[3.1] Abbreviations

Confused by abbreviations in Icarus? This guide breaks down what Condition, Class, LV, EX, HP, MP, AP, DP, IT, SP, PW, SW, MA, and MD mean so you can master your character's stats.

Hey there! So you're diving into Icarus and you've probably noticed a bunch of abbreviations popping up, especially when you right-click in the village to open up menus like the Items Menu. Don't sweat it! These abbreviations are just shorthand for various stats and conditions your character can have. Let's break them down so you know exactly what everything means.

Think of these as the building blocks for your character's performance. Understanding them will help you manage your gear, track your progress, and make sure your character is ready for whatever Icarus throws at you.

Understanding Character Stats and Conditions

When you're looking at your character's status, you'll see a few key things. The most important is Condition. If your character's Condition hits 0 HP, they're basically knocked out and can't fight. The only way to get them back in the action is by using the item Ajell. So, keep an eye on that HP!

Then you have your character's Class, which is basically their occupation or role. Alongside that, you'll see:

• LV: This is your character's Level. Higher levels usually mean better stats and access to more abilities.
• EX: This stands for Experience. It's the total experience your character has accumulated so far.
• HP: Hit Points. This is your character's physical power or health. When it hits zero, you're in trouble!
• MP: Magic Power. This determines how effective your magical abilities are.
• AP: Assault Power. This likely refers to your character's physical attack strength.
• DP: Defense Power. This is how well your character can withstand physical attacks.
• IT: This could stand for Intelligence or Insight, affecting mental capabilities or perhaps magic resistance.
• SP: Speed. This influences how quickly your character can act in combat or on the map.
• PW: Physical Force. Similar to AP, this might be a raw measure of physical strength.
• SW: Strength. Another stat related to physical prowess, possibly affecting damage or carrying capacity.
• MA: Magic Assault. This indicates the power of your character's magical attacks.
• MD: Magic Defense. This is how well your character resists magical attacks.

These abbreviations might show up in other menus and shops too, so getting a handle on them now will make navigating the rest of Icarus much smoother. Keep these in mind as you equip new gear or level up – they're key to optimizing your character!
