This guide will attempt to explain every stat that can be found in Card Survival - Tropical Island, how they can be modified by the survivor and how they interact between them.

To quickly find a specific stat, you can use search typing "-" first, example "-temperature" to find the exact part of the guide you are looking for.

Each stat will have a brief explanation of what the stat is, a few tips, what the stats impacts and a table that explains how it naturally increases/decreases every game turn, a 15 minutes interval, and actions that can be performed to modify the stat right away or over time.

As the game does not provide numeric values, the guide will provide approximations or estimation in a percentage of the bar when needed.

The game does contain information about each stat by clicking on the bars on the bottom-left corner of the screen.
The stats will be displayed in the same order as the in-game stats menu, clicking this icon found on the top-left corner of any stat or in the Character screen found by clicking the equipment menu.

Stats will be divided in sections as primary or secondary, because of steam limits and not necessarily by the severity or importance of the stat.

As the game is very complex and has many cards / actions, it is possible certain actions or interactions are missing.
If you find an error, please comment.

This stat consider the encumbrance of the cards carried in the inventory, equipped items and items in carried containers.
Currently there is no way to increase the maximum Encumbrance, but crafting and Carrying a Basket and Sacks acts as an increase this stat.
Baskets do raise the Encumbrance stat, but the items inside it will not. This amount is even better if its woven with a rope to make a backpack.
Sacks can carry the same amount a Basket does, but when they are empty they will weight less.
Items that can be equipped will raise Encumbrance stat less than what they will do if carried on the inventory slots.
Satchels are light encumbrance cards that can be equipped to carry some light items, very good to have Weston, Handrills and something to lit, candles and bandages in them.
Many items that does not look like an equip can be equipped like Monkeys, Ropes and spears what used a Rope card to craft it, a detailed list can be found bellow.

To train a skill, is always better to wait 3 hours between each attempt that raises the skill.
Repeating continuously the same action over and over or between this 3 hours interval will give less and less progress to the point no increase will be gained.

The only exception to this rule are skills that are performed in different areas, for example, spear fishing in 3 different zones will give more skill progress than spear fishing 3 times in the same zone.

Climbing skill increases the odds to climb trees, cliffs, shaft and ropes.
The higher the skill, the better chances to succeed the attempt and reduces the chances to get wounded when failing the attempt.
Training in an area has better chances to not get wounded than climbing in the same area.
Having a Rope Card in any of the 6 inventory cards gives a bonus in the climb attempts, this is very useful when the skill is at 0%.
At 15%, the Palm Trees chance to climb to get coconut will show "Feeling Confident".
At 30%, the Palm Trees chance to climb to get coconut will show "Certain I can do it".
At 41%, the Wetlands cliff chance to climb shows as "Might Succeed".
At 85%, the Wetlands cliff chance to climb shows as "Feeling Confident".
At 50% skill can be considered "good" to actually climb Cliff or Shafts, but as this is a risky skill, the higher the skill, the better. Even at this skill level, attempting to climb a Palm Tree can cause sprains.
Do not attempt climbing while it is raining as it lowers the chances to almost 0.

• Train climbing on a Palm Tree.
  
• Train climbing on a Cliff
  
• Train climbing on a Shaft
  
• Climb a Palm Tree
  
• Climb up a Cliff
  
• Climb down a Cliff

The skill also increases the chances to not get wounded exploring the sunken ship or from sea creatures.
The cards obtained diving on the sea depends on the zone.
The chance to go back or forward to the Bird Rock is the survivor swim skill, so at 50% skill level the odds to reach the Bird Rock or go back home are the same as flipping a coin.

• Dive on a sea card
  
• Attempt to reach the Bird's Rock
  
• Attempt to get out of the Bird's Rock
  
• Attempt to find something on the sunken ship

Herbology skill allows the survivor to learn different blueprints that involves plants, herbs, flowers, vegetables, mushrooms and fruits.
The skill also increases the chance to find useful plants while exploring an area and the chance to get poisoned eating Assorted Mushrooms.
A good way to raise the skill is harvesting Snakegrass and grind them. The ground plant is a vegetable that can be eaten.
Another option is harvesting Assorted Mushrooms, as they grow alone over time. As eating those can be dangerous, they make a good bait for traps.
At 100% enables to build the irrigation system zone upgrade

• Harvest any plant, herb, flower, vegetable, mushroom.
  
• Harvest from a Snakegrass patch
  
• Harvest from a Palm Bush
  
• Harvest from a Spider Lily Plant

• Cook anything at a Campfire
  
• Cook anything at a Stove
  
• Smoke meat or fish at a Stove

Crafting skill allows to learn more complex blueprints.
It goes up when completing most of the blueprints.
Aside day to day blueprint crafting, a good way to train this skill are:

Use extra fat or beeswax and craft candles.
At 100% enables the research to unlock the Stone Hut

• Craft Blueprints
  
• Craft a bone needle
  
• Craft a bone hook

Tailoring skill allows to learn more complex blueprints.
As a lot of blueprints use cords, this skill will naturally go up as the survivor gets more tools or upgrades.
If the survivor has extra time to kill, a good way to spend it is either getting fiber from Snake Grass and making cord.
If materials are scarce, a way to get experience would be un-weave cloths or Ropes and weave them again, but this is a bad way to use the survivor time as this basically gives nothing in the long process.

• Craft a Fiber Cord, combining Fiber + Fiber or using a Spindle.
  
• Craft a Yard card, combining Fiber Cord + Fiber Cord or using a Spindle.
  
• Craft a Rope Card, combining Yard + Yard
  
• Place thread on a Loom, combining Yard + Loom
  
• Make cloth in a non empty Loom
  
• Enlarge cloth in a Loom.
  
• Craft blueprints involving Cloth and leather

Woodworking skills allow to learn more complex and very useful blueprints and the chances to craft a Wood Figurine.
This is one of the most challenging skill to raise as the skill consumes Stamina and needs basic and specialized tools, but the upgrades it provides are the best available.
At the beginning, the best way to raise the skill is to combine Any Axe with a zone card that has many trees, like a Jungle or the Wetlands.
If the survivor has access to a Sharp Knife, the skill can be raised by making Wood Shavings, via the blueprint or combining Wood + Sharp Knife until the Wood Carving blueprint is available and use Wood Carving + Sharp Knife combination.

• Getting wood from Zone Card with any axe
  
• Attempt to fell a big tree
  
• Crafting blueprints learned from Woodworking Skill.
  
• Combine Wood + Sharp Knife to get Wood Shavings
  
• Combine Wood Carving + Sharp Knife to attempt making a figurine.

Knapping skills allows to craft the most sharp tools.
The first skill increases can only be obtained practicing combining Any Rock + Flint, this combination destroys the flint, so around 5 pieces will be needed for the first unlock.
After a few practice attempts, the Flint Knife blueprint will be unlocked and the skill can be raised crafting this blueprint.
Flint and Flint Slabs can be found in the Rocks and the 3 Highlands zones, the caves, the volcano and the desolated beach, they can be kinda rare to find, so keep exploring, even if all the landmarks in the area are found.
The Flint Slabs are used to craft the Flint Axes, but the unlock requires quite some training, so breaking the first slab pieces to train the skill can be a good idea as breaking them gives a few flint pieces.
The tools this skill provides have less durability than their stone counterparts, but they are advanced tool enabling to practice Woodworking or chopping down trees faster, because of this, is recommended to not use these tools in the day to day basic blueprints.
At 7%, unlocks the Flint Knife. This knife can be used to stat training Woodworking.
At 14%, unlocks the Flint Spear. Has good chances to slay creatures.
At 20%, unlocks the Flint Axe. This Axe can chop down large trees in two hits.
At 35%, unlocks the Obsidian Knife. This knife has a time reduction to butchering animals.

Increases the chance to catch animals with traps and to obtain better quality traps.
The Dead fall trap will be most likely the initial way to train the skill until the survivor has access to another trap from a Perk.
The Dead fall trap can be disarmed to recover the Rock and one stick, so there is no reason to not set as many as possible of these traps.
For trap baits, Fish scraps, Spoiled food, Bugs, Assorted Mushrooms and Palm Bush Seeds are good cards to use because their availability, limited uses or they are dangerous to consume them.
A Fish + Knife combination will split a fish into smaller pieces and they can be used in many traps.
Once a trap is baited, don't remove the bait, as it will reset it timer to catch something.
If the bait spoils to a remain, it will reset the trap timer to catch something, so is recommended to use baits that don't spoil, like salted fish, meat or palm bush seeds, followed by food that slowly spoil, like Lemongrass, or any other bait that is fresh.

• Craft any trap blueprint
  
• Fail to catch anything on any trap
  
• Catch any animal on any trap
  
• Rearm any spring trap

Increases the chance to catch fish and the fish quality obtained.
The fish that can be obtained depends on the zone the survivor is fishing.
The skill can be raised when using any fishing line tool on any sea card.
It takes 1 hour per fishing attempt so when the skill is very low always use a baited line as this increase the chance to get something.
Fishing can be done without any light and there is no risk to get injured by Sea Kraits or Sharks.
The first line available can be obtained once the survivor has access to Bird Bones or Bone splints to craft a Bone Hook.
This can be done either by catching a bird with a trap or get a bird already dead while exploring some areas, like the Rocks.
This skill also unlocks the Fish Trap blueprint.

• Fish using any line in any sea card.

Increases the chance to succeed fishing using a spear on any sea card.
The better the quality of the spear, the better the chances to get something.
A fishing spear is one of the best to train the skill as it does not use hard resources to obtain.

The spear quality is:
Harpoon > Fishing Spear > Other spears

• Combine Spear + Sea card

Increases the chances to hunt animals as well as the chances to get injured while fighting them with a spear.
Most likely, this will be always the highest combat skill for the survivor as a Rustic Spear is easy and fast way to obtain a weapon.
To be able to hunt an animal with the spear, it must be keep in one of the 6 slots in the bottom part of the screen or be equipped if the spear used a rope to be crafted.
Sea Gulls, Partridges and Goat will not fight back, so they can be used safely to train while having a chance to get food.
Monkeys also can be a good way to train the skill, as they can only bite back and the wound heals kinda fast.
The spear itself can be used to train the skill taking 1 hour, but it will be always faster to train the skill by finding an animals.
The spear quality is:
Obsidian Spear >Copper Spear > Flint Spear > Rustic Spear
Harpoon is the best spear to fight sharks.
A shield and leather pants are recommended when fighting animals as they lower the chance to get injuries.

• Train 1 hour with any Spear or Broom.
  
• Train 30 Minutes with a Harpoon.
  
• Attack any animal using a spear

Increases the chance to hunt animals as well the chances to get injured while fighting them.
The same tips to train Spear Fighting can be applied here.
To be able to hunt an animal with the bow. it must be keep in one of the 6 slots in the bottom part of the screen alongside at least one arrow card either in this part or inside an equipped quiver.
Most likely once the survivor has access to a bow and arrow, the spear fighting skill will be quite advanced, but Archery has better chance to get animals without getting wounded.
This skill also useful to get bats from the cavern they live and has higher chance to scare away the monkeys on their den.

• Train 1 hour with a bow and arrows.
  
• Attack any animal
  
• Attempt to hunt bats

Increases the chance to hunt small animals throwing rocks at them.
If the survivor finds an animal and has no access to a weapon or does not want to damage their weapon, a rock in the area can be thrown at Sea gulls, Partridges and Goats.
This skill also can be used to try to get bats from their cavern or to try to get a coconut from a Palm Tree.
The chances are very low for any of these actions when untrained, until the survivor wants to learn how to craft a sling, is recommended to avoid this skill and use the wild animals encounters to train Spear fighting or Archery skills.

• Train 1 hour with a Stone card
  
• Attack a Sea Gull, Partridge or Goat
  
• Attempt to hunt bats in the Bat Cave
  
• Attempt to get a coconut from a Palm Tree

Increases the chance to hunt animals throwing rocks at them, but with a sling.
