Raw physical strength. A high Strength is good for physical characters. Modifies: Hit Points, Melee Damage, and Carry Weight. Also you suffer [[hit chance]] penalty if you don't have enough Strength to handle your weapon, though this can be countered with increased weapon skill.

'''Note:''' Your Strength can be permanently increased by 1 point with an [[Hypertrophy Accelerator|implant]], unless it is already 10, the maximum.

==Tips==

Higher Strength is beneficial to all character builds. Tank builds often have a strength of 5 to allow for [[Adrenaline Rush]]. Pugilists often have ST 7 or more. Low strength results in a decreased carry weight, and slightly lower health. Check the Strength requirement for whichever weapon you intend to use. For each point of Strength under a weapon's ST requirement, your Hit Chance is penalized by 20%. However, with no level cap, you can get weapon skill high enough to compensate for low ST. Add drugs and possibly a ST implant, and even a sniper can have proper Hit Chance at max range with base ST 1.

Strength is very important to miners and crafters as well, because they benefit from a high [[Carry Weight]].
