STR

Strength is an offensive stat for both melee and ranged attacks. STR is associated with the Fire element.

Offensive

STR directly impacts attack and ranged attack:

• For two-handed weapons: STR increases Attack at a rate of 75% (3 Attack per 4 STR).
• For one-handed weapons (main hand): STR increases Attack at a rate of 75% (3 Attack per 4 STR).
• For one-handed weapons (offhand): STR increases Attack at a rate of 50% (1 Attack per 2 STR).
• For hand-to-hand weapons: STR increases Attack at a rate of 62.5% (5 Attack per 8 STR).
• For ranged weapons: STR increases Ranged Attack at a rate of 75% (3 Attack per 4 STR).

Strength plays an integral role in physical damage calculations, particularly in the variable: fSTR, whereby the STR of a character is compared to the VIT of its enemy, resulting in a bonus/penalty.
