Statistics:
The four core or primary statistics are as follows.

Strength affects your damage, hit%, and max weight

Agility affects your evasion, hit%, and combat speed

Vitality affects your hit point growth and resist

Intellect affects your magic power and resist

The derived or secondary statistics are as follows.

Hit Points represents how much pain you can take

Hit % how easy it is to hit a target with an attack

# Hits how many times you can strike in combat

Damage how much damage you can do per attack

Resist how well you can resist magical attacks

Evade how easy it is to dodge an opponent's attack

Absorb how much your armor will reduce incoming attack by

Weight how much your equipped load weighs

Speed how quickly you can act in battle

At level 1, you divide 40 points between the four core statistics, and 30 points between Hit % and Resist. Note that Hit % is obviously of great benefit to fighters, but if you're not going to put any points into your Intellect (as fighters would tend to do) you might want to give yourself a good start in the Resist department. After you've done so, make a note of your maximum hit points for level 1. It's equal to [30 + Vitality].

At each level, you have the privledge of distributing two (2) points among the core statistics. Hit Points, Hit %, and Resist will increase as follows:

Hit Points 8 + [Vitality / 2]

Hit % 1 + 1 for each point you placed in Strength or Agility for that level

Resist 1 + 1 for each point you placed in Vitality or Intellect for that level

And at any point, the other derived stats have values as follows:

# Hits 1 + [Hit % / 32]

Damage [Strength / 2] + Weapon Power

Evade 20 + Agility - Armor Weight

Absorb sum of all equipped gear's Absorb

Weight sum of all equipped gear's Weight

Speed Agility [+ passive bonus)

The values for # Hits and Damage are a little different for people fighting barehanded.

# Hits 2 + [Hit % / 16]

Damage [Strength / 4] [+ passive bonus]
