At character generation each of the six physical attributes is at 8, with 30 points to invest in them. Any attribute can be increased to a maximum of 18 at this time, but beyond 14 there are increased point costs:

Characters are awarded an additional attribute point at levels 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20, so at maximum level 20 an additional 5 attribute points have been awarded. These are not subject to the increased point costs which apply at character generation, so any attribute can be increased to a maximum of 23 by investing points.
Characters are granted an additional attribute point every fourth level, at levels 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20, so at maximum level 20 an additional 5 attribute points have been granted. If Recommended is selected during {{s|Experience|Level Up}} or Auto Level Up (which is '''not''' recommended), then how these points are invested depends on character [[../Classes|class]]:


However, it is not the attribute itself which is important but its modifier, which equals [attribute/2] - 5:

These aren't subject to the increased point costs which apply at character generation, so any attribute can be increased to a maximum of 23 by investing points.
 
However, it isn't the attribute itself which is important but its modifier, which equals (attribute – 10) / 2, rounded down:

Consequently it is normally a waste if an attribute is an odd number after all points and bonuses from equipment, stimulants, [[Star_Wars:_Knights_of_the_Old_Republic/Force powers|Force power]] and any Light Side or Dark Side mastery is taken into account.
Consequently it's normally a waste if an attribute is an odd number after all points and bonuses from [[../Items#Equipment|equipment]], [[../Stimulants|stimulants]], [[../Force powers/]] and any light or dark side [[../Alignment#Mastery|mastery]] is taken into account. However, these attributes bonuses are restricted to +20 maximum, which means main player characters can have maximum 43 (modifier +16) for any attribute without using [[../Cheats|cheats]] (although in practice, this can only be achieved with Strength, Dexterity or Constitution).

Strength modifier adds to the following:
Strength modifier (STR) adds to the following:

The following apply Strength bonuses:
Strength is the primary attribute of [[../Melee|melee]] attackers and offensive lightsaber users, particularly those using Critical Strike; pure [[../Ranged|ranged]] attackers and [[../Force/]] users have little or no use for it, so it can even be left at 8 upon [[../Character generation|character generation]].
 
Strength bonuses are granted by the following:

Maximum +22 Strength bonus and +11 Strength modifier for Dark Side Jedi, to be added to point investment.
Maximum Strength: +24 for an armored Jedi Guardian main character with light side mastery, or +22 for a dark Jedi: in both cases, this would be restricted to +20 (STR +10).

Dexterity modifier adds to the following:
Dexterity modifier (DEX) adds to the following:

* {{s|Combat|Defense}}

Dexterity is the primary attribute of [[../Ranged|ranged]] attackers and defensive lightsaber users, and can be a secondary attribute for [[../Force/]] users, as well as more defensive [[../Melee|melee]] characters.

{{s|Combat|Feats and effects}} mod is restricted to maximum Defense bonus 10 and the sum of Armor and Max Dexterity Bonus is always 9, so maximum Defense bonus 19 can be granted with ''any'' armor (although the [[../Force powers/]] required to maximize feats and effects are restricted by armor, so they'd need to be used ''before'' equipping it and engaging in combat).


The following apply Dexterity bonuses:
[[../Robes/]] don't actually have Max Dexterity Bonus, so if feats and effects are maximized then equal or higher Defense is possible with 28 Dexterity (DEX +9) or more; if restricted Force powers aren't used beforehand, then this is possible with 20 Dexterity (DEX +5), or less (since maximum Defense bonus granted with armor is otherwise just 15).
 
Dexterity bonuses are granted by the following:

Only the following apply Intelligence bonuses:
Since skill use isn't necessary to complete the game and all but {{s|Skills|Persuade}} can normally be delegated to your party anyway, leaving Intelligence at 8 is perfectly feasible (although 10 grants a Scout or Scoundrel four more skill points at character generation, and a Scout, Scoundrel or Jedi Sentinel one more per level up), and more than 14 is rarely (if ever) recommended.
 
Intelligence bonuses are only granted by the following:

Charisma is a secondary attribute for [[../Force/]] users. Otherwise, only a main character should invest points to be persuasive: once Persuade is a class skill after starting as a {{s|Classes|Scoundrel}} or becoming a {{s|Classes|Jedi}}, if maximum skill points are invested (character level + 3) then 16 Charisma (CHA +3) is the maximum ever required for 100% success of all easy, medium ''and'' hard Persuade checks (although that can be reduced by 2 for every {{s|Feats|Empathy}} feat, and reduced to 12 (level < 4) or 10 (levels 4-7) for a Scoundrel on Taris or even left at 8 for a character level > 7 Scoundrel or Jedi if 75% success of hard checks is acceptable).
