Nomad Idle can get a bit overwhelming as you face waves of enemies in this idle adventure. Luckily, you can customize your build to add new powers and abilities to get through the levels efficiently. You need to learn how stats work, and what happens when you upgrade your character stats. If you are wondering how to upgrade stats in the game, this guide will explain how to do that in Nomad Idle.
How Stat Upgrades Work in Nomad Idle
To start upgrading your stats, you are required to farm Stat Points. You automatically get stat points as you keep playing the game, level up, and defeat enemies. You would notice that on the left side of the screen, a red exclamation mark will appear on the Stats box. If you hover your mouse over it, it shows you how many unspent stat points you currently have. Click on the stat box and you will be taken to the stats upgrade menu. There are 7 stats that you can upgrade, and we have explained each stat and what they do below.
- Strength (STR): Increases damage and critical damage, excluding Summons and damage-over-time.
- Dexterity (DEX): Cooldown reduction and increased projectile speed.
- Agility (AGI): Increases movement speed, critical hit chance, and evasion rate.
- Vitality (VIT): Increases max health and health regeneration speed.
- Wisdom (WIS): Boosts max mana and mana regeneration. Increases Summons’ critical damage.
- Intelligence (INT): Increases magic damage.
- Luck (SPI): Increases item drop rates.
To assign a skill point to a stat, select any stat and press the Up arrow. Or, you can also assign all your stat points to one skill by pressing the Double Up arrow right below the Up arrow. Keeping the Double Up arrow on will automatically assign the skill points to that particular stat, and you don’t need to open up the stats menu every time to assign the points. But, this option is not recommended, especially if you are trying to customize a build to suit your gameplay style.
You can also remove stat points if you don’t want them in a particular skill by pressing the Down arrow, or the Double Down arrow to remove all skills for this stat. The same rules apply here for the Double Down arrow, no skill points will be assigned to that particular stat if this button is kept on.
Best Stats to Unlock First
As you load into Nomad Idle for the first time, you need to get stronger to face the wave of enemies that appear before you. Invest in Strength and Vitality first to keep your health up and increase damage output. Keep increasing them both around 10 times, then move on to Wisdom and Dexterity. That way, you get to use up your skills to kill more enemies in the later stages of the game and level up quickly.
