Avowed features six core attributes:
- Might: Enhances physical and spiritual strength, boosting damage from all sources and increasing carry capacity. High Might unlocks unique dialogue options, potentially intimidating foes or avoiding combat.
- Constitution: Improves overall health and endurance, increasing maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding. It also unlocks certain dialogue choices.
- Dexterity: Increases attack and action speeds for weapons, abilities, item use, and parkour, enhancing mobility and overall DPS (damage per second).
- Perception: Improves critical hit chance and maximum range for ranged weapons. While beneficial against certain enemies, its impact is situational. It also offers minor dialogue advantages.
- Intellect: Boosts maximum essence and resistance to ignited, shocked, and frozen statuses. Crucial for magic users, but also helpful for characters utilizing essence-based abilities. It provides additional dialogue options.
- Resolve: Increases maximum stamina and Second Wind efficiency. Ideal for heavy weapon users and tank builds. Dialogue options similar to Constitution are available.
Avowed Attribute Ranking
The effectiveness of attributes depends on your build, but some offer broader advantages. Here's our ranking:
6. Perception: While increased critical hit chance and range are appealing, their practical impact is often limited by the frequent close-quarters combat. Consider investing minimally, potentially respeccing for specific encounters.
5. Resolve: Increased stamina is valuable, but many unique armor pieces offer similar boosts, making Resolve somewhat redundant. Second Wind's effectiveness is also often outweighed by focusing on survivability through health and mobility.
4. Intellect: Elemental resistance is crucial, and increased maximum essence benefits even non-magic users due to the prevalence of essence-consuming abilities.
3. Dexterity: A versatile attribute that improves various aspects of gameplay, making it a worthwhile investment for almost any build. It enhances attack speed, action speed, and overall mobility.
2. Constitution: Increased maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding are vital for survivability, given the frequency of these debilitating effects.
1. Might: The most impactful attribute, significantly increasing damage output across all weapons and boosting carry capacity. The latter is invaluable for managing inventory and maximizing loot acquisition.
This ranking provides a guideline; optimal attribute allocation depends on your chosen playstyle and build.
