Strength, Is it Really Worth It? - Guild Wars Forums

According to my Guildmates maxing Strength to 12 helps a lot in PvP. But when i take off strength, i don't see it doing more damage, but i see it doing more on critical hits. I'm a W/Mo and I am not sure whether to switch my Strength points to something else, either Tactics/Healing/Smiting/Protection.

Could someone enlighten me on what to choose and why?

12 points in strength will give you 12% armour penetration, as well as boosting your strength skills. It basically depends on the skills you're using.

I can see you joined a little late, so I think you missed the large debates in April on Strength vs Tactics, etc. How it goes iwth Judges INsight etc etc...

There has been numerous threads on this already, with numercial and statistical analysis in this forum. They might be archieved and somewhat hard to find, but they are there. I think there is a writrup in one of the guru pages too.

I bet you will find about 500 post replies on it if you do a search....
