1. Combat buffs (permanent and temporary)

  • Active abilities for crafting weapons: defense with a sword and shield and smashing with a war hammer.
  • Effects are less damage, more damage, and no control.
  • Passive weapon abilities: life restoration after a heavy hit and damage buildup after light hits.


2. Crafting buffs (making weapons, armor, and furniture)

  • Production luck increases the chance of obtaining rare items when crafting.
  • Examples of tool bonuses are: +10% faster gathering and +7% more luck when gathering.


3. Gathering buffs (drop rate & efficiency)

  • Gathering luck increases the chance of finding rare materials.
  • The collection speed is the rate at which something is collected.
  • Fast resource gathering is good for effective leveling.


4. Food buffs (universal)

  • Combat food: more damage and healing. Grilled beef gives more intelligence and constantly heals blood.
  • Food production: higher success rates at the artisan feast. Gathering food brings luck and speed. Honey and wild boar steak bring luck when skinning.
  • Attribute food: It increases the values. For example, the bear stew gives +20 strength.
