Attributes

Players have the opportunity to invest into eight distinct Attributes, each serving a crucial role in shaping their playstyle. Each trait governs a wide array of effects, determining how Lightkeepers interact with the world and approach different challenges.
There are eight different Attributes that can be invested into. Players gain one point per XP Level to spend as they see fit. This allows players to increase their character's base stats by spending points on whichever they choose. Gear also influences Attributes as well. Items have bonuses to particular stats which change as the quality of gear improves. Some Consumables can affect Attributes temporarily or even permanently. Certain Quests and challenges specifically reward Attribute points as well.
To balance Attributes and make it more difficult to become overpowered by allocating too many points into one area, Attribute allocations are capped at a set amount each as well as having diminishing returns. The maximum amount of points that can be invested for each Attribute is 50 for a total possible of 400.
