The text of Glorfindel, Eldarin Lord states that minions skirmishing him cannot gain strength bonuses from possessions. Does this also include hunter bonuses that possessions give?

Specifically, does Glorfindel’s text cancel the hunter bonus from Orkish Hunting Spear?
I had to put something here.

I would guess no, because it’s a hunter bonus, not a strength bonus. The hunter bonus in turn results in a strength bonus. So the spear doesn’t directly add to the strength, it adds to the hunter. The hunter, then, (which now belongs to bearer, not the spear) adds strength.

But I could be wrong.
Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true.

Yeah, except that Seasoned Leader is a condition, not possession, so Glorfindel, Eldarin Lord wouldn’t have affected it anyway.

Yep, lem0n’s right. Hunter bonuses are completely unaffected.
