Poise and boss stagger
The official July 5 Poise page says Poise is a hidden stagger bar that lets players stagger many bosses briefly, lowers their defense while staggered, and decays quickly if attacks stop landing.
Pilgrammed Stats for Builds and Boss Planning
Use this page to separate checked formulas and Poise rules from player-entered estimates before turning a build idea into a boss-readiness plan.
Formula boundaries
What is safe to calculate now
Stats pages should help players understand uncertainty. They should not turn incomplete wiki extraction into exact-looking numbers.
Damage assumptions
Use player-entered DPS in the planner until weapon attack speed, scaling, status ticks, and resistance details are fully extracted.
Boss HP scaling
The checked planner formula uses base HP multiplied by (321 / 250) to the power of players minus one.
Status duration
Duration and level claims should link back to status-effect sources before they become calculator constants.
Use estimates when exact tables are missing
The planner is designed to work even before every Pilgrammed stat is extracted. Players can enter a conservative DPS estimate, the known or estimated boss base HP, and a survivability confidence level. That keeps the output useful without pretending the site has complete combat tables.
Promote numbers only after they are auditable
A later data pass can turn verified weapon stats, equipment bonuses, status durations, and boss HP values into presets. Until then, the stats wiki should explain what is known, what is estimated, and which source would be needed to make a stronger claim.
Poise belongs here before it becomes build advice
The official Poise page is strong enough to answer what Poise does, how stagger windows work, and why a melee setup might care. It is not strong enough to justify one copied best-build claim for every weapon, so this page keeps the mechanic separate from hype-driven loadouts.
Compare checked weapon roles
Use weapon pages to decide what DPS estimate belongs in the planner.
BossesFind boss readiness context
Use boss pages for scaling, route notes, and missing exact-data labels.

Rankings stay role-first until exact stat extraction supports stronger claims.
FAQ
Pilgrammed stat questions
Short answers for exact formulas, safe launch data, and planner use.
Are Pilgrammed damage formulas exact here?
No. This page keeps formula boundaries visible and sends exact readiness math to the planner only when checked or player-entered.
Which stat is safe to use at launch?
The boss player-count HP scaling formula is checked, and the official Poise page now gives the site a safer exact term for stagger behavior. Exact weapon DPS and many status-duration tables still need deeper extraction.
Does this page cover Pilgrammed Poise?
Yes. Poise now routes here because the official July 5 wiki page explains the stagger system, decay window, and melee-poise formula boundaries without forcing the site into fake universal build math.
How should players use this page?
Use it as a source boundary before entering DPS, base HP, status plan, and survivability confidence in the Build & Boss Planner.
