Cursed Gear is one of the most mechanically demanding Roblox action RPGs around, drawing inspiration from NieR and Jujutsu Kaisen to create a deep combat and progression system. At the heart of every strong build is your attribute distribution, and getting those stat investments wrong can leave your character feeling underpowered regardless of which Gear or Technique you choose. This guide breaks down all six attributes, how to earn and spend Attribute Points efficiently, and exactly which stats to prioritize for each Gear class.
What Are Attributes in Cursed Gear?
Attributes are the six core stats that define your character's combat identity in Cursed Gear. Your Gear (class), Clan, and Technique all influence which attributes are worth investing in, so understanding what each stat actually does before spending a single point is critical for min-maxing your build.
Here is a full breakdown of every attribute and what it controls:
info
Awareness is the most multifunctional stat in the game. It improves blocking endurance, offensive stamina pressure, and True Black Flash odds simultaneously, making it valuable on almost any melee-oriented build.All six attributes follow a grading system that runs from F1 through SS5. Grades improve how certain attributes scale, and each attribute has a soft cap at SF1. Once you hit that threshold, you will encounter diminishing returns, which makes diversifying into secondary stats increasingly attractive at that stage.
How to Increase Attributes in Cursed Gear
Time is the primary progression currency in Cursed Gear. You accumulate Unstored Time by completing missions and defeating enemies during Expeditions. The catch: if you die before extracting, all of your Unstored Time is lost. A successful extraction converts it into Stored Time, which you spend at Time Machines in the hub to level up your character and earn Attribute Points.
At the current level cap of 150, you have access to 300 total Attribute Points: 150 earned from natural leveling and 150 from Stat-Packs (awarded every 25 levels). Stat-Packs let you add 25 points to any attribute without increasing your character level, which is useful for fine-tuning your stat distribution.
info
Common Clans are generally weak in combat, but they grant a 25% EXP gain buff. Using one early on accelerates your path to Level 25, an important milestone for unlocking your first Stat-Pack and building out your attribute foundation faster.

How Do Cybernetics Affect Attributes?
Cybernetics are one of the most impactful ways to extend your attribute totals beyond standard leveling. Some Cybernetics directly buff stats tied to specific attributes (like HP for Durability or movement speed for Dexterity), while others scale their effects based on how high a given attribute already is. Here are some standout examples organized by attribute:
Output Cybernetics:
- Entropy Vents (Active): Makes M1 attacks scale with Output instead of Physicality for a short window, at the cost of your Technique Bar.
- 200% Output (Active): Halves all skill cooldowns for 10 seconds, effectively doubling your ability uptime.
Dexterity Cybernetics:
- Afterimage Step Replicator (Passive): Boosts sprinting speed based on your Dexterity value, triggered by double-tapping W while holding E.
- Stalker (Passive): Increases movement speed when your opponent is low on health.
Efficiency Cybernetics:
- Assault Loop Engine (Passive): Restores extra stamina every four hits, rewarding aggressive play.
- Effortless (Passive): Reduces the stamina cost of M1 and M2 attacks.
- Energized (Passive): Speeds up stamina recovery after a successful parry.
Durability Cybernetics:
- Steel Bones (Passive): Caps single-hit incoming damage at 10% of your maximum HP, hard-countering burst damage.
- Red Veil System (Passive): At 15% HP, delays incoming damage by approximately two seconds, giving you a window to react.
- Overclock (Passive): Reduces skill cooldowns by 25% while you are low on health.
Cybernetic Orbs are random loot drops found during Expeditions from missions, enemies, chests, and the open world. Each Orb grants a Cybernetic item with a randomly assigned attribute buff and debuff. This creates a meaningful trade-off: you can push one stat further at the cost of another. If you want to change those random assignments, you can spend Time at specific hub machines to reshuffle the buffs on any Cybernetic you already own.
