The higher your level, the more attribute points you will have and as you go further with leveling up, the number of attribute points gained also increases.

Equipment Attributes

Aside from the attributes that you can assign when you level up, there are equipment attributes that are added from the stats of your equipment.

These attributes will add to your total attribute points, allowing you to further increase points in a single attribute based on which one the stat gives.

Gear such as weapons, armor, and accessories may all have different attribute bonuses, either having a single attribute or multiple ones.

Reset Attributes

There is no need to worry if you feel like your current attributes are not suiting your preference, you can always reset your attributes.

Opening the character menu and selecting attributes will show your current attributes along with a respec button at the bottom.

Attribute Respec will reset your attributes at the cost of coins and can be used unlimited times, so you can always change your attributes whenever you decide to.

Verdict
