;Example:
A greataxe has a [[damage factor]] of .650 against the cloth [[Armor]] Group (AG). Under the effect of Arm of the Arkati it would be:


Training in [[Spiritual Lore, Summoning]] increases the DF bonus by +1% per seed 5 [[summation]], starting from 1% at 5 lore ranks to a maximum bonus of +16% at 200 lore ranks.
.650 * [1 + ([[DF]] bonus% / 100)] = .715


With the increased bonus comes an increased [[Mana Point]] (MP) cost. The base MP cost is 5, +1 for every additional percentage above 10, +1 for each member of the group.
==Lore benefits==
This bonus is increased by training [[Spiritual Lore, Summoning|Spiritual Lore: Summoning]]. A bonus of 1 percentage point is achieved at 5 lore ranks - a maximum bonus of 16 percentage points gained at 200 lore ranks.

The increased bonus comes at a cost. The initial [[mana]] cost of 5 is increased by 1 for every added percentage point beyond the original mana point cost, plus 1 for every member of the group.
