Arm of the Arkati provides the paladin's group with a 10% bonus to the base damage factor of their melee or hurled weapon.

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:

.650 * [1 + (DF bonus% / 100)] = .715

Lore benefits

This bonus is increased by training 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.
