World of Warcraft: This and That

Here is a map of all the Tin Vein locations in The Barrens

       Just wanted to make sure everyone knew what each attribute was and what it did. Here's a brief summary of each that I put together:

Strength: Strength determines the physical power of your character. A high strength improoves your attack power. Strength is also a determining factor in how much damage you block if you use a shield. Rouges and hunters only use a partial value of strength to determine their attack power, while classes such as Warriors, or Paladins (depending on their talent tree spec) have almost all their attack power based on their strength.

Agility: Agility improves your armor rating, your chance to dodge an attack, and your chance to score a critical (crit) with a melee or ranged attack (dealing more damage). Rouges and Hunters use agility, with a combination of strength and stamina, to determine their attack power.

Stamina: Stamina affects your hit points, no matter what class you play as. Characters designed to absorb damage, such as warriors and paladins, gain more benefit from stamina, than classes who have other capabilities, such as rouges, and druids, who in turn, gain more benefit than pure spellcasters, like mages. I go by the rule that each stamina point is = to 10 hit points. So, if you have an item which has +32 stam, that means that you will be getting 320 hit points as well, when you put on the item.

Intelligence: Intelligence (Int) improves your mana reserves, and partly determines how hard a spellcaster will do damage with a spell. It has no bearing on non-spellcaster type classes, such as warriors.

Spirit: Spirit determines the regeneration rate for your health and mana. Higher spirit = faster regeneration.
