A question about stats.Follow

#1 Nov 22 2004 at 8:58 AM Rating: Decent
While playing the open beta, I had a good amount of spells cast on me. I am just wondering if anyone can give the details on the different stats. I was shocked when someone casted a stamina spell and it raised my HP bar.

So, I'm trying to find out if anyone can give specifics on Stregnth, Agility, Stamina, Intellect, Spirit etc. I know this makes me look really stupid, but I'd like to know so I can equip myself more effectively instead of keeping the gear that "looks cool".

I'll make it easier on everyone. When you get the game, make a character and go to your char screen...point your mouse at the stats and it tells you what they do. ;)

Given the fact that this is a blizzard game, they probably didn't change basic stats aspect they normally used in Diablo etc... although there are bound to be some additions ofcourse. Basicly what stats gave you in diablo were:

STR: The damage you did with a weapon
AGI: Dodge/Evasion (i think this also increased your stamina points)
DEX: Accuracy with your weapon
INT: Effectiveness for spells
VIT: Hitpoints

Ofcourse for alot of items you also needed a certain lvl with these stats. f.e. strength you needed to wear a piece of armor

as far as Stamina goes, it basicly served as your running energy.


You might already know this, so I wrote this just incase you were kinda new with the whole Blizzard RPG thing.

If you played FFXI you will know that they did some wierd stuff with stats there. Basicly I'm glad we're going to use the "logical" blizzard stats ^^

Cya on WOW soon,

Cheers AereozZ


PS: Ofcourse as Ikerus said everyone will probably be better of just looking at the stats in the char creation screen :)

Strength increases how much damage you block with shield and I think how much melee damage you do.
Agility increases chance to dodge and stuff...also your melee and ranged damage.
Stamina increases your health
Intelligence increases how fast you gain skill levels (combat, not completely sure about crafts).
Spirit I can't remember exactly.

What other stats are there? lol

Spirit (i believe) effects the regen rate of your health and mana.

Anyone can feel free to dispute/support this, but I'm pretty sure I'm correct

Yeah that's right, I just couldn't remember. Also, I left out that agility increases chance of criticals. I probably left out some other things...like I think int increases mana.
