[QUOTE="Victim, post: 3431787, member: 78"] d8 + 4 vs d8 is roughly twice as much damage. Plenty noticeable. Even at max power, it's still a difference of 50% - like watching a car drive past at 60 mph vs 40. Moreover, STR will often be noticeable as part of the character's physique. Higher level characters will probably also develop a repuation. When you have all manner of magic buffs, you can just as easily say that that advantage of any other stat is minimal. Might as well go with strength in that case. :) Monks go 2d10 at level 20, not d20. Across the 5 attacks a level 20 monk can make (without assistance), that 6 point difference in damage could add up to quite a bit. Of course, the monk had better be doing more damage than that at level 20 people are supposed to realize he's actually participating in the fight. [/QUOTE]
