[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 5075679, member: 59057"] I believe 21 Strength is not worth a lot except maybe for a featwith the axe... I would maybe fill in some gaps: Level 5: Gauntlets of Bulls strength Str 16 Level 10: Gauntlets of Ogre strength Str 18 Level 15: Belt of Hill Giant strength Str 21 (yes it has 21, but who cares if its 20 or 21^^) Level 20: Belt of Fire Giant strength Str 23 Level 25: Belt of Frost Giant strength st 25 (marauder!) Level 26: Belt of Stone Titan strength 26 (still lower than an epic fighter would probably have since you get +8 strength per level and most probably +2 for an epic destiny... this opens up some other destinies) So you have a smooth increase at reasonable levels, not overpowering and not underpowered... if you somhow feel that 26 is too high, begin with level 6 and leave out the last one, but this would mean 18 Str is already a paragon item... i believe such items do no har to the system and enforcing warriors to have at least a 15 in their main stat would be reasonable. And I would also add, that the strength gained by such an item doesn´t qualify you for feats. [/QUOTE]
