# Skills and Stats

Each [pilot ](/cosmic-rules/pilots.md)can have levels in 4 different starting skills, depending on their species and wearables.

<figure><img src="/files/tp0PmwUveO07rZTufFgn" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

When using [items](/cosmic-rules/items.md) from specific species (they are uncommon and each has a skill attributed to it), skills will be added to the pilot until the end of the battle.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Example**\
Each use of a *Venusian Laser* (or any Venusian item) will raise the *Magic* skill during the fight.
{% endhint %}

*Intelligence* and *Stamina* stats are derived from the respective skills and change faster during combat.

Pilots' skills will determine both the starting and maximum score of those stats.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Example**\
&#x20;+10 Stamina skill points means the pilot will have +10 maximum *Stamina* capacity to use. &#x20;
{% endhint %}

*Food, Drug* and offensive actions by the opponent always affect the stat value, and not the total capacity limit.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Stamina" %}
Determines the maximum actions a pilot can perform and the chance to escape from battles.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Computation" %}
Affects the power of all attacks and defensive systems.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Intelligence" %}
Affects all actions. Extra Intelligence means extra effectiveness during combat and decreased Intelligence means a disavantage in battle.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Magic" %}
Affects the power of all actions involving amulets and charming.
