Stats

Stats are important aspects and attributes of the player in Sons of the Forest. Current player statistics are only limited to the HUD. These include Health, Stamina, Armor, Strength, Fullness, Hydration, and Energy. Some hidden stats include, but aren't limited to- internal temperature, wetness, and stealth.

Stats are still being developed and will most likely resemble that of The Forest.

Independent stats

• Strength - Increases when the player performs certain actions. There are 100 levels of strength. The rate of progression is exponential. It is unclear whether performing the same action gives diminishing returns. Strength affects the player's max health and damage inflicted. Each gained strength level increase damage by 1%, or up to double the damage at max level. This affects damages to enemies inflicted by melee weapons and damage to trees.
