This is a bestiary def crystal that will give my bestiary def units (griff - undeads) a 40% bonus when defending against infantry, 32% against cav and so on.

and the others do their bonus for other class units.

I cant say for certain as i am an offence player and have no def crystals active.

BUT i have off crystals active and they show in the unit stats.

Mara's Justice is the beast crystal

When you look at the actual troop statistics in your Sentry House it shows a 22.04% bonus for a level 12 for both Griffins and Undead Dragons

but when you look at the crystal in the Sanctum of Shards it only shows a bonus of 12% for beast

I am going to assume the bonus in the troop stats increase with the lost arts level and xp levels of the units

I get the theory but not sure how you would even gauge if it worked in reality.  It's still confusing but at least I'm applying the shards correctly based on the theory of how they work.

Hello.

When you're checking Basic Defense of the Unit it gives you an average number of these Bonuses:

But if you open the detailed Stats of the Unit, you'll get this Bonus displayed for each type of the Unit:

Well its a bit complext for this bonus.

Def has 4 stats, one against each type of unit (infantry / cavalry / occult / bestiary).

The bonus of the shard is different depending on what type of unit is attack it. Maybe they left it off the list for that reason? I guess it could show an average bonus, like it shows an average power for the defensive units overall.
