Character Attributes & Skills

In Age of Conan, as with traditional role playing games, characters gain attribute & skill points as they level.  These points can be applied by players to improve upon character attributes & skills over time - helping to make the character unique to the player's style.

Character Attibutes

Attributes are the base characteristics like dexterity, wisdom and constitution that shape your characters basic elements like health, mana pool, combat strength and more.  By investing Attribute points into attributes most in line with your characters class & play style, your character can become a stronger soldier, more agile rogue, more effective healer or more devastating caster.

As an example, players preferring extra melee damage output may invest some attribute points into their charaters Strength attribute, while putting additional attribute points into Constitution would gain the character extra hitpoints.

Character Skills

Skills are the basic abilities of the character like climbing, hiding, and caster concentration which can be improved over time.  By investing points into the Skills most in line with your characters class & play style, your character can become more adept at hiding/sneaking, or may be able to climb objects and reach areas which other characters may not.

As an example a Guardian player who generally 'tanks' may wish to invest skill points into improving their 'Taunt' skill for improved aggro keeping, while an Assassin character who preffers devastating surprise attacks may wish to focus on putting their skill points into hiding for improved stealth.
