Abbreviation: VIT

Vitality is a stat that is compared with an attacker's strength to determine the damage curve and reduces the maximum amount of damage that a character takes from a blow. Tanks, primarily Paladins, raise VIT in order to live longer and make a White Mage's job easier.

For every two points of Vitality, a character's defense stat is raised by one point.
