I have this circlet



and this jewel



if I add the jewel will it add more Enhanced damage and NOT be bugged in any way (like other ED jewels in helms are).

Thanks!

After the jewel was inserted, the ED that was originally on the jewel will basically be ignored.
So despite the text will say "ED+70", you'll get "ED+22" in reality.
All other modifiers will work as expected.

I thought the bug didn't apply if the base item had ED on it already

Yes, i've seen that as well multiple times, but without any source leading to any actual testing.
Since the release of ROTW, 2 important things have been confirmed:
- ED present on the target item before the socketing isn't affected by the bug.
- ED present on the target item before the socketing doesn't prevent the ED on the jewel from being affected by the bug.
