What its power does
Hist-Sap
Each magic round you regenerate 2% of your health, 4% while you are under half.
How it drops
Where it drops
There is no monster that carries The Mark of the Hist and no chest that holds it. A piece of jewellery drops first (Mark), and if that piece rolls Legendary on the ladder, the game picks one named record that fits it. Records found among beast sources weigh five to one, so The Mark of the Hist is far likelier from the places listed here. Any weapon, armour or jewellery in any corpse or treasure pile can be rolled, so a source of another family can still give it, at the lower odds shown on the last line.
Getting the base piece
A piece has to drop before it can be Legendary. These come from the loot tables (see Loot tables) and from what a foe carries. The odds above are per eligible piece, at Luck 50, with no finders. Luck, Foxglove and a long dry spell multiply them, as the Item rarity page explains.
Items (legendary pieces made from it)
MarkLoot rarity is on by default and forced on online. A Legendary is the second rung from the top of the ladder (Common, Magic, Rare, Legendary, Aetheric, Artifact, Gilded). Its bonuses are fixed; only its condition varies. Foes of its family drop it five times as readily as any other.
