There are four main screens to become familiar with: The statistics screen, the skills screen, the dungeon screen, and the combat screen.

Statistics

After taking loot from a treasure chest or clicking on one of your party members' portraits on the bottom, you will be able to access the statistics screen. This is one of the most important screens, showing your character's armor, statistics, and inventory.

Note that the bottom bar with your party members on it stays constant throughout all screens except for the combat screen. You'll be seeing it a lot.

To the left, you can view your current armor, health, and power for that character. You can see colored shimmers on some of my rogue's armor, meaning I have activated an orb on that piece of armor. Orbs are covered in greater detail in other items.

Next to that is the inventory. You can see all of your items here, and sort them in different ways:

  • "None" will keep your inventory as they are, and new items that you receive will simply be added onto the end.
  • "Level" sorts your items by their level.
  • "Type" categorizes your items by potions, orbs, weapons, armor, and other items.
  • "Rarity" will sort items of different rarity next to each other. You can tell an item's rarity by the item's border: gray for damaged, white for regular, green for magical, blue for rare, purple for special, and orange for legendary. Examples of each can be seen in the screenshot.
  • "Price" sorts items by how much gold they are worth. I have my inventory ordered by price right now.

You can also show items selectively.

  • "All" will show all your items. This is the one I have right now.
  • "Usable" will only show items usable by the character you have active.
  • "Weapons" will only show weapons.
  • "Armor" will only show armor.
  • "Misc" will only show other items.
  • "Recommend" will only show items suggested for your character.

The statistics are above the inventory. To the left, you can see your attributes. When you have stat points to spend, you can allocate them here. Next to those are other attributes you can only get from items or certain passive skills.
