So far, at least when you have a mercenary group of Sunscale Cultists, when they apply the "allies gain divine might/shield" Type effects, nothing changes. Their stats remain the same and they gain no status effects.

For example when that happened, despite having three Sunscale Cultists in the party, none of them had any stat or status changes. (The defensive one also didn't seem to do anything.)
