What exactly is Enhanced Defense/Damage? If an item looks like this:

100 Defense
15% ED

Does that mean it has 115 armor really? Or does it mean that it had
like 88 armor and 15% was applied to make 100. Or does it mean that it
has 100 defense, and that total defense is increased by 15%? Or am I
totally off?

Only post if you're sure.

When it comes to raw defense on armor, what you see is what you get. In
this example the base armor def was 87, so 1.15 * 87 = 100. The only
time an armor will have additional defense that does not get listed on
the raw number, is in the case of additional defense against missles.

The Defense shown is the current Defense with all bonuses already
applied... 87 Defense armor with 15% applied to make it 100 Defense.
