How to raise stats in For The King 2

There are two ways to raise your character's stats. You can equip gear that give stat bonuses to gain temporary stat increases. The bonuses last as long as you have the item equipped. Alternatively, you can use Candies to permanently increase your stats. Candies are consumable items which come in a variety of forms with each increasing a certain stat. You can also find random locations, such as the Trainer, that can raise stats permanently.

Your character's stats do not increase because you level up. To raise them, you must rely on items and gear. When a stat is receiving a bonus, it will appear green instead of white. You can hover any stat to see what the base is and what bonuses are active and verify what piece of gear gives the bonus before changing your equipped items.

Where to get Candy in For The King 2

You can find Candy at merchants, with Night Markets having a higher chance to carry them, in For The King 2. Additional Candy types can be unlocked in the Lore Store. Candies have a chance to be random loot from dungeons, though it is rare. If you unlock them in the Loadout tab, they can be given to and used by your characters at the start of a run. Be sure to give the correct Candy to a character to raise their best stat.
