I presume they are based on trained stats, if not then I presumed wrongly.
If they are based on trained stats, why aren't they based on Trained stats + bonuses?
And if they are based on trained stats, why not have the trained value (like for the HP rankings) be displayed behind it?
Perhaps some questions only Jonathan knows but perhaps more people have ideas about this :)

You only see the values for those stats where you could inspect a char and see the values. And since bonuses depend on items equipped, I imagine it would vary far too much whereas trained stats are stored in the database.

It is the same theory as to why AC is not ranked. To easily changed due to items and too much server time/resources used.

Ranger is most correct, having to update numbers based on equipment worn would be too much work for the server.

Hmmm, but ST and DX are also easily changed now due to items, yet they do get the attribute along with the ranking list.
But perhaps it is too heavy for the server to keep on calculating the other rankings along with the attribute...
