Stats

Your character's combat effectiveness is determined by two core stats: Attack and Defense. These stats work together to help you survive, win battles, and secure better rewards.

🗡️ Attack

What It Does:
Determines how effectively you can damage enemies and win encounters.

Where It Comes From:

• Equipped weapons

• Each weapon has a modifierHearts value that adds to your total Attack stat

How It Helps:

• Increases your odds of defeating monsters

• Boosts damage dealt in raid battles

• Improves loot quality after successful encounters

🛡️ Defense

What It Does:
Reduces incoming damage and boosts survivability.

Where It Comes From:

• Armor pieces: head, chest, legs

• Shields

• Each piece contributes its modifierHearts value to your total Defense stat

How It Helps:

• Mitigates damage from monster attacks

• Enhances endurance in prolonged fights

• Supports reliable performance across all combat scenarios

⚔️ How Attack & Defense Work Together

🔁 Regular Combat (Looting, Travel, etc.)

Equipment provides chance-based bonuses when actions succeed:

• Weapons:
  ➤ Attack Stat × 10 added to your roll (if successful)

• Armor/Shields:
  ➤ Defense Stat × 2 added to your roll (if successful)

• Success Rate:
  ➤ Higher stats = better chance of triggering equipment bonuses

Example:
A character with 3 Attack and 2 Defense has:

• 30% chance to get +30 from their weapon

• 4% chance to get +4 from their armor

🛡️ Raid Combat (Boss Battles)

In raid combat, gear always helps — no randomness involved:

• Weapons:
  ➤ Always add Attack Stat × 2.5 to your roll

• Armor/Shields:
  ➤ Always add Defense Stat × 1.1 to your roll

Example:
A character with 3 Attack and 2 Defense in a raid gets:

• +7.5 to their roll from their weapon (guaranteed)

• +2.2 to their roll from their armor (guaranteed)
