Except we have tried to get STR in via scalings, and it hasn't made the stat any better. Buffing weapons that have majority STR (which usually offer more damage than utility to begin with) isn't going to make STR more appealing; not when the outliers offer that much without forcing points into STR.

The issue here is that STR can be very appealing for a lot of reasons, but mostly that currently it is the highest scaling stat in the game with dragon king's set and high base amounts from certain races, it can very well decide some of the highest scaled weapon powers anyone can ever achieve, giving STR an additional feature (especially one relating to damage) on top of this can lead to catastrophic results.

The current issue is that some things don't make STR feel worthwhile, for example like the B/W talents that can make the need for building STR for your armor and/or weapons totally irelevant, not to mention the strongest armor type in the game is unarmored, which tend to be light and even used in tons of STR builds themselves.

I just see no need to give STR a buff personally, that's my argument.
