There are six primary attributes in Avowed:

  • Might: Boosts physical and spiritual strength, increasing damage output from all sources and enhancing carry capacity. High Might unlocks unique dialogue options, potentially intimidating foes or avoiding combat.
  • Constitution: Improves overall health and stamina, increasing maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding. It also unlocks certain dialogue options.
  • Dexterity: Increases attack and action speeds for weapons, abilities, item use, and parkour, improving overall mobility and reload speed.
  • Perception: Enhances critical hit chance and maximum range for ranged weapons (bows, wands, guns). It offers additional, albeit often minor, dialogue options.
  • Intellect: Increases maximum essence and resistance to fire, shock, and frost damage. Crucial for spellcasters but also beneficial for many abilities. Unlocks additional dialogue options.
  • Resolve: Improves maximum stamina and Second Wind effectiveness. Synergizes well with heavy weapons and tank builds. Unlocks dialogue options similar to Constitution.

Avowed Attribute Ranking: From Least to Most Valuable

While each attribute serves a purpose, some offer broader benefits. Here's a ranking to guide your attribute point allocation:

6. Perception

Perception's niche benefits (critical hit chance and ranged weapon range) are situationally effective. While useful against specific enemy types, its impact is often limited by the prevalence of close-quarters combat. Investing minimally, with potential respeccing for certain encounters, is recommended.

5. Resolve

Increased stamina is beneficial, but readily obtainable through unique armor. Second Wind's improvement is valuable, but prioritizing health and mobility to avoid damage is often more effective.

4. Intellect

Intellect boosts maximum essence and elemental resistance. Elemental resistance is crucial for survival, and even non-magic users benefit from increased essence for various abilities.

3. Dexterity

A versatile attribute improving attack and action speeds, enhancing mobility and DPS. A worthwhile investment for all builds.

2. Constitution

Constitution directly increases maximum health and resistance to poison and bleeding—two significant threats in Avowed. Its impact on survivability is substantial.

1. Might

Might is the most impactful attribute, offering increased damage output across all weapons and significantly improving carry capacity. The latter is invaluable for loot management and efficient gameplay.

This ranking provides a framework for building your Avowed character. Remember to adjust based on your preferred playstyle and build.
