Primary Stats

Primary stats are the primary way for your character to get stronger. They influence how much damage you deal, how much damage you can survive, and how fast you move among other things. Most Items in the Shop increase one or more of your primary stats at the cost of often decreasing another one. You can also increase your primary stats by Leveling Up and choosing Upgrades.

Along with getting powerful Weapons, Primary Stats are the core way to scale into the late game.

‎Secondary Stats

A range of other stats are counted in Brotato, from item costs to enemy speed.

Secondary generally applies to Structures, unlike the primary stats above. With the exception of Engineering. This means that Structures can benefit from you having knockback, Explosive Damage, or piercing. Just to name a few.
