Back in LU38, SoE made many common "effects" into "stats" to clean up the examine windows (Regeneration, Flowing Thought, etc). They are now listed just below the green stats, but in the same blue color as the list of spell effects, hence the term "blue stats." With the launch of Rise of Kunark, it became clear why SoE made this change. They wanted to make it easier to add these effects to items, as many quest rewards and loot have these "blue stats" on them. We attempted various methods to merge this new fact into , but none were really that effective/simple.
