Stats

## Armor

It is used as protection for the health of the player. A character's Armor depletes when hurt by enemies or traps. If the player doesn't have the Strong Shield Buff and takes excessive damage, that excess damage will affect their health (for example, if the player has 5 armor but they take 6 damage, the Armor is depleted and the 1 extra damage will affect the health).

When the player doesn't take damage within 4 seconds, it will start regenerating by 1 every second.

* Armor Boost or  can help speed up the recharging process.
* The  condition slows down the regeneration speed while the  condition will completely neutralize it.

With the additional help of More Armor Buff, Gold Armor Buff, Fu-Xi Shield and Coconut Water, the armor capacity can be slightly extended.
Armor can also be regenerated instantly by 50% (rounded down) when depleted with the Instant Armor Buff.

The armor value affects Serenity: current armor equals energy cost, and current armor times 10 equals damage. If armor is full, the weapon will have a guaranteed crit.

The following NPCs also have Armor:

* Mercenaries in Little Commander
* Grave Guard Scarab Archon

## Critical Chance

It shows the probability of scoring a critical with any particular shot in percentage points (i. e. a stat of 5 means a 5% chance per attack). Each attack is triggered individually. For example, if the Crystal Crab's Katana triggers its critical hit effect on 4 enemies, the amount of spikes spawned will be four times the usual quantity. It is also possible for the effect to trigger on only 1 of the four too.

Each hero has a native critical chance stat which is added to the critical chance stat of whatever weapon is equipped, then added to any active Buffs regarding the stat, as well as the Book Pile, which gives the player the total chance of an attack being critical. For example, if the player has 10 base critical hit chance and the Book Pile is fully upgraded, under normal circumstances the Staff of Wizard will have a total of 95% critical hit chance.

Carrying Flying Dagger Miss No Doubter can passively boost critical hit chance by 10% for each copy the player currently holds, while the Five-Color Pen decreases chances by 30%.

When an attack is critical, it displays the word "**critical**" (replaced with **slap** in the case of Queen's Stroke) above the target, the screen shakes slightly, a sound effect plays, the damage number's size is also larger, and the color of said number becomes yellow (except when cumulative damage setting is active).

Usually, if a weapon does single-target damage, the critical hit causes twice of that amount to be dealt to an enemy. If it is an elemental attack, it will trigger the elemental effect but the damage remains the same, unless the Elemental Staff Buff is present. Attacks that do area damage (this does not include melee weapons) or can't damage enemies via solid projectiles (Super Buddy, Rocket Gun, Molotov Cocktail, Alchemist's skills) will be unable to deal critical hits, or do not trigger any additional effects. Same goes for any from continuously-firing laser guns, as well as the secondary effect of certain damaging weapons (spikes from Crystal Crab's Katana). Some weapons are never intended to deal critical hits, and usually have a negative critical hit chance to indicate that.

Critical damage scales with the weapon's current base damage. If a Willowblade has an attachment that increases the damage per hit by 2, it will do 10 damage, or 20 on critical hits. Likewise, as the Laser Buff increases the damage of laser swords, the critical hit damage is boosted by 4.

* The  condition will cause the weapon to deal 300% of their normal damage on critical hits. Elemental weapons still require the Elemental Staffs Buff for this to happen. The  condition will cause the weapon to deal 50% of their critical hit damage, unless it's an elemental weapon in which case the damage is not reduced, though the Elemental Staffs Buff won't boost their damage. If both stack, the value is at 150% of the original damage.

Similarly, additional damage points gained from the Kinetic Buff also take part in the weapon's critical boost, such that if an attack uses all 100 stacks, the weapon's base damage will benefit from the 3 extra damage and double it too, resulting in a critical hit with +6 damage.

Pets and Followers cannot cause critical chance indications unless they are given a better weapon with a critical chance greater than 0. In the case of pets, critical hits do 160% of their original damage. They are not affected by condition.

## **Damage**

It is important since it tells how much hitpoints a certain item, like weapons, will deal to the target. Upon critical hits, the damage of the projectiles shot out will double if they don't cause status effects. Explosive Weapons do not deal critical hits, and most elemental weapons will simply apply a status effect on critical hit, without double damage.

Some types of weapons can increase the damage output as they are charged, like bows. The game will show the damage value between an uncharged shot and a fully charged shot.

If a weapon has different modes, such as the Dragon Bros' Sniper Rifle, the value will only show the damage of its base mode. A few weapons come with multiple different types of bullets, like the Cluster Missile, only the damage of the main projectile will be shown.

Characters can also deal damage by using melee on a non-melee weapon. It is a hidden stat for characters.

To deal melee damage, a character has to go in close range of an enemy and tap the attack button. When a player is out of energy or does not hold a weapon, you can only melee enemies. This also applies if the weapon held cannot melee an enemy. Note that the melee is semi-auto, which means the dps is dependent on how fast you tap the attack button.

Different characters deal different amounts of melee damage.

* This affects the actual damage of Iron Claw, which is 1 more than basic value.

## Energy

It is a resource that is needed for the player to use most weapons. When the player runs out of energy, energy-consuming weapons will usually become useless. Some weapons do not require energy to fire.

**A character's energy can be restored or increased by:**

* Energy or Restoration Potions found in shops, chests, Wishing Wells, Vending Machines and Claw Fun
* Gaining energy orbs from Crystal Mines, enemies, bosses, White Chests and Jade Ring.
* More Energy Buff and Energy Orb Buff
* Mentor upgrade in The Origin

## Health

Every enemy, character or Follower has a different health value and will die once their health is depleted.

Pets also have health, but they will not be killed. Instead, pets will stop attacking and remain passive for 30 seconds before their health is restored to full.

**A character's health points can be restored or increased by:**

* Health Orb Buff and Health Buff
* Health or Restoration Potions found in shops, chests, Wishing Wells, Vending Machines, Claw Fun or from the Crate Buff

* Near a bomb dropped by the Gashapon Machine in the Living Room
* Using weapons such as Pill (chance) and Breath of Hades
* Buying from the Mysterious Trader.
* Under the condition of ,  or

## Inaccuracy

It measures how likely it is for a weapon's bullet to miss its target. For example, a Sidewinder Red with 40 inaccuracy means that the bullets have a very wide fan of bullet tracks, while a Snow Fox XL with 5 inaccuracy has a small spread fan.

For weapons that fire solid projectiles, an inaccuracy of *x* means that **each** bullet of the weapon will **randomly** shoot out from the range of +0.5*x* degrees to -0.5*x* degrees of the player's aim.

For example, if the player aims and fires an SMG M3 (20 inaccuracy) towards North (0°), each bullet may randomly shoot out from the range of 350° to 10°.

The stat can be decreased by having the Accuracy Buff. For most weapons, the inaccuracy will decrease by 10 or to 0, whichever is lower. If the latter happens, the buff will also add the remainder to critical chance. Inaccuracy can also be reduced with the Scope attachment, both of these can stack, though inaccuracy can't go under 0.

With Shotguns, though the value is not shown, having the buff does make weapons shoot out in smaller cones, making it less likely to miss.

For weapons with homing projectiles, the projectiles home with better accuracy.

## Movement Speed

Movement Speed is a hidden stat in-game.

* By default, character movement speed is 6.5 (except Trap Master at 6.0 speed and Costume Prince at 7.0).
* The fully upgraded Plant in the Living Room boosts speed by +1.
* Trekking Pole increases speed by +3.75, roughly 50% for most characters with Plant's buff.
* Most Armor Mounts reduce speed by 20%.
* Most Monster Mounts increase speed by 20%.
* Statue of the Thief increases speed by +2.5.
