Gear stuff is iffy.
We already have to be frightened of the sanctuary/other debuffs if we don't want to tell our momentum bye bye, unless we invest into the special talento.
Nerfing the talent would mean builds that don't give a flying fuck about str (mage that doesnt abuse fire field effect ) would still have to invest a decent amount of str, which in theory makes sense if the mage is wearing heavy armor, but it'd put them in not too good of a spot in terms of amount of points invested.

Granting bonus hit/evade would have to be careful, since another possibly large boost to either could whip out problems of kind "If you're a tank, you can't ever dream to hit those dodge stackers."

Since the thread is appearantely to encourage more people to build STR as main stat instead of using other stats for damage, since the fire field effect and autohits of certain overused class appearantely isn't enough, i dont think equipment having weight would be a good way to aproach this, since it's an arrow to the knee to people not focusing on STR at all, rather than giving those that actualy do a pat on the back.

But,I disagree with more raw power for reasons mentioned by Sly and in few of the previous threads/posts.

It also occurs to me, I remember seeing a very cheap (and as far as I know, craftable) weapon that has 110% STR scaling. Now that's a nice scaling.
Fist weapon with 105%, I'm honestly not sure if there's weapons with purely one stat in such numbers. And then there's alot of mixing. Maybe the issue lies in the actual weapon scaling, since it'd make sense for melee weapons to actualy rely on str most, if not all of the time. I remember specificaly picking a katana with the lowest STR scaling to circumvent the need for it.
There you have it, motivation to grab str if you're actualy adding force n' momentum to weapon againts an opponent.
