Thanks, one last question, how are the stats of a character in SAO determined?
I did a bit of reading about the show/LN before and got the impression a player's own physical abilities factor into what sort of stats and skills their in-game character got. |

Naming Skills from the top of my head: 1 Handed Straight Sword Curved Sword Maces Lances Dagger Bow Shield Polearms Axes Throwing Weapon Katana Rapier 2 Hander Blade Unarmed Fighting Battle Continuation (Basically a hp regen. it's slow, but better than nothing. Super high lvl skill. Acquire by taking a LOT of damage throughout your gameplay) Hiding Detection Trap Removal Blacksmithing Sewing Fishing Cooking Appraisal and that's the one I can remember without thinking too hard. You level up these skill by doing them. Using a sword skill or generally attacking an enemy with a weapon will lvl up that weapon skill level. Some of the skills have hidden parameters to be unlocked. For example, Katana is an offset from curved sword. But the thing is, it's a bit random(?) as not everyone who leveled their Curved Sword will unlock Katana. That is called an extra skill. Kirito mentioned only about 10 people unlocked Katana for their skill set. There's also something called an unique skill... but that's a bit too early to discuss atm. So by levelling these skills, and putting stats points in the right status, you build your own character. Either as Dps or Tank or in between. Kirito is a full blown DPS by the way. I think his build is mostly str and a generous dex also and enough in const. Last edited by maelstormCaT; 2012-07-09 at 06:01. |

What other skills would contribute to the production of HP recovery items? I would assume that HP recovery items are in very high demand.
Do skillers appear in SAO too? (I did speculate alot about how non-beta players may have been better off starting off with skilling in the first week, in the first episode thread) It'd also suggest that those specializing in bows may be better off investing in dexterity (running from monsters to gain distance), whatever stats improve evasion and bow damage, enough in Constitution not to die from hypothetical range monsters, etc. What's Asuna's build? I presume cooking is one of the stats she invested much in, judging by the Op. Thanks alot. |

There are no bows in SAO mentioned in the series, dex is use to increase speed of movement and agility whilst str increase. Well strength. The only healing skill known is "Battle Healing" achieved by taking damage |
