Morrowind talk:Endurance

Rounded or not

"It is divided by 10 and added to your maximum Health every time you level up."

Is that rounded down, rounded up, or rounded to the nearest int?

Neither. Decimals are retained, but not displayed. --Brf 09:26, 7 June 2008 (EDT)

Huh, Thanks. Good to know. 24.16.156.229 14:25, 7 June 2008 (EDT)

if I have the lady birthsign, will the increase from that affect my total health?

I was thinking of playing as a character with high health but I read that fortify abilities don't and I was wondering if it was the same for the lady. — Unsigned comment by 68.75.109.161 (talk) at 01:19 on 6 June 2013

Bonus endurance from Lady is accounted, if i remember correctly. You can have 85 endurance at the start - base 50 + 10 for favored attribute + 25 from Lady, and you will get 8 health on your first level-up (9 if you'll manage to get x5 on Endurance and upgrade it to 90).

hard vs soft points

It occurs to me that it might be helpful to include information here on whether or not temporary (or 'soft') points of Endurance contribute to your Health increase upon level up. If I'm not mistaken, only 'hard' points of Endurance are factored in. Chill fridge (talk) 02:56, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

You are correct that only your base Endurance is used to calculate Health on level up. This information is already covered on the page, right at the top:

Only your base endurance and the Fortify Endurance from abilities (in the original game, only The Lady Sign) are used to calculate your additional health on level up. For example, if you have 50 base Endurance and +20 from a Fortify Endurance effect other than from The Lady Sign, your total Endurance will be 70; however, you will get only an additional 5 health when you level up. Note that increases to endurance do not retroactively increase hit points, so it is advisable to maximize endurance as soon as possible.
