Understanding Worker Stats

Learn how worker stats affect your cards' performance and resource gathering in Karuta.

⚒︎ Understanding Worker Stats

Not all cards are equally hardworking — some are simply better suited for the job! ♡

✦ 01・WHAT ARE WORKER STATS?

Every card has worker stats that determine its effectiveness when gathering bits.

A card's effort is calculated using several characteristics, including purity, style, toughness, and vanity.

Higher effort generally means more resources gathered.

◈ 02・UNDERSTANDING EACH STAT

• Purity: Based on the card's condition when it was dropped. Better initial condition contributes to higher purity.
• Style: Influenced by the card's frame and dye. Mystic dyes contribute more style than regular dyes.
• Toughness: Based on how many players were fought off when the card was originally grabbed. Toughness can also be improved through visits, up to 80 Affection Rating (AR), and the Ignore feature.
• Vanity: Influenced by the card's print rarity within its edition. Vanity can increase or decrease as more cards of that edition are printed.

※ Tip: Visiting a card that you originally grabbed can increase its Affection Rating and improve toughness. We'll explain visits, AR, and Ignore in ♡ Introduction to Card Visits and ♡ Visit Actions & Interactions, and Koibito in ♡ Koibito & Relationships.

⌖ 03・VIEWING WORKER STATS

You can inspect a card's worker stats using:

▸ Viewing worker information:

Example: kwi abc123

▸ Sorting your collection by effort:

This helps you identify your strongest potential workers.

◇ 04・IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW

• Worker stats are based on a card's healthy state, but injuries can significantly reduce its working effort.
• Improving a card's characteristics can increase its overall effectiveness.
• Visits from a card's owner or Koibito can help improve its working stats.

We'll cover preparing, healing, and maintaining workers in the next guide.
