What Character Stats Mean
FromFeifaetheforums:
http://forum.wulin.gpotato.eu/threads/2086GuideCharacterStatsHowdotheywork
Character Sheet Overview

Let's start with looking at character sheet accessible by pressing C or clicking the little guy
icon at the bottom of your screen.
On the left side you can see the paperdoll of your character along with slots for gear, your
alignment, etc. What interests us here is the tab on the right. It might be hidden at start
and to open it you will have to press the little arrow button. That's where you can see your
base statistics. Below it there are also 3 button letting you switch the tabs. First tab shows
the base stats, second shows your damage and defense stats and third is for Lore (which is
not available in US yet, and is used to change appearance of your gear with unique skins).
The whole system, while seemingly confusing at first, is not really that much different from
any other MMO or RPG you may be familiar with. The only thing that changed is the way
things are called. That's why...
Internal and External Damage

To understand how the stats work there is one thing we need to establish right from the
start, and that's the difference between attack types. In most of your fantasy RPGs/MMOs
you know you have physical (melee/ranged) skills as well as magical skills. It's actually same
in AoW, with the difference that magical skills are called Internal and physical skills are called
External.
Furthermore internal skills can be divided into 4 types, similar to elements in other fantasy
setting. Those 4 types are Ying, Yang, Hard and Soft.
Similarly External damage can be divided into melee and ranged damage.
To make things a bit more confusing the US translation is pretty inconsistent in that mater
and often uses other names for the internal damage types, like Gold for Hard and Wood for
Soft.
The Stats
So what's the stats? Well let's go through them one by one.
HP - Pretty self explanatory. It's your Health Pool, the amount of damage you can take
before you get kocked to the ground and killed.
Energy - That's the resource you use for skills, just like Mana in other fantasy games.
Flying - That's the pool used for your jumping and flying skills. Each advanced jump will
consume a chunk of those points. They regenerate the faster the more you have so if you
use them all up it will be a long wait before you can do all the fancy stuff again.
Vigor - This one is responsible for your Life Skills (crafting/gathering/etc). It's cap is based
on your highest profession level and it will regenerate once per day to full.
Nutrition - Your hunger meter. You need to eat food in AoW else you will have a hungry
debuff that reduces your HP pool by 25%.
Infamy - That's the part of PK system. The more you kill innocent people they higher it will
get. At Infamy score over 2000 you can be jailed, above 9000 after being jailed you also will
be executed. It can drop down over time, but if you are over 9000 you will have to find
someone with beggar life skill and pay them or face the consequences.
Alcohol - Your resistance to alcohol and drunk effects. Raising it can be helpful against some
of the debuffs, especially later Beggar's School skill sets.
Brawn - Also known as Strength, it's your primary physical melee stat responsible for
external melee damage and critical hit rates as well as having smaller effect on your HP pool.
Posture - Also known as Dexterity or Balance. This is your primary ranged stat, responsible
for external ranged damage, external hit (both ranged and melee), as well as Dodge chance.
Breath - Primary internal stat, responsible for internal damage as well as your max energy
pool.
Spirit - Second of the internal stats, responsible for internal hit rate, critical rate, internal
defense as well as energy recovery speed with a minor effect on max energy pool
Stamina - Universally useful stat that is responsible for your HP pool, as well as HP recovery
speed and Resilience which means resistance to critical hits.
Evade - This is your dodge rating. Successful dodge means you don't get hit all by enemy
attack.
Resilience - As mentioned before, this stat represents your resistance to critical hits. The
more Resilience you have the lower the crit chance against you.
Block Rating - This is your damage reduction when you are actively blocking.
External Defense - Your damage reduction against External damage types (both melee and
ranged).
