i.e. if you have a weapon with DEX and ACC requirements, those 2 skills are MORE important than any other, but all battle stats affect all weapons to some degree. All of them.


as far as ranged weapons go - aside from requirements

acc - directly affects ranged damage (more accurate aim, hit vital organs, etc)
dex - better chance to hit effectively (duh, youre more nimble and can predict your enemy's movements etc)
res - effects unknown. at some point, zenith alluded to the possibility that res has some super secret benefit to everything, hence its difficulty in training
str - small bonus to ranged damage (carry heavier weaponry, even the most accurate gunsman will have difficulty aiming a heavy weapon w/o sufficient str. it definitely affects dmg)

as far as Acc and Str go, the opposite is usually the case for melee weapons


endurance generally allows you to fight more rounds without stalemating. more endurance = longer battles. i believe it adds damage to combat as well, but i have no idea to what degree

"certain weapons use certain skills MORE"
i refuse to believe this.

refuse to believe it, that's absolutely fine, but you wont be capitalizing on your abilities

this statement refers specifically to requirements on weapons. if your weapon requires ACC and DEX, training those stats exclusively will benefit you more in combat than if you train acc dex and str equally

theres a reason there are stat requirements, and if you surpass those requirements, you will do better
