Hey everyone, I just started playing Diablo 4 a couple of days ago and I’ve hit level 27 by taking on side quests, exploring dungeons, and wrapping up events. I’m playing as a Necromancer, and I’m trying to wrap my head around how stats work because my attack power only shows 64 right now. Here are my current stats: Armor 300, Life 97, Strength 55, Intelligence 170, Willpower 54, Dexterity 55. Any advice on how to improve my character?

Aside from stat advice, make sure to look for the Lilith statues scattered throughout the game! Collecting them benefits all your characters and persists across seasons. Also, try to max out the renown in each zone by activating waypoints, doing side quests, and completing dungeons. This will reward you with skill points and other bonuses, which can greatly enhance your gameplay experience. Don’t rush; enjoy the story and the side quests!
Your attack power is just a starting point and doesn’t determine how powerful you really are. It can change depending on whether you’re in town or out in the world and which passives you have active. Focus more on stacking Intelligence because that’s your core stat as a Necromancer. Higher Intelligence means more damage and better resistances. Strength boosts your armor, Dexterity helps with crits and dodges, and Willpower assists with resource generation and dealing overpowered damage. Just keep playing, upgrade your gear, and you’ll do great!
To understand your stats better, open your stats menu (use the left stick on consoles when you’re in the character or equipment screen). Each stat will have an explanation pop-up. As a Necromancer, your skills scale primarily off Intelligence, which also increases your resistances. Don’t stress too much about your attack power right now. It’s all about the damage multipliers in the end game. Just focus on killing enemies efficiently; once things become too easy, consider bumping up the difficulty!
