Dungeons II Item Stats: Where to See Damage and HP
In Minecraft Dungeons II (Minecraft Dungeons 2), players say items show almost no numbers: weapons and armor show item level and abilities, artifacts show cooldown and soul cost, and your actual totals appear in blue above the equipment window. If you want to know whether a new item is better, equip it and watch that panel. Five separate Steam threads complain that this is unclear. Mojang has not commented.
What the item shows now
One poster listed the difference from the first game: Dungeons 1 showed a damage number, power, attack speed and area bars on melee weapons, and health on armor; Dungeons II reportedly shows item level for melee and ranged weapons (plus ammo for ranged), item level for armor, and item level plus cooldown and cost for artifacts.
Another player explained the logic: stats are not on the gear but computed from item level. For armor, the game combines the item levels of all four pieces to produce your armor value (marked with a shield icon). They and others called this a poor way to show stats in an action RPG.
What players are asking for
- Damage per weapon and health per armor piece in the tooltip (three threads).
- A clearer compare view; one review called the compare option nearly useless and described a trial-and-error approach.
- Numbers for artifact effects. A player said the Grindstone artifact seems to multiply weapon damage at least fivefold and bosses die in seconds on hard difficulty, and that showing the multiplier would reveal whether it is overtuned. This is one player’s impression.
How to judge gear for now
- Equip and check the blue stats panel above the equipment window.
- Keep an eye on item level first; players say it drives the calculation.
- Test artifacts against a boss or a group and compare kill time, since there are no listed multipliers.
- See weapons and armor for the listed items and their statuses.
What we could not verify
The exact formula, whether hidden values can be revealed, and whether Mojang plans to add tooltips. We will update this page after we play the PC build. Related: emerald cap and beginner tips.
FAQ
Where are my damage and health stats in Minecraft Dungeons II?
Players say your overall stats are shown in blue above the equipment window, not on each item. An item shows its item level and, for artifacts, cooldown and soul cost.
Why doesn't a weapon show its damage number?
Players say the game calculates stats from item level (for armor, from all four pieces) rather than listing numbers on the item. Five separate Steam threads complain about it, and none reports an official reason or a setting to change it.
How do I compare two weapons?
Equip the item and look at the stats panel above the equipment window, or trial and error. A reviewer called the in-game compare option almost useless. This is a player opinion.
Will Mojang add stats to tooltips?
