Substats
Aside from Stats, several Substats were also drastically changed. Most of these define the main difference between Pre-Renewal and Renewal Mechanics.
| ATK
|
MATK
|
- In Renewal, ATK is split into StatusATK and WeaponATK.
- Both contribute to final damage; StatusATK is doubled.
- Only WeaponATK is affected by racial/size/elemental bonuses (e.g., Hydra, Skel Worker).
- High-level weapons with better ATK/refines are preferred over old 4-slot racials.
|
- MATK is also split into StatusMATK and WeaponMATK.
- Many weapons now have flat MATK values (e.g., 280 from Staff of Destruction).
- WeaponMATK contributes more to final damage due to variance scaling with weapon level.
|
| DEF/MDEF
|
Cast Time
|
- DEF and MDEF are reworked:
HardDEF/MDEF is no longer capped at 100.
Its effectiveness scales exponentially.
200 HardDEF = ~25% reduction
400 HardDEF = ~40% reduction
- Many armors now have higher DEF/MDEF values.
|
- Cast Time is now split into:
Fixed Cast Time – not affected by stats; reduced only via gear or skills.
Variable Cast Time – reduced by DEX and INT.
- Formula: (DEX × 2 + INT) = 530 to eliminate Variable Cast.
- Some skills now have non-removable fixed cast times (e.g., Acid Demo, Asura).
|
| SoftDEF/MDEF
|
Critical
|
- Based mostly on VIT (SoftDEF) and INT (SoftMDEF).
- Applies a flat damage reduction after HardDEF/MDEF.
- Minimal change from Pre-Renewal mechanics.
|
- Critical hits ignore FLEE, but no longer ignore DEF.
- Base crit damage is 140%, increased with C.RATE.
- With gear/cards, crits can reach or exceed 200% damage.

Trait Stats (Post-200)
From level 200+, stat points go to new Trait Stats. These do not replace core stats, but offer new functionality. Each point costs 1, and job level increases improve them further.

Trait Bonuses
- P.ATK (Power ATK): Boosts final physical damage %
- S.MATK (Spell MATK): Boosts final magical damage %
- RES (Resist): Reduces incoming physical damage % (up to 50% pen limit)
- MRES (Magic Resist): Reduces incoming magical damage % (up to 50% pen limit)
- H.PLUS (Heal Plus): Increases healing done %
- C.RATE (Crit Rate): Boosts crit damage %
* Base Crit Damage = 140%
* +1 C.RATE = +1% Crit Damage (e.g., 10 C.RATE = 150% Crit Damage)
