Stats

Every time you level up you gain 10 stat points, which can be allocated towards different attributes in the stat menu. Each of the stats does have a maximum that the server will allow before they no longer effect your character, so below are each of the stats' maximum amounts, and an explanation of what they do (STR, AGI, and CON are considered the most important on this server due many of the monsters having high HP, Accuracy, and Damage).

• STR (Maximum 64,000): This stat increases your Damage. For every 2 stats, you gain 1-1 damage.
• INT (Maximum 64,000): This stat increases your Magic Damage.
• WIS (Maximum 17,000): This stat increases your TP/MP bar. For every 1 stat, you gain 3 Maximum TP/MP.
• AGI (Maximum 50,000): This stat increases your Accuracy and Evade.
• CON (Maximum 17,000): This stat increases your HP Bar and Defense.
• CHA (Maximum 64,000): This stat currently has no use.

The max level in the game is 246, after hitting this level it will cause you to automatically reborn. When this happens, your level will revert back to 1, but you will keep all of your stats so that you can continue to stack them.

Monsters

In Bones Underground there are hundreds of monsters. Killing monsters is basically how all players earn money and level up. Each monster in the game has a weak point on their back where you will do more damage then normal. All monsters have a certain type of behavior. This behavior indicates how they will react to players. Here is a list of the different types of behaviors.

• Passive: These monsters will not attack you unless you attack them first. They generally wander around and don't pay much attention to people.
• Aggressive: These monsters attack you on sight. They will follow you if you go near them and are generally dangerous. If you're on a map with aggressive monsters, don't walk away from the game or you may be killed.
