Going dark triples your strength; going clean weakens you by thirty percent.
When a dungeon BOSS became a Chosen Player's Servant unit for certain reasons, some of its stats inevitably suffered reductions.
The hardest-hit areas were the Strength-to-HP Ratio and Spirit-to-MP Ratio.
Take the Blazing King Dragon as an example. Back when it was a Leader Template BOSS Unit, its Strength-to-HP Ratio was as high as 1:300. Seventy-five points of Strength Attribute could provide a total of 22,500 HP.
But after becoming a Bonded Beast, its Strength-to-HP Ratio was weakened to the same 1:100 as the Scarlet Tyrannosaurus Rex. Its total HP plummeted to 7,500, no longer even five digits.

Not only that, but the damage values of their skills had also been adjusted downward into a range more suitable for Chosen Players. They could no longer wipe out more than 20,000 points of Cheng Tian's Guardian Barrier HP in one go like before.

As the blinding radiance and terrifying thermal shockwave swept over them once more, that familiar agony pierced straight through Behemoth's body and soul.
Already incredibly weakened by prolonged starvation and repeated beatings, Behemoth lost consciousness completely beneath the assault of
