What is the Heart of Stone?

The Heart of Stone is a coveted artifact that enables players to harness the power of dragons without the need for armor. It is similar in function to the Priestess' Heart but comes with its own set of advantages and trade-offs:

Resistance Bonus: The Heart of Stone provides an additional 50 points of resistance, slightly less than the 70 points granted by the Priestess' Heart.

Damage Reduction: It offers a 10% reduction in damage taken, which surpasses the 7% reduction provided by its counterpart.

Dragon Communion Spells: While it does not enhance Dragon Cult spells directly, it significantly benefits Dragon Cult Communion spells. Notably, this boon does not consume Focus Points (FP) and can be combined with other buffs.

Duration: The empowering effect of the Heart of Stone lasts for 60 seconds once activated.
