Ether Def Down (debuff)

Ether Defence Down (or Eth Def Down) is a debuff in Xenoblade Chronicles. It increases the amount of ether damage taken by the victim by a percentage.

The math of the debuff differs depending on whether it is applied to a party member or an enemy. For an example where the debuff's percentage is 25%:
 * On a party member with 200 ether defence, the value will be multiplied to equal 150.
 * On an enemy with 30% ether defence, the value will be subtracted to equal -5%.
