All Stats Explained

Check your stats here

In Xenoblade Chronicles 3, each of your party members has varied stats that, alongside their arts, enable them to fill a specific role within a battle. For example, Noah's initial class is Swordfighter which is known for its powerful physical attacks, meaning that Noah will start with a high Attack Stat.

You can check your stats whenever you decide to change your character's Arts, equipment, or classes. The stats for each character will appear in the lower-left corner.
