The Comprehensive WildStar Primary Attributes Guide
Understanding the attributes in the game is an important part of your success. This guide will cover the Primary Attributes that aids in improving these attributes.
Primary Attributes
There are 6 main primary attributes in the game, and their importance for every class (along with their effect) is different. The importance of the attributes can be determined by the base value of that specific attribute for the specific class.
The most important stat will have a base value of 7, followed by second most important having 5, and the third most 3.When you level up normally, the stats will increase by the amount of their base value. So on level two the attribute/stats with the value 7 will change to 14, while the others will be 10 and 6 respectively.
Each class can be played in two different ways: as a DPS and as a defensive support (Tank or Healer). The attributes and their level of importance are different depending on which way you play a specific class. Based on the base value (7, 5, 3), they are categorized in the following way:
Engineer
DPS: Finesse, Brutality, Moxie
Tank: Tech, Grit, Insight
Esper
DPS: Moxie, Finesse, Brutality
Healer: Insight, Grit, Tech
Medic
DPS: Tech, Moxie, Brutality
Healer: Insight, Grit, Finesse
Spellslinger
DPS: Finesse, Moxie, Brutality
Healer: Insight, Grit, Tech
Stalker
DPS: Brutality, Finesse, Moxie
Tank: Tech, Grit, Insight
Warrior
DPS: Brutality, Finesse, Moxie

If you were to play an Esper, Moxie and Insight would have the base values of 7, while Finesse and Grit have base values of 5, and Brutality and Tech a value of 3.
