Statistic

Statistics (or stats), refer to a character's innate physical and mental abilities and aptitude. There are ten statistics in total, divided into three classes: Physical (Strength, Constitution, Dexterity and Agility), Mental (Logic, Intuition, Wisdom and Influence) and Hybrid (Discipline and Aura).

Statistics are placed by a player at the time of a character's creation (or later on using a fixstats potion) and these values will increase as the character's level increases, up to a maximum of 100. When placing statistics points, there are 640 points available to divide between the statistics, although each profession has two primary stats which receive an additional 10 points each on top of the initial 640. During statistic placement, a minimum of 20 points must be allocated to each statistic and only four statistics can have more than 70 points (not including the +10 modifier for prime statistics). As a character gains experience and increases in level, the stats will increase based on a predetermined growth rate, which varies based on the character's profession and race.

In addition to the raw values, each of the ten statistics is assigned a bonus. The bonus for a particular statistic is based on the value of the raw statistic as well as a racial modifier using the formula

BONUS = (STAT-50)/2 + RACIAL MODIFIER.

Effects of Statistics

Statistics and their bonuses are a factor in many formulae, with different stats influencing various actions, attributes and spells, as well as a character's AS, CS and DS. In addition, the raw values for the statistics also significantly influence how many training points a character is allocated each level.

Below is a summary of all the statistics. Here, each statistic is listed with its type, professions for which it is a prime statistic and the main systems affected by that particular statistic.
