread.

check out that thread..

But rees is talking about E.BUg Armor.

E Bug = An industrictable armor that is etherel, that usually cannot be Etherel with Indistrictable mod thus enabeling it to socketed with a Ber, Jah, or a Rune word etc..

in his case, he has a stone armor, usually if its etherel, it will break.

but his is Etherel Indistructable, so it wil never break and has significantly higher defense.

how do u to get indestructible plus ethereal? I heard something about zod it and then unsocket and mods still works, duuno if its true tho. Stoutwood is gonna explain it, isnt he?

This is possible thanks to a glitch in the game.

When 1.10 first came out, previously in 0.9 people had items that were Etherel Zod'ed making them indistructable.

Well when the patch hit, they did HEL + Tp to unsocket them and they still had the same Indistructable mod on them But they now, no longer had Zod in them, Thus letting you put what ever the heck u wanted to in them.

This was most common with Valor , and some 4 skt etherel armors, Claws that were used for chaos, Some weapons used for runewords.

this DOES NOT work any longer, it only worked for the first week of the patch being out.

You can test this by having low, but consistent, damage weapons on you and your opponent. Make sure you and your opponent can take at least 20 hits.
