Yes its this.

It increases your mastery, how that affects the stats, I cannot say for certain.

I dont know if doubling mastery doubles the stats it affects.
Maybe @scuba can help

Mastery is actually a very small boost. In this video from the release of the first Galactic Legends I did the math and you can see the exact stats gains characters get.

Mastery bonus seems fairly straight forward to me. A character that has 45 mastery and gets a 100% bonus to it will have 90 mastery. On that has 30 till get 60. Makes sense.

For me, where it gets muddy is with SLKR:s mastery siphon. According to his kit he siphons mastery based on percentage not points. Let's say a character has 45 mastery. SLKR has 100 stacks of siphon and drains 100% of the guy's mastery. Then he should now have 0 mastery. And if does it again he will have -45 mastery. Makes sense so far. But if he does the same to a character with 30 mastery, will he drain 30 points of mastery, making it more impactful against higher reliced characters? And how exactly does it work against non-reliced characters? How do you drain a percentage of 0 (which the FAQ stated he could)? Or is the percent bit of the kit just wrong (or misunderstood by me) and an SLKR with 100 siphon actually drains 100 points of mastery so the first example would actually go from 45 to -55?

Look thru slkr kit release (I think it is there), one of the devs mentioned about this and I can't remember if they said mastery can go negative or not

It can go negative. It's in the announcements about mastery itself.

Ok I knew it was somewhere.

It will grant 100% mastery- so take their current mastery and double it

Yes.

I would think it's just the first one. Found another strength attacker at a lower relic level who only had 15 Mastery, and the stat boosts were exactly 1/3 of the r7 boosts. So 90 Mastery should double the bonuses.

1170 damage on JKA with crit damage set and 6-dot triangle amounts to around 6,800 additional damage on a crit from basic. A little over 10,000 more damage if he had offense up. However, under JML lead with the other offense bonus and the crit damage up from the ultimate, this means JKA is doing an additional 17,922 damage on a crit from his basic (with offense up). If he also had Master's training from GMY, the additional damage now becomes 22,000.

+90 armor penetration takes him from 290 to 380. How that affects damage mitigation depends on the armor of the enemy, but I'll take it.

Edit: So I forgot about JKL. Putting Jedi's Will on Anakin will increase the crit damaged gained just from the doubling of Mastery to 24,000.

I did the total damage calc for my R7 Anakin assuming post-ultimate JML lead (including the Crit Damage Up), Offense Up, Master's Training, and Jedi's Will: 192,182 on basic, not counting damage variance or defense, but he'd have 380 armor penetration. So a really high armor character at around 65% would only be reduced to 55.5%. So like a Malak would only take 85,521 if you land the crit. But any character with below 37.4% armor would receive full damage.

IIRC for most of the stats under the last part (Health/protection/damage) you can simply divide the stat by the mastery stat and get the stat increase per mastery value
The % based stats are little bit different

Also the stat boosts show in the mastery screen is before mods

Just looked thru stat Calculator. basically the only ones that will be werid to try an figure out will be armor and resistance. The only stats are simply a multiplier * mastery stat
