Avowed features six core attributes:

• Might: Enhances physical and spiritual strength, boosting damage output from all sources and increasing carry capacity. High Might unlocks unique dialogue options, potentially intimidating foes or avoiding combat.
• Constitution: Improves overall health and stamina, increasing maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding. Also unlocks specific dialogue options.
• Dexterity: Increases attack and action speed, enhancing weapon and ability use, consumable deployment, parkour, and reload speed. Boosts overall mobility.
• Perception: Improves critical hit chance and maximum range for ranged weapons (bows, wands, guns). While offering additional dialogue options, their impact on gameplay is minimal.
• Intellect: Increases maximum essence and resistance to fire, shock, and frost. Crucial for spellcasters, but also beneficial for characters utilizing essence-based abilities. Unlocks additional dialogue options.
• Resolve: Boosts maximum stamina and Second Wind efficiency. Synergizes well with heavy weapon and tank builds. Unlocks dialogue options with effects similar to Constitution.

Attribute Ranking and Optimization

While each attribute benefits specific builds, some offer broader advantages. Here’s our ranking to guide your character creation and attribute point investment:

6. Perception: Perception's benefits (critical hit chance and ranged weapon range) are situational. While useful against specific enemies, its overall impact is limited, especially given the prevalence of close-quarters combat. Consider investing minimally, potentially respeccing for specific encounters.

7. Resolve: Increased stamina is valuable, but readily obtainable through unique armor. Second Wind, while helpful, is often outweighed by strategies focusing on health, damage mitigation, or mobility.

8. Intellect: Essential for magic users, Intellect's elemental resistances and increased maximum essence are valuable even for non-magic builds due to the prevalence of essence-consuming abilities.

9. Dexterity: A versatile attribute beneficial to all builds. The increased attack and action speed significantly improves mobility and DPS, making it a solid investment across playstyles.

10. Constitution: Improved maximum health and resistance to poison and bleed are crucial for survivability. Poison and bleed effects are frequently lethal, making Constitution a high-priority attribute.

11. Might: The most impactful attribute. Increased damage across all weapons dramatically improves DPS, while the carry capacity boost is indispensable for managing inventory and loot.

This ranking offers a framework for building your Avowed character. Remember to adapt your attribute allocation based on your preferred playstyle and build.
