How do we control what stat increases occur while leveling

[sandytaxman]

I am a hunter. I want to add some points to other stats other than dex to use some armor that I found. When leveling, is there a way to increase the stats and increase them to my choosing?

Yes, by placing passive points in places where you can select attributes for example.

Ok so the only way to accomplish this is by getting some stat passive points or items. I can't do anything on my character sheet stats as I level?

Take the required attributes in the tree.
Use clothes, especially rings that have attributes (any).
Depending on what attributes the clothes give you, change the attributes in the tree.
Do NOT store unnecessary passive skills in the skill bar
Pay attention to items that lower the requirements for attributes.
Do not forget to build gems that you put in the tree.
In extreme cases, BELOW the level of the skill on one lower that it would require fewer attributes (you need to knock out a lower level gem, or during the passage do not upgrade gems and write new ones that you would have several levels of the same skill).
Hate the developers, it helps.

Your character sheet IS the passive tree. That's how the game works.

Rejoice. They added attribute runes.
