All about Stats

[Kris]

This is the official info Kezzerdrix gave us.
(Kezzerdrix is one of Outspark Community Managers.)

Strength (STR): physical damage (w/ bonus every 5 points)
Dexterity (DEX): aim and evasion
Endurance (END): defense, HP, and shield defense
Intelligence (INT): magic damage (w/ bonus every 5 points)
Spirit (SPR): magic defense, critical hit rate, SP

Now some people will find this a bit too vague.
This topic will try to give more in-depth infos about them.

/!\ The following was google-translated from the Japanese website (Bright Kingdom Online) so it's probably not 100% accurate.

Note that Dexterity (DEX) is known as Agility (AGI), Endurance (END) as Vitality (VIT) and Spirit (SPR) as Mind (MND) on the Japanese version, I'll stick with Kezzerdrix's translation.



This should give us the following sub-stats :

Hit Points (HP) - Your health gauge, affected by END.
Spirit Points (SP) - Your mana gauge, affected by SPR.
Physical Damage - Damage dealt with your regular attacks and Skills, affected by STR.
Defense - Physical Damage reduction, affected by END.
Magic Power - Damage dealt with your Spells, affected by INT.
Magic Defense - Magic Damage reduction, affected by SPR.
Aim - The accuracy of your attacks, affected by DEX.
Evasion - Chance to dodge attacks, affected by DEX.
Critical Hit Rate (hidden sub-stat) - Chance to inflict a Critical Attack, affected by SPR.
Shield Block Rate (hidden sub-stat) - Chance to block attacks with your Shield, affected by END.
