The Strength attribute has two main functions:

  1. As a Hero gains strength, the damage dealt by a melee hit/strike increases.
    Specifically, added to each strike is a strength bonus of between 0 and (Hero's strength - current weapon strength requirement);
    as Hero strength, or weapon level, increases, so does the bonus damage.
  2. Strength acts as a “level limit” on weapons and armors, as they can only be used effectively when the Hero has a certain amount of strength.
    Equipping weapons, or armor, that require more strength than the character currently has, will cause attacks and movement to be slowed.

Acquiring Strength[]

Currently, the only way to obtain strength is by drinking a Potion of Strength, or a Potion of Might.
Potions of Strength can be found at any depth of the dungeon, and are pre-identified by the Warrior class.
A Potion of Might is acquired by throwing a Potion of Strength into a Well of Transmutation.
