Toughness
You will want your character’s toughness stat extremely high if you want your character at the front of the line, going toe to toe with enemies. They need to be able to withstand a couple of blows and shrug it off like its nothing. Toughness affects the following two stats:
- Health: The available total health of your character is higher with more points, allowing you to take more damage overall.
- All Resistances Scores: The more your points in this stat, the more your character’s resistance against all damage types that an enemy could use against them.
Agility
For characters who are always moving across a battlefield and who prefer to keep on their toes, you want them to have a high agility score. Agility is also a defensive stat, in addition to being a great factor in how many attacks your character can do. Agility affects these three stats:
- Dodge Chance Score: Your character has the opportunity to avoid an attack without relying on armor to absorb the damage with a higher dodge chance.
- Attack Speed Score: How often you can use your weapon is determined by the character’s attack speed and the higher it goes the more often you can unleash it on your enemies.
- Spell Casting Speed Score: Similar to attack speed. the higher the spell casting speed number is, the more often your character can use damaging spells against your opponents.
Wisdom
Wisdom works in a different way. It determines how well your characters spells can damage their opponents, and the amount of resilience they have against other spells. For example, if you possess a cold spell, the higher ailment chance will give your character a chance to freeze and opponent on an attack. These are the following stats tied to wisdom:
- Status Ailments Resilience Score: Your character has a lesser chance of taking damage from an opponent’s specific attack and have an effect from any magical effects with a higher ailments resilience score.
- Attack Status Ailment Chance Score: If your character’s weapon has a magical ailment attached to it, then they have a chance to cause extra damage and effects to their opponents.
- Spell Status Ailment Chance Score: Similar to the previous stat, this stat determines any magical ailment attacks your spells might have, causing more damage to your opponents.
