Epic Seven: Hero Base Stats and % Main Stats vs. Flat Main Stats

If you’ve got basic math knowledge, then you’ll probably understand that percentages of numbers scale the larger the number is. At first glance it might seem like a good idea to go for a % main stat over a flat main stat at higher levels.

For some heroes % main stats on gear may not be the best choice. Some heroes, especially those with low base stats, can’t take advantage of certain % main stats on gear, and should be equipped with a flat main stat instead.

What are the base stats of heroes?

To understand why % stats aren’t always the best choice, you’ll need to know the base stats of your Level 60 heroes without any gear equipped. You can see that some heroes have a base stat that is considerably lower than other heroes in a different categories. Typically, tank classes like Warriors and Knights have higher HP than other classes. Unusually though, Soul Weavers have a high Defense stat with the top ten Defense stat heroes being 60% Soul Weavers.

As an aside, you may be wondering which hero has the highest base stat in each stat category. Here they are:

  • Gunther has the highest Attack stat at 1426.
  • Dark Corvus, Ken, and Ravi are tied for the highest HP stat at 7323.
  • Kayron has the highest Speed stat at 129.
  • Ruele of Light has the highest Defense stat at 798.
  • Auxiliary Lots, Hurado, and Assassin Cidd are tied for the highest Critical Rate at 35%.
  • Sigret and Yufine are tied for the highest Critical Damage at 165%.
  • Several heroes have the highest Effectiveness stat of 30%.
  • Finally, Angelic Montmorancy has the highest Effect Resist stat at 40%.

Here is a chart with all the heroes’ base stats at Level 60:

What is the difference between a flat main stat and % main stat?

The % stats that are actually notable are Attack, Defense, and HP. The other stats that are actual percentages like Crit. Rate and Crit. Hit Chance just add atop the % itself. Below is a chart showing comparing heroes with Level 85 gear, that is +15, with a % main stat.

The stats highlighted red mean that % stats is not the best for the specific hero. You can see the differences in the next two columns, measuring the margin of how much you’re losing or gaining if you use a % main stat.

Should I use a % main stat or a flat main stat?

Most times, when you’re upgrading your gear you’ll be praying for good substats. A main stat is one of the few things that we can control, at least for the helmets, armor, and weapons. To successfully create good gear, you’ll need to understand % stats vs. flat stats for sure.

Should you keep upgrading that flat HP main stat boots that you’ve crafted that you’ll be equipping to a Warrior? Probably not. Does it have great substats? Maybe. You’ll have to do some math yourself to figure that out. Hopefully, this post has given you a way forward to finding the perfect gear for your heroes!

Games are a longtime passion of mine starting from childhood when my mother bought me my very own Gameboy Color. I’ve been gaming ever since. I’m a self-proclaimed jack of all trades, with what I consider a wide skill set ranging from programming to photography. As the saying goes, a master of none is oftentimes better than a master of one.
