Dark and Light/Stats

=Note= all information is based on 0.88.81 and may (hopefully!) be subject to change as the game progresses. =The Stats=

STR
Strength influences the (melee?) damage a character can inflict with a basic (read: non-skill) attack. it also governs the maximum weight a character can carry.

CON
Constitution governs the maximum Hit Points and Stamina Points of your character. That makes it one of the most crucial stats for Fighters and Hunters.

DEX
High Dexterity improves the chance-to-hit for basic attacks. Whether or not it has an influence on skill-based attacks is not yet entirely certain.

QUI
Quickness hastens basic attacks (and thus probably also the rate at which skill based attacks can be used as long as they are not blocked due to cooldown). It also governs the character's chance of evading (only?) basic attacks.

As of 0.88.81, a high QUI value makes the character virtually untouchable with basic attacks. Because this leads to massive PvE imbalance in favor of casters with AoE Damage spells, it will propably be toned down in the future.

INT
Intelligence determines the maximum Mana Points of your character.

WIS
Wisdom governs the character's ability to regenerate. It was meant to be "to the healer what intelligence is to the caster", but as of now it is not certain how this is the case.

CHA
Charisma is the most enigmatic Stat, governing the character's Luck, which is currently an unknown variable. It will probably have an influence on trade later in the game.
