Fps may also refer to "Frames per second" i.e. "i lowered my fps to minimize battery consumption" which applies to the battery saver function in al.

Also, what does PUG mean?

STR ---------- Strength (Health)
DEX ---------- Dexterity (Dodge, Critical)
INT ---------- Intelligence (Bonus Damage, Mana, Damage)

str/dex/int applies differently for each class. By the looks of it, you used a mage to come up with this.
Mostly 2 out of 3 increase hp, but not equally same
bonus dmg only applies to primary stat.

PvE = Player vs. Environment
TDM = Team Death Match

I see. Thanks for the clarification and yes, I'm a mage
But I do not get what you mean by "mostly 2 out of 3 increase hp, but not equally same". pls further elaborate?

If you're a rogue:
1 DEX = 3 HP
1 INT = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

If you're mage:
1 INT = 3 HP
1 DEX = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

If you're warrior:
1 STR = 10 HP
1 INT = 3 HP
1 DEX = 3 HP

[Remiem]

Thanks for this great guide. Stickied.

If you're a rogue:
1 DEX = 3 HP
1 INT = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

Specifically for rogue :
1 dex = 3hp /0.4 dmg / 0.02 critical/ 0.04dps

1 int = 10 mana /5 hp

1 str = 10 hp
