What do Stats affect in FF7 Crisis Core?

There are various stats in Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core, each one affecting a different aspect of Zack's combat prowess. Knowing what these stats mean and how they affect your playstyle is important. Here are all stats explained in Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core.

  • HP:
    • HP represents your health. You will die if you run out of HP.
  • MP (Magic Points):
    • MP represents your magic, which is depleted by using Materia. If you have no MP, you cannot cast Materia.
  • AP (Attack Points):
    • AP represents Action Points. Certain Materia, such as Command Materia, will expend AP instead of MP. When you reach zero AP, you cannot cast Command Materia.
  • SP (Soldier Points):
    • SP represents Solder Points. This makes the DMW spin and will stop spinning when this reaches zero. The use of SP will expand as you progress through the game. Defeating monsters and some DMW results will increase this.
  • ATK:
    • ATK affects the damage of your physical attacks. The higher this is, the more damage your sword swings will inflict.
  • VIT:
    • VIT affects how much physical damage you take. This is useful against that who attack with physical moves.

  • MAG:
    • MAG affects the damage of your Materia. The higher this value is, the greater the damage Materia inflicts will be.
  • SPR:
    • SPR affects the amount of magic damage you suffer. Increasing this will prevent damage from enemies who attacks with magic.
  • LCK:
    • LCK directly affects critical hits and item drops. The higher this is, the more likely you are to receive both.
  • Buster Sword Proficiency:
    • This is unlocked later in the game. This is increased by using the Buster Sword in combat. As it increases, you will unlock more useful skills and abilities.
