Stats Guide

In PvE, Resilience is ALWAYS the most important Stat - get this to 100, even if it means forsaking every other Stat.

• The difference in survivability between the general baseline of 30 points in Resilience and 100 points is 47%. Things that outright one-shot a 30 Resilience Guardian only put one with 100 just under half health.
  • In practice, this comes up extremely often!

• Every somewhat serious PvE Build Guide across the internet is going to recommend prioritizing Resilience before any other Stat. Maxroll included.

• Worried about your Ability uptime because of your investment in Resilience? Don't be! There's tons of different ways to quickly regenerate your Abilities outside of their associated Stats, from Weapon Perks to Armor Mods, all the way to Subclass Buffs and Subclass Pickups!
  • Comparatively, supplementing the power of Resilience is much harder and you'd want to stack those effects together anyway.

• Titans also get to take advantage of its secondary feature, making your Barricades and Thruster recharge faster!

In PvE, Recovery serves to keep you alive amidst a firefight, in addition to being tied to Warlock's Class Ability.

• Recovery's primary feature is empowering your ability to naturally recover health and shields by going a prolonged period without taking damage. The difference between the general baseline of 30 Stat points and 100 is 2.4 seconds, a split between reducing the delay and increasing recovery speed.
  • Warlocks take advantage of its secondary feature, making your Rifts and Phoenix Dive recharge faster. Warlocks with a Class Ability centric build should generally invest in Recovery after Resilience.

• Recovery is a back-loaded Stat, meaning the bulk of its benefits come from having 70 or more points in it.
  • Specifically, the bonus you get going from 90 to 100 points is equivalent to the bonuses you'd get going from 30 to 60 points.

• Having a high Recovery Stat only does something if you often go a prolonged period without taking damage, such as taking cover or dealing damage from safe distances. If your playstyle or build requires you to be in the middle of the firefight, you should not invest in Recovery.

• Recovery isn't the only way to regenerate your health and shields. Almost every Subclass includes Aspects and Fragments that help you stay alive. There's also Armor Mods and Weapon Perks that get the job done.

For Titans and Warlocks in PvE, Mobility is next to worthless. Do not invest into this.

• Mobility is a PvP Stat and the Hunter Class Ability Stat. If you are not a Hunter, Mobility won't help you kill things or survive.
  • If you are a Hunter, click or tap the next tab for information specific to your Class.

• Mobility's initial jump height bonus may be helpful for jumping puzzles. If you're struggling on one, swap your Armor Mods out for Mobility Mods to help you complete the puzzle. Just don't forget to change your Armor Mods back to what they were when you're done!

Discipline and Strength decrease your passive Grenade Ability and Melee Ability cooldown rate, respectively. They are completely identical in how they do this.

• Discipline and Strength work by giving you a passive Ability cooldown bonus. Specifically, having 30 points in these Stats is considered the baseline, and having 100 points gives you a 100% increased cooldown recovery bonus, halving the base cooldown.
  • Not multiplier - increased. The distinction is very important since many Aspects, Fragments, and Exotic Armor Pieces do the same thing, and they stack additively - not multiplicatively.
    • If your Build hypothetically had 100% uptime on Whisper of Shards - which grants a 500% increased cooldown recovery bonus - having 100 Discipline wouldn't do as much!

• Discipline, Strength, and all other Stats for that matter have nothing to do with "chunky" Ability regeneration sources which recharge a percentage of your Ability for meeting a certain condition.
  • Devour, for example, gives you Grenade Ability energy every time you kill something and is wholly detached from Discipline.

• These are back-loaded Stats, meaning the bulk of its benefits come from having 80 or more points in them.
  • Specifically, the bonus you get going from 80 to 90 points is equivalent to the bonuses you'd get going from 30 to 50 points.

Intellect dictates how fast your Super Ability passively recharges.

• This Stat is primarily useful for PvP, since in PvE most Super Ability generation comes through actively dealing damage, killing combatants, and picking up Orbs of Power.
  • Compared to active Super Ability generation, investing into Intellect does very little to help you get your Super back. In most cases, investing into Intellect is a bad idea.

• Builds that either do not at all care for their Melee and Grenade Abilities and thus do not need Discipline and Strength, or those that have extremely high uptime on those abilities without their associated Stats can invest into Intellect without it being a strictly bad idea.

• This is a front-loaded Stat, meaning the bulk of its benefits come from having between 30 to 70 points in them.
  • Specifically, the bonus you get going from 30 to 40 points is equivalent to the bonuses you'd get going from 70 to 100 points.
