Cube bug reapplies the 50% boost from being ethereal.

Cube bug > 15%.

Well, what do you find larger? 50% or 15%?

Cube bug is definitely bigger.

I have a 13% superior eth-Stone Archon Plate that has ~3.1k defense, but I've seen some bugged Stone AP's with ~4k.

A Normal non-eth armor cannot have more defense than a Superior non-eth armor of the same type. AFAIK if an armor has ED it will have a base defense of (maximum base defense of the type or armor we are talking about + 1) and then the percentage bonus is applied.

For example, a normal Sacred Armor has a max base defense of 600. If it has 15% ED, then it will have a base defense of 601, and after applying the bonus it should have 691 defense. If I am wrong, someone please correct me on this.

This fact should also be obvious when stating that normal non-eth armors have less defense than a normal eth armor of the same type.

Applying the same reasoning we find that normal Sacred armors have a base defense of 487-600, while eth Sacred armors have a 50% bonus to their base defense, thus giving them between 730 and 900.
