Damage
This value is added to the wielder's base accuracy to determine the overall accuracy of the weapon's attacks; the base chance to hit is approximately 84% plus half of this value, modified by the target's evasion; a character gains an extra hit for every 32 points of accuracy they have
Hit Rate
The chance of each attack with this weapon being a critical hit (unless the attack misses); critical hits add double the character's attack rating to their normal damage (this extra damage ignores defense)

Each physical hit you take will have its damage reduced by this amount; the defense value of multiple pieces of armor is cumulative
Defense
All types of armor (except most shields) incur a penalty to the wearer's evasion rate; each two points of evasion lost result in a 1% smaller chance to evade attacks; multiple penalties are cumulative
Evasion
Any elemental resistances this armor provides; resistance to an element drops the base hit chance for spells and special attacks of that element to 0, and those attacks cause half damage
