Aegis of Dawn enables

  • Restores Health to a unit, capped at maximum HP.

  • The physical-defense stat that reduces incoming AD damage. Tank items, Bastion-style traits, and ability bodies that read "Gain X Armor" or "Your team gains X Armor" all land here, alongside the handful of cards that scale a bonus off the unit's Armor value.

  • Drains a stat (Armor, Magic Resist, Attack Damage, Ability Power) from enemies and grants it to the source or an ally. Distinct from Shred and Sunder (one-way debuffs that only reduce the enemy stat) because the holder gains what the enemy loses.
