High ST is an investment, but it pays for itself in hit points and offense.
Yeah, ST is incredibly cheap for the dual purpose it pulls... but it is also so very limited in how you can apply it to the game world.

Jednessa can probably take damage all day with the DR reduction from her armor.
She doesn't have any armor. But as a Barbarian and an Ogre she has access to buying stupid amounts of DR (Thick Skin). Buck naked she's probably the heaviest "armored" meatshield we've got in game right now (at least until Gorgath comes back) at DR 10/12 (Everything/Crushing; Thick Skin).

I'll add... Enough DX to defend and enough HT to stay conscious are the other required pieces to really be effective here.
Yeeeeeaaaahhhhhh.... sacrifices had to be made to hit a 30 ST.
quote:
Still, a wrecking ball like Jednessa is ALWAYS welcome as long as you have someone willing to play them.
I never go for "brute" types. But I saw the massive DR and ST build possibilities and said "Hey, a Wrestler would be fun, let's play with having to touch all the horrible hazardous things in a dungeon!"

And, there is the SnuSnu...
Someday her prince will come and Northport will recoil in horror at the tremendous music they make. Or it will be leveled by the foreplay fight. Probably both.
