What does every stat do?

[Melk Tert]

It seems like there are various "proc" effects (one of them literally called proc), but I actually don't know what the difference is between all these. Do they deal different types of damage? Amounts of damage? I would guess supersmite is somehow better than smite... is it because it happens more frequently or because it hurts more? What do the buff effects do? I have no clue what blessing is or what exactly berserk does (berserk seems like at least part of it is a movespeed increase?)

And, what about the base stats? Is the function of base stats (int, dex, str, spi) just to increase the possibility of the other "effect stats"? What does it mean when an item that is not a weapon has *str or something like that? Does it mean that my damage just naturally scales more with str as a result? I know on a weapon if I had *str it seems to mean that when i level up, i gain that stat. but it also seems like maybe my damage scales with that stat?

There's a lot going on in this game that I dont understand literally at all because none of it is told to us. Maybe that's intentional, but it sure would be nice to know what i'm doing.

Diffrent wepons scale off of the diffrent base stats (dex, int, str, spi) it tells you on the weapon what stats it uses, so if you have a high dex and you use a dex weapon, that weapon will deal more damage, however if you have a high dex and were to use a str weapon, it wouldent do nearly as much damage. Things like smite are just bonus damage affects and idk what the stuff like berserk is, hope that helps a little tho

I mean, you basically told me what I already knew lol. I want to know what smite does specifically and what the difference between smite and supersmite is. and what the difference between smite and "surprise!" is in terms of damage and effect. etc etc. There's a lot going on and i know nothing and therefore don't know how to build my character.

For example: Does smite deal 120% weapon damage? Does it deal 120% weapon damage + a spirit scaling effect? How does it compare with "Proc"? What's the difference? Is there any? Or is it purely just a different version of the same effect (IE Proc scales with int).

Honestly i'm sure some of this has changed up a bit for one there isn't a Bow in the game now. But these are the stats for bit Dungeon 2. But it should it least give you a basic idea of how stats work and what they might do.


Strength - Cleave

Dexterity - Critical Hit

Intelligence - Proc

Spirit - Smite

Constitution - adds 5 Health and 10 Stamina

Deathstrike - Deal 10x damage

Cleave - Deal 2x Damage in a small radius

Super Cleave - Deal 4x Damage in a small radius

Smite - Deal x2 Damage. Deals x3.5 Damage ??above an HP threshold??

Super Smite - Deal x? Damage.

Chop – Chance to take off 25% of total life in one hit.
