Stat growth in Dragon's Dogma is influenced by Vocation. Upon leveling up, each stat will gain an increase in a pattern determined by the current Vocation of the character. The stat's increase vary for each vocation in a way that mostly benefits their play style and continued use. It is worth noting that the offensive and defensive potential of each Vocation is not just reliant on stats, as the Armor, Weapons and Skills available differ for each Vocation.

Additionally, there is a stat calculator available that can be used to help plan character growth.

Lv10+	37	15	4	4	2	1
Lv100+	15	5	1	3	0	0

Note: The Strategy guide stat gain for warrior Lv 100+ is incorrect. The hp gain lv 100+ is 5 hp not 15 hp. This may be a bug but as of July 17, 2012 this has not been changed.

Note that, these hybrid vocations not always been restricted to Arisen only. They also seen used by Bandits or Troops sometimes. Example; Magick Archer was used by Bandits.

To be correct, these hybird vocations are actually exclusive to "Humans" since Arisen and otthers are all Humans, not like Pawns.
