Overview

Combat Statistics determine how a ship deals damage, survives, moves and carries resources. The main values are Attack, Health, CPU, Precision, Dodge, Critical, Propulsion, Stock, Execution, Range, Ammunition Capacity and Player Level. Shield absorption is part of total durability but remains separate from Health.

Using the Statistics

Priorities depend on the ship and equipment. Attack benefits direct-damage builds; Health and absorption improve durability; CPU is central to many support tools; Stock matters for resource routes. A stat does nothing for an item that does not use it, so check the relevant Weapon or Shield description.

How an Attack Is Resolved

The server first validates the action, target, map, range, ammunition and cooldown. Attacks that can miss compare Precision with Dodge. Critical is rolled only for items that allow it. The result then passes through the item's scaling, shields, absorption, piercing and other effects before Health is removed.

Step	What is checked
Use	Target, map, range, ammunition, cooldown, Stun and Silence.
Hit	Precision against Dodge, unless the attack cannot miss.
Critical	Critical chance, only when the item supports critical hits.
Scaling	Attack, CPU or the item's own fixed, percentage or target-based values.
Defence	Absorption, immunity and item-specific protection.
After-effects	Combat states, life steal, reflection, healing, loot and cooldowns.
