What does Robustness do in Elden Ring?

sportskeeda.com:

Robustness is one of several stats that determine how a player is built in Elden Ring. It is a defensive stat that provides resistance to hemorrhage and frostbite.

The higher the Robustness, the more resistance a player gets.

Robustness is governed by Endurance. Armor and shields come with a certain amount of Robustness that can later be heightened.

Endurance is a main attribute in Elden Ring, as opposed to Robustness, which is simply a designated stat.

Endurance can be leveled up through Runes at a Site of Grace. It is mostly used to enhance stamina and allows players to increase their Equip Load. Apart from this, Endurance directly influences a player's Robustness.

Robustness prevents players from succumbing to hemorrhage and frostbite, which are status effects that cause the player harm. Here are their effects:

Robustness will cause the build-up to the threshold to be slower. If a certain number of points are added to the stat, it can even prevent the effects from building up completely. Again, this is done through Endurance.

Armaments come with a predetermined Robustness, and Endurance points can make them stronger.

Here are some things that can help players achieve high Robustness in Elden Ring:

If players can't find any of these items, they will still get a little bit of Robustness regardless of what gear they are wearing.
