Vitality

Vitality is one of the core attributes for characters in Diablo III. It governs the amount of Life a character has.

Each point of Vitality gives:

• +x to Life.

Attribute Design

All attributes have changed since their original conception. In December 2010 Bashiok made an announcement about these changes:

Vitality: Increases health
- And it's staying that way!
- This stat has no secondary effect (seeing the pattern here?).

Attribute points are no longer assigned by the player; they are auto-assigned. See the relevant section in the attributes article.

Development

Originally, Vitality governed a character's life and mana regeneration.

1 point of Vitality gave: (based on Class)

• +x Life
• Mana Regeneration of +x per second

Although attributes have been changed twice in the development of Diablo III, Vitality stayed the same during the attributes overhaul in 2012.
