How much ED does an item get from being ethereal? (ED works for both...)

Ethereal will adjust the base damage by
damage=int(3*base/2) Then you will apply the ED factors to this new value. 
Someone feel free to correct me but I think its 50%-to-base also.
I had found a 4 socket eth loricated armor that was around 721 or so. 2/3 of that would be around what 'normal' loricated armors get. There were more examples of this but my mule got umm .. eaten in the now infamous January realm 'maintenance'. Edit: I also have a near 1800 def ethereal corpsemourn someone donated for my merc! .. a 50% improvement on the usual near-1200 corpsemourne..

Just to mention too, the durability of the item should be:
Int(normal durability/2)+1

I'll trust Ruvanal with the formula, but I must say I was delighted to find a three socket 896 def superior kraken shell tonight! Now the question is whether to make Lionheart or hope the patch has something better.
This was 14% enhanced def. Anyone know what is the maximum percent on superior items?

Say an armour normaly has 500 def. eth armour will be 50% more, or 3/2 times normal.
If someone does want to find def/dmg on an item, just times the figure by 1.5 note to anyone out there....... I need a zod for an eth hellslayer!!!!! B)
What is this life if, full of care
We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.

Well, unless you're willing to trade for something you can be 99.9% sure is a dupe then you might as well just get half an hour's fun out of that Hellslayer and then chuck it :)
Of course 1.10 might make Zod more findable The other significantly useful aspect of ethereal is lowered requirements

What's really nice about ethereal is how it's applied....instead of being added like a normal ed% modifier (like it was in previous LoD patches) - it instead effects the base d (use it for defense or damage).
IE (simplified formulas.....not gonna bother typing out the huge one again): -convert all %'s to decimals (ie 35% = .35) Defense = (Def * 1.5) * (ed% + 1) Damage = (Dmg * 1.5) * (ed% + 1) [edit: I need to get my eyes checked...I didn't notice someone had already said this even though I read over it....]
