To be honest, starting a game like Hunters can be hard at first. There’s loot to get, skills to up, places to beat… and then boom, you get stuck: Which stats do you pick? What’s Perception, and why is it even there?
I’ve been in that spot too—adding points to the wrong stat, asking why my guy is all hit but no aim. So, to save you that trouble, here is a fast, no-nonsense run-down of what each Hunter stat does, and how to pick the right ones for your build.
Strength (STR) — The Muscle
If you like swinging swords, charging into battle, and watching your enemies explode into pixels, then Strength is your jam. It cranks up your melee damage, especially useful in close-range brawls.
Think of STR as the classic “bash now, ask later” stat.
Go heavy on this if your weapon of choice is a sword or anything that gets up close and personal.
Vitality (VIT) — The Tank Factor
Nobody likes dying in two hits. That’s where Vitality comes in. It boosts your max HP, making you tougher and tankier in fights. This one pairs perfectly with Strength for a warrior-style build that’s hard to take down.
If your playstyle is “stand my ground and take the hits,” this is essential.
Intellect (INT) — The Spellcaster’s Secret Weapon
Rocking a staff? Love throwing magic around like it’s confetti? Intellect is your best friend. The more you have, the more powerful your spells and magic-based weapons become.
Every mage needs brainpower. This stat brings the fireballs.
Perception (PER) — Kinda… Meh?
Look, Perception isn’t useless, but it’s definitely more of a niche pick. It’s tied to ranged and magic precision, but honestly? You probably won’t miss it much early on. Upgrade it later if your build really needs it.
Agility (AGI) — Dodge Like a Pro
Agility is your mobility stat. More AGI = faster movement, better dodging, and a smoother time in combat. It’s not mandatory, but it’s great if you like dancing around your enemies instead of taking hits head-on.
Agility pairs nicely with Strength and Vitality, especially if you like a fast, punchy playstyle.
So, How Do You Get Ability Points?
Good news—you earn Ability Points naturally just by leveling up. Dive into dungeons, complete quests, and keep rolling for better gear and skills. But here’s the catch: you don’t get infinite points, so don’t waste them. Be smart. Build around your weapon and playstyle, not just what looks cool on paper.
Final Thoughts (And a Quick Ask)
There’s no one right way to make your Hunter. The top stat for you hinges on how you like to play. Do you rush in wild? Or hang back and zip out lightning bolts like an old-time sharpshooter? You pick—but now you know how to build with skill.
