Stat Discussion - CON

[Tharius]

Use this topic to post anything we KNOW about constitution or SUSPECT but let's please identify our sources as much as possible.

If you have any ideas where CON could be used in a creative way, please post the idea here and it'll get passed along to The Symposium.

CON contributes directly to HP gains when gaining a new level, for this reason it is recommended to max con when levelling. It is rumored that con from eq gives better overall gains than con from spells.

I usually have a set of eq that gives con that I will swap on during the fight that will give me enough XP to level (I use a trigger that watches my exp needed to next level and automatically swaps out gear when I'm at 200k or less XP needed)

CON > max now contributes to your DR.

Edit:
Yes - Damage reduction, sorry for the confusion. News 1004.

Source? Unless you mean "damage reduction" instead of "damage roll".
