*Question* Odds and Ends of Stat functions?

[Alkarion]

Well, I've recently joined and so far this game looks real good. With it being in the CB2 stage and such I've notice yes, there is guides but not very many, and commonly it said just to do it yourself. Well, since I can't play and such, I'd figure I would research the game mechanics until then. Well, I haven't actually found much information on that exactly. The base of this is simply,

1. How are the attributes for your character suppose to work, (EX:such as Strength giving a higher Melee Damage Rating)?
OR
2. What ARE the attributes?

I've looked around the forums and haven't seen any but maybe I just missed them..... anyway any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I may be wrong, but all the info I've gained is by highlighting the stats in the window (C button).* If you click on "Free Points" in said window, you'll open up a screen that appears to show the stat boosts that you've given yourself with your current choice of stat increases.

i don't know if it will help, but this is what i know of stats from cb1. For every 5 points you add to a stat, it will increase it by 1. To know what a stat is for and does. Click "Free Stat" it will highlight each attribute and what it adds.

No screenies, but I'll give you a rundown.


At level up, you get 1 point. You can raise one of these, which have the following effects per point:


Strength: Min & Max Damage +1 (every 5th point you add gives you 2 instead of one)


Dexterity: Aim +.3%, Evasion + .2%


Endurance:?: Adds Defense, HP, and shield blockrate


(I haven't added any, so I don't concretely know the figures... I'm thinking somewhere in the ballpark of 5 hp, .5 def, .2% block)


Intelligence:?: Adds Magic Damage (Again, most likely 1 per level with a bonus with every 5th point)


Spirit: Magic Defense +.5, Critical rate +.2%, and SP +5


The game specifically tells you what the stats you've added are doing, as well as lets you keep track of how many you've added to each stat. It's incredibly helpful for monitoring your build.


Edit:I forgot to mention that this applies to all classes. So no damage or crit bonus for having a really dexterous archer.
