Stats define your character's strengths and weaknesses and can be boosted with buffs in Super Mario RPG Remake! Read on to learn what each stat does, what kind of buffs there are, and how it affects your characters in our guide!
List of Contents
Stat | Description |
---|---|
HP | Character's Hit Points |
Speed | Determines Character's action order |
Attack | Determines Physical damage dealt by characters |
Defense | Reduces incoming Physical Damage |
Magic Attack | Determines damage dealt and healing amount when using Magic |
Magic Defense | Reduces incoming damage from Magic |
In Super Mario RPG, there are 6 Stats that characters have, each affecting their own playstyle. These are HP, Attack, Defense, Magical Attack, and Magical Defense.
Each character in Super Mario RPG have unique base stats, so you may notice that some characters have higher points in a certain stat than others, despite being on the same level.
List of Characters and Best Builds
Each time a character levels up in Super Mario RPG, their stats increase, and gain an additional option to level up one of three choices that increase your characters' stats further.
Keep in mind that each level gives a higher bonus than normal to one of the three choices, giving the option to increase the associated stats by more than the usual amount if the player chooses that bonus.
Stat Bonus | Description |
---|---|
Physical | Increases Attack and Defense |
HP | Increases Character's Hit Points |
Magic | Increases Magic Attack and Magic Defense |
Each time your character gains a level, you can choose to level up either Physical, HP, or Magic.
Each character has their own strengths and benefit from having Stat Bonuses allotted into a specific stat, so while it is ultimately your decision how to build your characters, we recommend following our Character Builds to get an idea on what each character should specialize in!
Attack and Defense Boosts are buffs that increases damage dealt (Atk and M. Atk stat) and reduces damage received (Def and M. Def stat), respectively. These buffs can be applied by using Geno Boost or accesories like Quartz Charm and items like Yoshi-ade.
All Sources of Attack and Defense Boosts | ||
---|---|---|
Source | Type | Boost |
Geno Boost | Move | Atk/Def |
Quartz Charm | Accessory | Atk/Def |
Troopa Medal | Accessory | Atk |
Ghost Medal | Accessory | Def |
Energizer | Item | Atk |
Party Energizer | Item | Atk |
Bracer | Item | Def |
Party Bracer | Item | Def |
Yoshi-ade | Item | Atk/Def |
Attack Boosts and Defense Boosts each count as a single buff, which means a target can only have one stage of each boost at a time.
Boosts of the same type won't stack, even if they are from different sources (e.g. using Energizer on a character already wearing a Troopa Medal), unless the character falls in battle—therefore losing the buff—or if the boosts get purged by moves like Shredder.
Having an Elemental Resistance buff halves the damage the character received from Elemental attacks like Fire, Ice, and Lightning types. This buff can be obtained by wearing the Nurture Ring and Booster's Charm.
Despite both reducing damage received, a character wearing either Nurture Ring or Booster's Charm can still be buffed with Defense Boost. This will reduce elemental damage taken by 75%.
