From the Fetish of the Dark Idols Quest quest introduced in the Treaties in Stone event.

Fetish of the Dark Idols
Value: 1 700 Burden Units
This bizarre creation seems to pulse in your hands, sending powerful ripples of energy through your arms. Combine this with any loot-generated atlatl, bow, or crossbow. The Fetish of the Dark Idols will apply a Magic Absorbing property and a Melee Defense penalty to the weapon. Although the weapon can be imbued before applying a Fetish of the Dark Idols, it cannot be imbued afterwards. The weapon may have non-imbue tinkers applied either before or after application of the Fetish of the Dark Idols. This item cannot be sold.

Notes

• Attach to a missile weapon to apply the Magic Absorbing property to it. The amount absorbed depends on your Magic Defense (Skill) and for this item caps (max) at a 25% damage reduction.
  • Warning: As a side effect, the missile weapon will also have its Melee Defense modifier reduced by 10% and can even be negative if less than 10% to start.
