([Shield](Corvanis%20Armor.md) and [Corvanis Armor](Corvanis%20Armor.md) are added together and your [Heft](Heft.md) is then calculated) This lasts for 1 round. This can only be used with unarmed strikes. (If Piercing Palm bypasses more itemized AR than an enemy presently has, the attack does not get the benefit of cut damage. They still have that AR so cut doesn't apply.)
