Attributes For Your Character

About Attributes

Attributes define your character's strengths, both physical and mental. There are 6 attributes, and a new characters starts at level 4 of each attribute.

The Maximum level possible for each attribute is 52.

What's really important are what are called Cross Attributes. Each of your Attributes affects 3 of the Cross Attributes.

Cross-Attributes

Cross Attributes are what actually affect your character. Each Cross Attribute is increased by 2 pickpoints placed on either of the Attributes that affects it.

The value of the Cross Attribute is the integer total of the levels of the two attributes that affects it, divided by 2.

For Example: The Cross Attribute Might is affected by the Attributes Physique and Coordination. Placing 2 pickpoints on Physique, or 2 pickpoints on Coordination, or 1 pickpoint on each will increase Might by 1.

With that in mind, Cross Attributes will also max out at level 52.

This image shows how the Cross Attributes are affected by the Attributes.

Cross Attributes vs Attributes

Even Numbers Rule!

Because it takes 2 pickpoints to affect Cross Attributes, you'll always be getting the most bang for your pickpoints by keeping your Attributes at even numbers.

To Level an Attribute

Go to The Wraith on Isla Prima. Select the Attribute you want. Each Attribute costs 1 Pickpoint.

To Remove an Attribute

You can remove an Attribute, getting your pickpoint back, by using an Attribute Removal Stone. There is a stone for each Attribute type.

Attribute Removal Stones are found as rare items while harvesting, thus bought from players or their bots.
