What Is this guide for?
This guide is to help people learn more about the stats spirits can have, what you get when you increase your stats, how much stats can increase by, as well as clarification on certain requirements for art and calculations.
What do all the stats Impact?
Each stat is important in its own way, and depending on what you're aiming for depends on which stats you might want to raise more. Your spirit's stats can be found in their description.
The following bits of information are about each stat:
⇓ Health ⇓
Health's only impact is for PvP and battles. For battle events, for example, the amount of damage vs how much health your spirit has determines your cooldown. There is no cooldowns for PvP events. You don't have to worry though, a spirit reaching 0 health WILL NOT make them deceased. The higher health you have, the longer you will last in PvP events and the less cooldown you will have. Health can only be raised by leveling and rebirthing, as well as some familiars.
⇓ Speed ⇓
Speed is an important factor in many events. Races, for example, use speed as the main factor in determining winners. Speed can also impact a spirit's turn time in battles, the higher the speed stat, the sooner your spirit will attack.
⇓ Stamina ⇓
Stamina is an important factor in recovery time. Discovery Cove, for example, allows a spirit two images per day if the stamina is over 50. Rebirthing and Summoning are also affected by a spirit's Stamina, as the higher the stamina is, the shorter time you have to wait to use the spirit for more activities and events. Lastly, Stamina also impacts equipment slots, as the higher the stamina, the more equipment slots you have.
⇓ Strength ⇓
Strength is a large factor in how many equipment item slots you can have. The higher the strength, the more items you can shove on your spirit. Strength also impacts PvP and PvE results, where strength impacts your damage output on high defense enemies.
⇓ Attack ⇓
Attack impacts mostly just Battle and VS events, but the higher the attack stat, the more damage you do to enemies. CRIT damage is also based off of this stat.
⇓ Luck ⇓
Luck is one of the most important stats in the game. It not only impacts the rarity and amount of drops and items you get, it also impacts the type of enchantment from enchanting and the likelihood of getting corrupted items, the chance you get a CRIT hit in battle events, the likelihood of a summon coming out healthy, and more!
⇓ Defense ⇓
Defense is your armor rating, and is, once again, important mainly only for battle events and VS. The higher your defense, the less damage you take from enemies.
⇓ Charisma ⇓
Charisma is the last stat in the list, and influences the slots you get for familiars. The higher your Charisma stat is, the more familiars you can attach to your spirit.
Stat Milestones
The following is a list of milestones for each stat, and what happens when you reach that stat level. Keep in mind that the stats, as stated above, impact other things too, the following is simply a guide for people to see milestones for drastic impacts of the stats.

Reading and Understanding the Stat Formula
The stats are fairly simple, even tho they may look a little confusing. There are four sets of numbers in each stat section as follows:
(6) +3 *2 +5 T:23
The first number in the parenthesis is the base stat that was given to the spirit when it was summoned.
The second number is the perma stats which have been added to your spirit from consumable items, training, or leveling up. This number will stop when the total has reached the cap.
The third number with the multiplier is for when the character is rebirthed. The number will be 1 if it is not rebirthed.
The fourth number is added stats from non-consumable items, equipment, boosts, and familiars. If the total has reached the cap this number will not stop.
The last number, the T stands for Total, and the number is the total stat for the spirit currently, from adding together the base stat, formula and the additional stats. This is not traditional PEMDAS formula and is calculated left to right. If the number is a decimal or over/under the minimum or cap, or impacted by certain boosts, there will be another number in parenthesis after to show what the stat is actually rolled as in prompts.
It's that simple! This formula goes beside all stats and is updated whenever the spirit levels up or when stats increase.
EXP Calculation chart
Levels themselves are very easy to gain... At first. As you level, you need a bit more experience each time, about 10% more than the last threshold. This means as time goes on, it'll take more and more work to level your spirit... However once you rebirth it, it's level goes back to 1, and it becomes easy to level it again! (Remember that rebirthing drastically increases current stats too, and its level being reset does not hinder anything.) Whenever you level up, you get 10% of your current stats. See the chart below as reference:

.5 stats will not impact anything and is simply there for level increase reminders.
If the spirit is rebirthed, the max cap is raised to 200. Every time the spirit is rebirthed a *2 applicator (or more with certain boosts) is added to the stats formula. This number increases with every rebirth, however the number before it will stop if the total stats reaches 200.

Clarifying Backgrounds, Animation, and Docks
⇓ Backgrounds ⇓
An Abstract Background is clarified by there being a background consisting of multiple colors or a design, but no real scenery or placement, This can be explained as texture or splashes of color.
Simple Backgrounds consist of some solid design, showing a simple scene to explain location of the subject, but isn't detailed enough to show the environment further.
Complex Backgrounds are like Simple Backgrounds, but must have a foreground, background, and far background. It must show depth and placement, and show more around than just the immediate location, but also what's beyond.
3D Backgrounds are very complex and generally have a ton of detail and layers to replicate real life scenes They can be done by taking pictures or using a 3d program, but reusing backgrounds are not allowed.
⇓ Animations ⇓
Simple Animations usually consist of one or two actions, generally a blinking and/or bouncing animation, a snow or rainfall, smiles or ear flicks, etc. They usually only have a couple frames.
Complex Animations consist of multiple animation bits, many frames, and much more movement. It generally means it has more than two movements happening at once.
Short Scenes will have backgrounds and multiple animation bits intertwined to show a scene of the subject interacting with the world.
⇓ Docked Points ⇓
Docked points are given if you miss a feature on the spirit. The more important the feature, the harsher the score. This is to encourage people to spend that extra bit of time or effort on something simple for events and activities.
Small docks are given for minor things such as forgetting a small marking or not following the markings correctly. Making fur not reflect the type it has can also be here.
Medium docks are given for larger things, such as forgetting features such as coloring claws or the whiskers or any charms. Drawing a spirit floating or flying when it does not have wings or Wingless Flight also counts as a medium dock.
Big docks are given when the artist forgets to do a big part of the spirit, whether that's forgetting the horns, wings, or even energy, to colors being dramatically off or the design being completely inaccurate.
Please keep in mind Docked points ARE NOT given in the case of sketches, where the guidelines and such are still showing, or for most general art, art that is not meant for events or activities, unless blatantly obvious.
