Combat Mechanics
Accuracy
Accuracy is the stat that affects how often you hit your enemy. Accuracy is determined by many things, but your secondary stat is one of the most determining factor. Warriors have Wisdom as their secondary, Archers have Strength, and Mages have Agility. Equips also can raise your accuracy via misc stats or just some of your stats. You can see your Accuracy by going in your inventory and looking at the stats page on the left. The number can be translated to a percentage by looking in Menu -> Afk Info when you are in an area with enemies and not skilling. On the top, it will say what you are doing, and what you are doing it to (Choppin Oak Logs, Mining Copper Ore, Fighting Frogs, etc). On the bottom there is a grey bar with a green bar in it under "Accuracy Rating". Every enemy has a number that your accuracy needs to exceed in order to be able to hit, and a number that when your accuracy reaches means you can hit all the time. The green words right above the bar will tell you your percentage; for example, if you are fighting Frogs and have 2 out of the 3 accuracy for 100%, you will hit 50% of the time.
Note: You need at least 5% hit chance to hit, anything lower will equal 0%.
Damage
Damage is how much health a monster loses when you manage to hit them. This is affected by your main stat (Warriors have Strength, Archers have Agility, and Mages have Wisdom) or the Weapon Power from your equipped weapon. Again, you can see your damage in your inventory on the stats page. You may notice that there is two numbers; the first is your minimum damage and the second your max. When you hit, you deal a random number between those two (inclusive). Once the enemy is at or below 0 health, they die leaving you their treasure.
Health
Health is how much damage you can take from enemies, before falling flat on your face and needing to respawn. You can Insta Res once a day, or you can respawn at town for free. Health is always handled by your Strength stat no matter your class. You take damage from monsters depending on your Defence and the monsters attack. You can heal by equipping Food, some foods heal more than others but all have a 30 second cooldown.
Mana
Mana is used for activating abilities; you know, those things you put on that little bar at the bottom of the screen. It regens passively over time at a rate of 1 for every 100 maximum Mana you have. Mana and the rate it regens at is affected by Wisdom, various talents, potions and other shenanigans. Running out of Mana is no big deal, but you will get yelled at if you don't have enough and you try doing something you need more Mana for.
Defence
Defence determines how much damage you take from enemies, enough will negate all damage. You can check your number in the stats page again, and it may or may not be influenced by your secondary stat (i dont remember so if you know you can edit this out and fix what i just said) and your equipment. When you have more than a monster's attack, you just wont receive damage from that monster. The less you have compared to that attack, however, the more damage you take.
Loot
When you kill an enemy, it may drop an item. If you have the card for the enemy, you can see their loot tables. The way they work is when you kill it, it rolls for every item on the main table. If it rolls a 1 on any of those, it drops that item. If it rolls a 1 on "Rare Drop", it then rolls for every item on the rare drop table. Then if it rolls a "Mega Rare Drop" It rolls for the items in that table. If it rolls a rare, but fails all the items, it just wont drop anything from the table. It rolls by a random number between 1 and the number it lists (ex Spore Cap from Green Spores is a 1 in 5, so it rolls a random number between 1 and 5 inclusive). Most loot actually has a use, so be careful selling. Every monster has a special drop that only they can drop, so watch out for those. Coins may also drop. Having 100 Bronze coins in your inventory is automatically converted into 1 Silver coin. And when you reach 100 Silver coins they turn into 1 Gold coin automatically. Don't ask what happens when you get 100 Gold coins; if you're reading this, you're too poor for that.
Survivability
This only matters when you go Offline to get Afk Gains. It's the combined number of your Defence, Foods, and Health, and represents how fast you die when Afk. The lower your Survivability, the less gains you get, so you want to make sure you're ready to grind there before you leave for 6 hours. If you have enough Defence that you don't take damage, your Survivability will always be 100%, and it will be harder to change the number the more health you have.
Mastery
Mastery determines you minimum damage, base mastery is 35% and it caps at 80%. You can have more mastery through Alchemy, cards, talents and Efaunt Ribcage (on v1.14).
The calculation is as follows:
minDmg = mastery * maxDmg
You'll have 35 minimum damage if your max damage is 100 and your mastery is 35%.
