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 altogether.
• Constitution: Improves overall health and endurance, increasing maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding effects. It also unlocks specific dialogue choices.
• Dexterity: Increases attack and action speeds for weapons and abilities, enhancing mobility, item usage, and reload speed. A versatile attribute boosting overall efficiency.
• Perception: Boosts critical hit chance and maximum range for ranged weapons (bows, wands, guns). While offering additional dialogue options, their impact on gameplay is often minimal.
• Intellect: Improves maximum essence and resistance to ignited, shocked, and frozen statuses. Crucial for spellcasters but also beneficial for characters utilizing essence-based abilities. Unlocks additional dialogue options.
• Resolve: Increases maximum stamina and Second Wind efficiency. Synergizes well with heavy weapons and tank builds. Unlocks dialogue options with effects similar to Constitution.

Ranking Avowed's Attributes

While each attribute serves specific builds, some offer broader advantages. Here's our ranking:

6. Perception: Perception's benefits (critical hit chance and ranged weapon range) are situational. While useful against specific enemies, its overall impact is limited given the prevalence of close-quarters combat. A few attribute points might be worthwhile, but prioritizing other attributes is generally recommended.

7. Resolve: While increased stamina is valuable, many unique armor pieces offer similar boosts, reducing Resolve's necessity. Second Wind, though helpful, is often outweighed by strategies focusing on health maximization and damage mitigation.

8. Intellect: Intellect's value lies in increased maximum essence and elemental resistance. Elemental resistance is crucial for survival, and even non-magical builds benefit from increased essence for various abilities.

9. Dexterity: A balanced attribute improving attack and action speeds, benefiting all builds. Increased mobility and DPS make it a worthwhile investment regardless of playstyle.

10. Constitution: Increased maximum health and poison/bleed resistance are invaluable for survivability. Poison and bleed are frequent causes of death, making Constitution's resistance a significant advantage.

11. Might: Might is the most impactful attribute. The damage increase across all weapons significantly boosts DPS, while the carry capacity increase is essential for managing inventory and loot.

This ranking provides a framework for attribute allocation in Avowed. Remember to adapt your approach based on your chosen playstyle and build.
