Your current stamina. Allows you to dash forward and iframe through attacks from enemies. This means there is a short period of time you are invulnerable to any attack while you dash (there are buffs that can increase this duration). It regenerates as you fight and can be reused often.
Your remaining health flasks. Each one can be used anywhere however it has a stationary cast time so you need to find the best time to use it (it can be cancelled mid cast to avoid an attack). Flasks can be refilled throughout your run, such as from certain dungeon rooms.
Your current coins collected. These can be used in shops and the arcade.

Your current Souls collected. Souls are used for metagame progression and are saved upon death or completion of a run. They can be used to buy new classes, gifts and blessings. Some Events or equipment require sacrificing Souls for rewards. Sometimes there might be a shop that requires Souls rather than coins.

Weapon Elements

Weapons that have a certain element can cause status effects by crits. There are some weapons that can inflict those without requiring crits. For example, Firebomb Codex can inflict Burn with every attack because of its written Effect while Firestorm Scroll only has Fire element and requires crits to inflict burns.

Attunement


Some equipments are required to be "attuned" in order for its effects to work. This is a mechanic to prevent too much equipment micromanagement during fights (such as swapping between 2 body armors during a fight).

To attune an equipment you must equip it and complete dungeon rooms. Each room increases your equipped item's attunement by 1. Equipments can have an attunement value of 1 (1 room) to 3 (3 rooms) and will reset if you enter a new room with it unequipped (i.e in your inventory).

Equipment Rarity

Equipments have their own rarity, beginning with Common up to Legendary. Typically the higher the rarity, the more powerful the item is.
