Hi, I am playing DH and have etheral Ballista with Dawn’s power with 56% cdr. At the same time I have cubed Dawn to have 65% cdr. However, with Ballista equiped cooldown takes longer then without it, indicating that game doesn’t take highest value rather than the one from Etheral.
No.
It takes the equipped version.
You just happen to be using an ethereal.
Not a bug. Equipped items values ALWAYS take precedence over the Cube.
This has worked for ANY item, its not limited to ethereals.
Think I might add this to the Not a bug’s list.

When you have the same power on an equipped item, and in the Cube, the value of the equipped item is always used, even if that’s a lower value than the maximised value the Cube would give you. The Cube has always worked this way. It’s not something new due to Ethereals.
Not a bug. Behaviour is intended design.

Thanks all for the input, didn’t know that!
A much needed addition.
The ethereals make things even complicated because if you have a normal item and ethereal with the same power equipped, it’s the normal item taking precedence over the ethereal. There’s a priority order that determines which version of power is used. The normal item has the highest priority, then the ethereal and the cubed power has the lowest.
