Stats

Stats are the measurable parameters of players, NPCs, enemies and bosses.
They affect damage output, incoming damage reduction, stamina, and several other key attributes.

Base stats (excluding Souls and Humanity) are determined by the player's starting class, and are increased by leveling up.
Derived stats (HP, Stamina, defences, resistances, etc.) are affected by attribute levels, armor, and rings. 
Offensive stats are based on weapons, catalysts, and shields, as well as relevant attribute levels.
