Original Game Codex TextWhere Attributes improve a character’s baseline health, damage and healing, Ratings serve to increase a character’s combat abilities in a more targeted way that suits the effectiveness and playstyle of an individual build or role.Critical Rating: Increases the crit chance of Melee, Ranged, Force and Tech damage and healing effects. Builds based on achieving critical hits and heals, particularly those whose crits generate additional buffs, benefit greatly from Critical Rating.Surge Rating: Increases the magnitude of all crits, both damage and healing. Builds based on achieving critical hits and heals, particularly those whose crit magnitude is improved with skills, benefit greatly from Surge Rating.Accuracy Rating: Increases the chance of successfully hitting an enemy with a Melee, Ranged, Force or Tech effect. Builds based on lightsaber and blaster combat, particularly playstyles focused on fighting higher toughness and higher level targets, benefit greatly from Accuracy Rating.Power Rating: Increases the damage and healing dealt by Melee, Ranged, Force and Tech effects. Builds based on reliable and sustained damage and healing output benefit greatly from Power Rating.Alacrity Rating: Increases the activation and channel speed of abilities. Builds based on activated and channeled abilities benefit greatly from Alacrity Rating. Alacrity Rating does not affect instant abilities.Defense Rating: Increases the chance to defend against Melee and Ranged attacks. Builds based on survivability, particularly those who favor avoidance, benefit greatly from Defense Rating.Shield Rating: Increases the chance to shield a Melee or Ranged attack with your personal shield generator. Builds based on survivability, particularly those who favor steadily lessened incoming damage, benefit greatly from Shield Rating. Shield Rating has no effect on characters not equipped with a personal shield generator.Absorption Rating: Increases the amount of damage negated when an attack is shielded with your personal shield generator. Builds based on survivability, particularly those who favor steadily lessened incoming damage, benefit greatly from Absorption Rating.

Combat Ratings |
Appears to be bugged, as everyone I’ve ever talked to remains at 12/13 game rules, even at level 50 with everything completed.
Strange thing about it, on my BH and Trooper i have 13/14 lacking this one…but on sith inquistor max is /13…one way or another bugged.
where u manage to get the item modification with your trooper? in which workbench?
I’m pretty sure that smugglers / agents and troopers / bounty hunters get a codex entry for energy cells; that’s why they have x/14.
As a trooper im still 12/14 and i cant get the item modification, i tried in 3 workbenches and nothing
To get the item modification codex entry there is actually a small plate on a stand, similar to the other statue and world lore items on your starter planet. That is what actually yields the “Item Modification” Codex Entry.
It should have given you a quest initially to do that when you got your first weapon, but it could be bugged..
The codex entry for the soldier is bugged, as you don’t receive the quest when you get your first orange item.
So buying an augment or mod, etc. with “Shield Rating” will have positive results with offhand Generator? Was told on Shield and not generator or focus, but I do not know for sure. Thank you very much.
Looks like this was removed from the status bars sometime recently. Codex status bar lists only 13 entries now.
