WHAT HAPPENED TO STR

[Estellios]

STR currently reflects consistence on the numbers you get while attack power raises your peak damage i.e. raising your max damage you can do. To sum that up, atk > str if you're trying to boost your top end damage until a certain point, str just makes your top end more consistent and less random. I think I explained that right...

This actually helps out a lot more than people might realize too. A balance of STR and attack for potency and consistency seems to be key (same with INT and magic attack). If you hit for 1000 1/5 of the time and 700 the rest of the time, someone who is hitting for 850 every hit is doing a lot more damage than you.

Yes I also noticed that mnd affects healing potency... while str does nothing to stats.
