==Summary==
* Maximum Discipline bonus of +18 (+12 from Calm, +6 from Focus)
* Maximum Intelligence and Charisma bonuses of +12 each (from guile - see below)
* Maximum Reflex and Agility bonuses of +6 each (from focus)
* Provides strong protection from SvW spells and intimidation effects (such as barbarian roars and others)

==Details==
* The second sentence of the description, "It has been found to also further help with intellectual pursuits and sweet talking others" refers to the fact that Guile's capped boost of +8 to intelligence and charisma is increased to a capped boost of +12 for each stat when part of the cunning combination
* While Calm doesn't receive an additional stat boost from the Cunning combination (Calm by itself gives a capped boost of +12 to discipline) the Cunning combination further boosts the SvW and intimidation protection of Calm
* Khri Focus is unchanged by this combination, but must still be present
