Welcome to our “Elden Ring: Three Stats to Improve Your Build” guide. For new players, Elden Ring’s stats can be a bit confusing. So here’s a breakdown of how Elden Ring handles these three stats.

Vigor

The vigor characteristic determines the health (HP) of a character. The higher your red bar, the higher this stat. It also buffs your fire and poison defenses, making it an important stat to improve on, regardless of your build. Remember that while stamina improves your health, it does not increase your physical defense, that’s what the Stamina stat does. Therefore, if you’re creating a character that will take a lot of damage, it’s a good idea to level both. Think of Stamina as the level of health you carry, and Stamina as the effectiveness of that health.

Spirit

This is the property that controls your focal points, or FPs. When you perform sorceries, chants, or other FP-related talents, it depletes the blue bar under your health. Strengthening Focus-related resistances is also facilitated by increasing this stat. Not only will this allow you to cast additional spells, but it will also make you more resistant to certain types of damage. Remember that this stat only affects the number of Focus Points you have, not the effectiveness of your sorceries, incantations, or talents.

Endurance

The stamina characteristic determines your stamina and physical defense. This stat can be upgraded to make you stronger and more agile. In Elden Ring, stamina is crucial as it allows you to perform better in battle before you need to rest and regenerate. If you have enough stamina to move or dodge hits, it can also protect your life. Remember that being hit by enemies depletes your stamina, so having enough to quickly flee combat can be crucial to your survival.
