Hi, will there be some sort of poise system in the game. Something that the better it or the more the invests, the less likely player attacks are interrupted from damage. I would see this particularly useful for players with slower attacks weapons. This is just an idea to discuss.

Good news! From the pre-early access build, Poise is displayed on the character page (under Armor on the defense column).

In addition to the stat, I’m _guessing_ that’s what the second icon is on armor and shield items:

The left icon of the shield is probably armor. The right icon of… I don’t know. Bigfoot riding a snowboard? That’s probably what the item contributes to your Poise stat–because nothing says _poise_ like a Sasquatch on a snowboard.
