Forte is a Rating that directly contributes to the Total percentage of certain stats based on the character's Class and Paragon Path.

Value

Half of the total Forte percentage will be added to the character's primary stat based on role (Power for DPS, Defense for Tanks, and Divinity/Soulweave/Performance Regen for Healers). The remaining Forte percentage will be split evenly between two secondary stats.
