Magick Rebalancer (Magick Archer)
It boosts both Magick and Magick Defense. But how much exactly? Will it stack with Periapts? Does it just do as much as 4 Periapts and therefore negate the need to stock/use them?

The effect of one cast of Magick Rebalancer is the same as one Demon's Periapt and one Mage's Periapt used simultaneously. MB is interchangeable with periapts and the group buff curatives, however, you can only stack four at a time per stat type per person or the extra ones cancel.

Here's sort of a complicated example, given that the MB sigil will also buff pawns if they move into the sigil:

Arisen casts 2x MB. Pawns do not walk through. Rented pawn 1 uses 2x Salomet's Secrets, Rented pawn 2 uses 2x Mage's Periapts. Arisen then uses 1x Salomet's Secret, 1x Decoction of Bandlily.

Arisen: buffed magick, buffed DEF, MDEF.
Main Pawn: buffed magick, no buff to MDEF, buffed DEF
Pawn 1: buffed magick, no buff to MDEF, buffed DEF
Pawn 2: buffed magick, buffed DEF, MDEF

The Salomet's Secret used by the Arisen is canceled because it is the fifth buff to MATT.

All of these status effects stack up to 4x, including the defensive ones. The multiplicative effect of a 4x boost is 2.3 times the loadout stat, including augment effects.

Oh ♥♥♥♥ so I can cast it 4x and effectively not need periapts for magick damage anymore. That's beast.

Yes, exactly.

However, keep in mind that if you're benefiting from a performance-enhancing spell, your pawns will too. For the price of some spellcasting, boost your pawns' magick, too, and your magick users will be doubly effective.

Yeah, definitely. Makes life much easier.
