So adding up my total IED, my stats should be showing 100% (102% total) but its only showing 82%. I'm not too sure how the stat actually adds up or if somethings wrong here... 30% from 4 sup gollux, 40% on fafnir (10% + 2x 15% pot), 20% from CRA gear. So gear alone should give me 90% right? But it was saying 79% so i added a few points in IED in hyper stats and 12% (lvl 4), got me to 82%...Almost forgot to mention lvl 2 Light Wash was active as well when adding up to 82%. Taking it off got me to 78%. I'm quite confused. Help lol

    So do you not get full % value after a certain point or something?

    IED does not add up linearly.
    Instead, every new source of IED only applies to the enemy defense that is not yet ignored.
    For example, if you have 30% from sup gollux, and then roll 30% IED on your secondary, it doesn't add up to 60. The second 30 only applies to the 70 "left over" after the first 30 got applied, so it only gives 21%. The total from these two sources adds up to 51%.

    If you want to get into the math of it, here's a more detailed explanation on how IED% works: https://strategywiki.org/wiki/MapleStory/Formulas#Ignore_DEF
