Aptitude

• Track affects acceleration
• Distance affect speed
• Style affects wit but NOT skill activation rate

Stats

Speed

• Affects top velocity at last spurt.
• Getting blocked limits speed to uma in front
• Remember: Distance aptitude affects speed

Stamina

• Affects max endurance (like HP). HP is burnt constantly. No HP = burning out, which means your uma just cannot really run
• HP recovery skills recover based on Max HP and length of race. Recovery skills can also be seen as compensation for lack of Stamina stat.
• Requirement to clear URA:
  • Sprint: 0
  • Mile: 300+
  • Mid: 450+
  • Long: 550+

Power

• Affects caleration cap and ability of change lanes
• Reduces Speed reduction when running uphill
• Later positions need more power to overtake and avoid getting boxed in
• Track aptitude affects acceleration!

Guts

• Terrible?
• Revisit in future?
• It does provide speed and power at the same time though.

Wits

• Affects skill activation rate:
  • 300 = 70%
  • 400~500 = 80%
  • 600+ = 90%
• Affects how likely uma will "Rush".
  • Rush means 1.6x HP consumption, abandon strat and...do stupid shit
• There's other non-important stuff like allowing your uma to take advantage of downhills better (lower HP consumption).

Strategy

Front Running

• Determines the pace of the race, ie HP consumption of all other horses
• Speed >> Wit > Power; Stamina depending on distance
• Wit quite important because they want to activate skills to move forward better and avoid rushing.

Pace Chasers

• Speed >> Power
• Stamina as needed by distance but want 10% more than others because they have worst stamina to Hp conversion (by 11%)
• Drains HP the least though.
• Straightforward.

Late Surger

• Speed > Power
• Most likely to get blocked
• Best stamina to HP conversion
• Must have power to accelerate and overtake
• High risk, high reward

End Close

• Same as Late Surger but they have good skills.
