  • HP (Hit Points): Determines how much damage Shanoa can take before being defeated.
  • MP (Magic Points): Governs the use of Glyphs. Regenerates over time.
  • STR (Strength): Increases the damage of physical Glyphs.
  • CON (Constitution): Reduces physical damage taken.
  • INT (Intelligence): Increases the damage of magical Glyphs.
  • MND (Mind): Reduces magical damage taken.

Her inherent agility and backdash also make her a highly mobile character, emphasizing hit-and-run tactics or precise positioning.
