Mechanics

The relic grants the effects of  Mabon's Strength and  Relic of Mabon. After reaching 10 stacks all might applied to the player with the relic is increased.

• The 25% increase only applies to base might and is unaffected by traits like Awaken the Pain, Notoriety etc. On the other hand Pinnacle of Strength increases the base might.
• The 25% increase is calculated with roundup. At level 80, each stack grants 8 bonus power and condition damage per stack of might, thus the relic will grant 200 bonus power and condition damage at 25 might stacks.
