HP (Health Points) is the amount of damage the player can survive. Maximum HP sets the size of the health pool; current HP is the amount remaining. Increasing maximum HP also contributes to physical damage mitigation in the game's custom combat formulas.
How it works
Maximum HP enters the physical vitality calculation alongside maximum MP and character level. The HP contribution can reduce the custom formula's physical damage by up to 7% when specialized toward HP, before the later damage multipliers. It also changes effects that explicitly use a percentage of maximum HP. See vitality mitigation for the thresholds.
Permanent growth and penalties
These changes remain after equipment is removed and temporary effects expire. Healing foods restore current HP or MP and are not listed as permanent growth.

Equipment
Only equipment that directly changes this stat or rate is listed here. Values are the item’s normal values at its named item level, before additional forge upgrades. Flat bonuses add; percentage core-stat and special-rate traits multiply. Hit, Critical, Counter and Reflect bonuses add percentage points. Click an item for its other effects and acquisition methods.
Within each slot, matching modifiers are grouped from highest to lowest. Equipment within each group is ordered by the +level in its name, lowest to highest; items without a +level come first. Flat and percentage modifiers are listed separately.
