11 Attributes are the character stats that the player invests in as they level up in Echoes of Aincrad. Each new level grants a pool of growth points that the player allocates to a chosen attribute, and the resulting numbers feed directly into combat performance, resource pools, and build identity.

33 Where Growth Points Come From
44  
55 Every time the player gains a new level, they receive growth points to spend at their own discretion. The publisher framing for the system is the classic action-RPG formula: extending stamina, strength, dexterity, and other axes to fit a chosen playstyle. The investment is a meaningful choice rather than an automatic stat-block bump, which is why the getting-started guide treats the first allocation as part of the new-player checklist.

1010 The publisher has named a portion of the attribute roster outright. The full list will be visible in-game from the level-up menu; the breakdown below is what has been described in marketing and developer commentary so far.

1212 AttributeWhat It DoesStaminaRaises the size of the stamina bar that gates attacks, dodges, and sprints. A larger pool lets the player hold a combo or evade chain longer before having to back off and recover.StrengthImproves outgoing damage on weight-based weapons and on heavy-attack swings. Pairs naturally with weapon types like the greatsword, battleaxe, and mace.DexterityIncreases sword-skill damage and is the primary scaling stat for skill-heavy builds. Detail on how it interacts with the sword skills loop lives on that page.MindRaises the SP pool that sword skills draw from, letting the player fire off more activations between potion stops or rest. Important for any build that leans on skill activations rather than basic combos.
1313 Early marketing named stamina, strength, and dexterity as example axes. The playable demo has since confirmed the full roster of seven attributes: Strength, Dexterity, Agility, Intelligence, Vitality, Endurance, and Mind. Stamina is not itself one of the seven. The size of the Stamina bar is governed by the Endurance attribute, and the SP pool by Mind.

1515 How Investment Shapes a Build
1616  
1717 Attributes are not the only knob the player turns. They sit alongside the player's chosen weapon types, their loadout of sword skills, their special skills, and the partner they bring along through the Switch System. Attributes tie all of those together: a high-stamina, high-strength build wants different sword skills and different partner support than a high-mind, high-dexterity caster of activations.
1818  
1919 The single most important thing to remember when first allocating points is that the system is not designed to punish niche builds. The methodical pace of the combat system means a player who leans hard into one axis can still close fights, as long as their playstyle and skill loadout match the build's strengths.

2424 Coverage of the April 2026 reveal noted that growth-point allocation can be respec'd by paying an in-game currency cost. The exact Col cost has not been published. The implication is that early-game commitments are not permanent: a build that turns out not to fit can be rolled back, although the price is intended to discourage churning the stat sheet between every fight.

3030 Growth Points and the Seven Attributes
3131  
3232 Leveling up earns Growth Points that the player invests at the Inn to raise individual attributes. The demo exposes seven of them: Strength, Dexterity, Agility, Intelligence, Vitality, Endurance, and Mind. Each weapon type scales off different attributes, so a build is shaped by which of the seven you pour Growth Points into.

3535 Attribute growth works alongside the separate Cardinal Rank progression, which gates what merchants and the Smithy will sell and scales how tough monsters become and what they drop.
