Tunic: How to Level Up Stats

Tunic doesn’t see you have a specific character level, but you can make your cute fox protagonist more powerful by improving their stats. These include your attack, defense and HP, and doing so will make the various boss fights in the game far, far easier. In this guide, we’ll talk you through how to level up stats in Tunic, so you can keep on progressing through the game.

All Stats in Tunic

There are five main stats in Tunic that can be leveled up as you progress through the game. These are:

• Attack
• Defense
• Health Points
• Stamina Points
• Magic Points

Leveling Up Stats in Tunic

To level up these stats, head to one of the fox shrines where you can heal up (and where enemies respawn). Instead of pressing A to rest, though, press LB when stood in front of the shrine.

This will bring up your inventory screen and in the bottom right-hand corner, you’ll see five different items, shown in the screenshot below.

Select one of these and you’ll see an amount of orange crystal currency appear above it. This indicates how much you’ll need to hand over with the item selected in order to improve one of your stats.

Press A and then confirm the choice again, and a short cutscene will play where you sacrifice the item in the fire of the shrine. Your stat will then be leveled up.

Where to Find Stat Leveling Items?

These items are found in treasure chests scattered throughout the game’s open world and in some of its dungeons, so make sure to thoroughly explore as you’re making your way through the game.
