Upgrading items in general
Hello,
I know how to upgrade items and I've done it many times before, and I have also done google searches concerning my inquiry. Maybe I'm thick-headed, but I am still confused. Here is my question:
1) When you upgrade something, does the % enhanced damage and defense even matter anymore? I have a 200% ed pair of goreriders, but when I upgraded them I failed to get the best mymr greaves defense (if I read the numbers correctly). So, would a 'p upped' pair of gores refer to the perfect defense mymr greaves can have, or just any 200% ed upgraded pair? I would think the former because I have upgraded magefists and lower % ed mages have gotten higher overall D than higher % ed mages.
2) Really, I'm wondering about an ethereal Hoz. This is where I'm really confused because of the ethereal-ness. I have seen a site that has a 200% ed ethereal upped hoz, but it didn't obtain the highest D possible (which I think is 867 D. SO, does this means that the % ed is effectively negated when upgrading an eth hoz? Can any eth hoz obtain the perfect D after upgraded?
Thanks a lot. I'm just really confused.
