What are the basic attributes of the character?
A3: Every character in the game has three basic attributes: Energy Shield (ES) shields you from damage before your mech takes hit point damage. There are some weapons and skills that ignore shields completely and deal hit point damage directly. Energy Shield is denoted by a yellow bar on the user interface. Hit Points (HP) denotes your characters health points. Once this reaches zero your mech is destroyed. You may choose to re-spawn at the nearest re-spawn location, or use a Battleground Restoration device to re-spawn at your current location. Mental Points (MP) is similar to spell points and is used for gliding your mech and for certain skills that require Mental Points to cast. The Energy Shield attribute will regenerate during combat, however your Hit Points and your Mental Points will not. If your equipment has the Hit Point or Mental Point Recovery ability, then they recover during combat by the amount granted by the equipment.
