Rage
what is rage and how is it used?
What is Rage?
Rage is the combat stress that your rings capture and store
It is the red bar that can be found in the lower right hand of your screen
How is Rage used?
Building up~
Before you can use Rage, you have to build it up. To do this, simply use your rage. The more you use your rings, the more the bar will start to fill up.
Using~
Once it starts to grow, you can use it by charging up your rings and then releasing to attack. In other words, hold down the key/click and hold the ring and wait for the bar to slowly light up. The three sections of the bar represent the type of attack. There is Rank 1 (normal), Rank 2, Rank 3, and Rank 4. This is not your Charge Level.
Charge Level
What is Charge Level?
Charge Level
What~
-a Charge Level is basically the overall level of your ring
Improving a Charge Level~
-to improve a ring's Charge Level you need to add charge orbs to it while in the Null Chamber
-charge orbs are obtained from the animated, once defeated, and from completing tasks
Overall Charge Level~
-the overall charge level is your total Charge on all your rings/fingers
G'hi
What is G'hi?
What is G'hi Energy?
"G'hi is the very essence of life force. The theory is that the Animated exist because there has been an excess amount of this life force introduced to our world, by some unknown means."
"...every living being on Gaia has some reserve of this G'hi energy within them and that all living things are connected in our world. The rings we use in battle are powered by this force..."
How is G'hi used?
Boosts~
-once G'hi energy is absorbed, it stores up and gives the character a G'hi Boost
-these boosts increase many of the player's abilities
Absorbing~
-using rings more and more stores up G'hi energy that can power the G'hi Boosts
-interacting with other players can also help

~from the Null Chamber you can only transport to a Null Crystal that you have touched, and nowhere else

Character Statistics
the various stats that describe you characters abilities
"Accuracy: Basically, how accurate are your attacks?"
"Dodge: Can you avoid incoming attacks? This stat defines that ability."
"Willpower: Are you a victim of "crowd control" abilities (like sleep or root)? If so, this is the stat that helps you resist those attacks."
"Speed: Basically, this is how fast you move."
"Weight: Increased weight helps you resist knockback."
"Health: If this goes to zero...then you're Dazed. So keep this up nice and high."
"Health Regeneration: This is how fast you recover health when Kneeling."
"Stamina Regeneration: If you stand still (not doing anything), you'll slowly regain Stamina. Kneeling regains it even more quickly."
"When you wear your rings, the lifeforce ("G'hi") energy within those rings becomes bound to your body and spirit. The more powerful your rings are, the higher your base statistics become. If you keep all your rings at a similar power rating (Charge Level), then you will maximize your stat bonuses. If some of your rings lag behind, then they drag those bonuses back also."
