From the SWG-Manual, Sextion 2.1 The Nine Attributes

Quickness (Action Drain Rate): Controls how rapidly a player' s actions drain the Action pool. A character with a high Quickness can perform more Action-related special moves or use Action-related abilities (like Burst Running) more often than a character with a low Quickness.

The Special attacks for Pistol primarily drain the Action pool. Having alot of Quickness makes Action regen faster, letting you get off more Pistol Specials.

Although this is clearly spelled outduring the newbie tutorial, no in-game info exists. However, here is how it breaks down.


HAM is broken down into three groups of three.


The first component is your total pool. Example: Health 1000


The second component is how efficiently you use the stat pool during special moves. Example: higher Strength uses fewer points of Health when executing a move requiring a Health cost.


The third component is regeneration rate. Self-explanatory. Higher means faster regen rate.


This applies the same for the other HAM components.


-- Action Quickness Stamina


-- Mind Focus Willpower


So just remember one, two and three -- 1) how much 2) how efficient 3) how fast (you regen).
