Max Dmg and % Enhanced Damage

The bug is widely known about when using jewels with a source of +dmg and % enhance damage in items other than weapons....however, what about paladin shields, they have %enhanced damage on them as standard and low level duellers add +max damage which doesnt bug them.

I, supposedly foolishly, placed 4 15/20's in a shield...look at the results below, the only difference between the two pics are the shield which both have the same amount of +max.

Perhaps it wasnt a mistake after all, especially after being told that ALL the source of %enhanced damage would now affect the minimum damage, which it clearly hasnt. I was going to strip it and replace with plain ones with resi, its staying as it is now!

1: Don't trust the LCS
2: The bug occurs when ED% is added to an item after max damage. It just so happens that if a jewel has +max and ED%, the +max will apply first, triggering the bug. Placing a 30% ED jewel and then a +15 max jewel in an armor would not cause the bug, but placing them in in the reverse order would cause it.

Is this only melee dmg or any damage done to enemy, say like psn dmg?

There is another BIG difference - one Shield has a +65%ED mod and the other does not. It's comparing apples and oranges.
