For a 2HQ Knight or a Crit Sin using Katar-type weapons, is STR any good? I know the STR bonus is gone so now I'm not sure what exactly STR brings to the table. AGI is great, some DEX is good for accuracy, and everyone knows LUK is strong. How about STR?
Is STR useful?

STR still gives bonus based on weapon damage.

It's still important for melee classes' damage (less so than pre-Renewal) but the biggest thing is that you don't have to aim for 10-STR increments with your builds anymore.

STR is king for Knights, period. If you don't have STR you're doing it wrong. Also, you may want to consider using daggers over katar, the damage potential from double attacks combined with twice the damage augmenting cards is quite enviable.

STR - http://irowiki.org/wiki/Stats
Strength: This stat affects the "melee" physical power of the character, allowing it to deal damage even if no weapons are equipped if a sufficient amount of STR is invested. The STR value is also multiplied to the Weapon ATK value for even more damage increase.
When using "melee-type" weapons such as Axes, Books, Daggers, Katars, Knuckles, Maces, Spears or when Bare Handed, every point of STR provides:
Status ATK +1
Weapon ATK +0.5% (only on Base Weapon ATK, and this bonus is pseudo-elemental)
When using "ranged-type" weapons such as Bows, Guns, Instruments and Whips, every 5 points of STR provide:
Status ATK +1
Every point of STR provides:
Weight Limit +30
Decreases Vacuum Extreme duration by 0.04s.
STR specific:
ATK
Weight Limit (base stat only)
