Strength is one of the Stats in Elden Ring. Stats refer to various properties that govern your character's strengths and weaknesses, as well as how they are affected by interactions in and out of combat. Strength primarily affects a player's ability to wield Strength-based Armaments, as well as the damage dealt by such weapons. It is one of the 8 Main Attributes that players can spend Runes on to level up, increasing the Stat's effectiveness and influencing their relative secondary stats. Stats such as Strength are an important aspect of character progression in Elden Ring.
Elden Ring Strength Stat General Information
- Strength (STR) is a Main Attribute that primarily allows the wielding of Strength-based Armaments (Weapons). It also acts as the primary modifier that influences the damage dealt by such weapons.
- Weapons in Elden Ring have a minimum Stat requirement that needs to be met before the weapon can be wielded. Most weapons require investment in either the Strength or Dexterity stats, or a combination of both. For example, Ordovis' Greatsword requires 14 STR and 8 DEX to equip. Some weapons may also require points in Intelligence, Faith or Arcane in order to wield. This is especially true for spell-based weapons such as Glintstone Staves and Sacred Seals.
- Weapons are also given a Scaling Grade denoting the degree to which they scale with an attribute. Each point allocated to the Strength stat increases the damage dealt by weapons with Strength scaling. A weapon with a Strength scaling grade of S will benefit the most from the Strength Attribute, followed by grades A, B, C, D, and E.
- Note that attributes will incur diminishing returns at higher levels, significantly reducing their benefits after a certain point with regards to weapon scaling. This is often referred to as the 'Soft Cap'. A 'Hard Cap' also exists in which additional points in an attribute returns little to no benefit.
- When scaling the attack power of a melee armament, like all stats, Strength soft caps differ depending on the weapon and the damage type being scaled. Scaling on physical damage is often 18/60/80 by default, 20/60/80 on heavy affinities and some unique weapons, and 16/60/80 on quality affinities. Strength has a hard cap of 150 when scaling physical damage. Note that in the rare case that magic, fire, lightning, or holy scales on strength, the soft caps are always 20/50/80 with a hard cap at 99, even when two-handing.
- When scaling the incantation scaling of the Clawmark Seal or the Frenzied Flame Seal, Strength soft caps are 15/30/45.
- Wielding an Armament with two hands will multiply your Strength with that armament by 1.5. If an armament scales with Strength, it will deal more damage when used two-handed. In addition, strength requirements can be met by two-handing. To wield an armament with both hands, press Triangle + L1/R1.
- Strength is the only attribute that can virtually increase beyond 99. This is not shown to the player. Wielding an armament with two hands while at 99 strength will grant 148 virtual strength, equipment does not raise strength above 99.
- Paired Weapons are not given a strength bonus when two-handed due to being dual-wielded instead.
- Note that despite the fact that Starscourge Greatsword is dual-wielded rather than two-handed, the weapon still receives the two-handed strength bonus for non-paired attacks and can be properly wielded below strength requirement when two-handing despite the game showing otherwise. Paired attacks do not receive the two-handed strength bonus.

How to Increase Strength in Elden Ring?
Strength is one of the Main Attributes that players can spend Runes on in order to level up.
- The ability to level up is unlocked after meeting Melina at the Gatefront Site of Grace.
- Leveling up can be done at any Site of Grace once unlocked.
- The amount of Runes required to raise an Attribute increases with each character Level.
- Runes are obtained primarily by defeating Enemies and Bosses. Certain consumables such as the Fringefolk's Rune can also be used to gain a fixed number of runes.
Strength can be increased by using various Strength-boosting Equipment and Effects:
- Omensmirk Mask: Increases Strength by 2 while equipped.
- Imp Head (Fanged): Increases Strength by 2 while equipped.
- Haima Glintstone Crown: Increases Strength by 2 while equipped.
- Horned Warrior Helm: Increases Strength by 5 while equipped at the cost of a 7% reduction to your healing flasks
- Starscourge Heirloom Talisman: Increases Strength by 5 while equipped.
- Radagon's Scarseal/Soreseal Talisman: Increases Strength by 3/5 (respectively) while equipped.
- Godrick's Great Rune: Increases Strength by 5 while active; the effect lasts until death.
- Strength-knot Crystal Tear: Increases Strength by 10 while active; the effect lasts for 3 minutes.
- Oath of Vengeance (Grafted Blade Greatsword weapon Skill): Increases Strength by 5 while active; the effect lasts for 60 seconds.
Elden Ring Level Progression for Strength
- Improving Strength grants a small boost to Physical Defense, reducing damage taken from sources of Physical Damage, including enemy attacks and special abilities. Boosting Strength beyond 99 does not increase Physical Defense.
- +0.33 Physical Defense per level from 1 to 30 Strength
- +0.5 Physical Defense per level from 31 to 40 Strength
- +0.75 Physical Defense per level from 41 to 60 Strength
- +0.25 Physical Defense per level from 61 to 99 Strength

"Strength is easy mode." Ah, I see, that's why start-up and recovery of all "great"-type weapons had to be buffed pretty much every single patch. You know, the patch notes for every version of this game are publically available. You could actually take a look at those before spouting uninformed nonsense.
All the magic users angry that this is the hardest way to play the game in here trying to gaslight people into saying it's the easiest. You people need therapy

The problem with strength is, that too many people believe, that is the only stat that u really need. But like all unbalanced builds, also this one is too much enemy-dependant. If u can quickly get the boss hit a couple of times- yr at home. Otherwise...

The softcap info is incorrect, about it being 20/60/80, while it is correct that damage falloff begins around these breakpoints when 2-handing, what it ISNT telling you, is that the softcaps when 2-handing are different depending on the scaling level.
A weapon with only a B scaling in strength will hit its softcap at 54, and youll get very little benefit for going further after that, but if you have a weapon with A scaling while heavy infused, that 54 will provide a MUCH higher boost, AND youll get more bang for your buck beyond 54 strength also, and going to 80 for a weapon with A-scaling is preferable, and if you have an S-scaling strength weapon, then you can actually safely go to 99 strength if you really wish, but going to 99 with a C-B or even an A-scaling weapon may not be worth it, would be much better to invest your points elsewhere.

- iron whetblade allows you to put any ash of war
- red-hot whetblade gives you fire damage, the most useful element
- two-handed bonus
- physical defense bonus
- heavy infusion better even for traditional dex weapons
- insane stance-breaking potential on strength armaments
- essentially reaches softcap at 54, allowing you to invest in endurance for armor
Strength is the best stat.

Yeah, in comparison to dex, arcane etc strength isn't really loved by fextra.

For whatever reason strength builds feel so boring in this one, which I could never say about previous From games. I’ve done dozens of builds and I’ve only done pure strength once
- Anonymous
There are two types of strength builds:
1. The best player you've ever seen. Has every boss's stance value memorized and will dodge everything perfectly. They can easily solo the boss.
2. Room temperature IQ Greatsword user. Named their character "Guts" and has 9 vigor. Will immediately die, but rejoice, you now get to fight the boss with more HP.
There's no in-between.

Strength stance breaks bosses too easily, literally easy mode. Dex is too fast, literally easy mode. Int is too spammy, literally easy mode. Faith gives too many buffs, literally easy mode. Arc makes bleed too strong, literally easy mode. Take my advice and level nothing, chop off both arms, gouge your eyes out so you can’t see, break both legs, get permanent brain damage so you can’t play properly and delete the game so you can play it like a real man

I know this is a weird thing to say, but I kinda wish that having a higher strength stat would change the way you hold weapons. like great swords for instance where they could've had it be held like a straight sword, and im not saying it should change the move set or anything like that, but a simple cosmetic change could've been a nice way of showing your character being strong, but I can understand it is kind of a pointless and niche thing to have in the first place.

this stat is easy mode, any weapon + lions claw trivializes the entire game and if you disagree your objectively wrong

I used to play sorcery and incantation builds, then I tried strength and it was total easy mode compared to spells. Yes, spells are easy if you're new to the game, but once you learn, strength is far easier with dex a little behind it. I don't have to split my flask between health/fp. I don't have to worry about running out of fp so i can't cast. i don't have to manage 2 flasks. I can tank hits with my phys resist from str and my armor. i can stagger enemies. I can parry enemies. I hit radahn 4 times and he died to my giant crusher, others can kill him in 1. i kill other enemies i would have avoided with spells. I'm no longer a glass canon. All the 1 shot kill videos are melee builds. there is no way I'd go back to sorcery again, I'll stick to melee, the true easy mode. Melee people want to say sorcery is easy mode so they can feel like they're elite, but really, melee is easier for anyone who isn't a noob.

so if you give a katana a heavy infusion, is it going to stagger like a great hammer? :)

Strength is probably the best it's ever been with the addition of stance-breaking and jump attacks. Enjoy, my friends.

I don't know who decided to start the lie that Strength is bad in Elden Ring but they should be charged with slander. Physical defense boost resulting in the defacto tankiest build type in the game, 1.5 multiplier on two-handing, access to the highest Stance damage weapons in the game for easy and frequent ripostes, holds a practical monopoly on weapons with natural Poise, and if all of that somehow isn't enough, you can now make SPELLS scale with this. A shocking number of 'dex' weapons do better damaged Heavy Infused and two-handed with the same Strength investment, including the Nagakiba. Nothing is stopping you from running fast Strength weapons, or power-stanced Strength weapons or whatever else you feel like. Might not match Arcane or Intelligence for PVE Cheesiness but if you try to tell me this is worse than Dex, I am laughing you out of the room.

Probably gonna get my head chopped off for this, but I think Dexterity and Strength should've been combined and made into one stat called "Proficiency" or something. They're already basically the same thing since both focus on physical damage and (mostly) infusable weapons. Fire and Lightning affinities should've been given/made exclusive to Faith instead. I also think more consumables and Ashes of War should've scaled with that new, unified stat to give the melee play style a couple more options.

Str is honestly really good right now whether you go pure Str or Str/Fth, Str/Int, or Str/Arc you get pretty good weapon variety. A lot of Dex non somber weapons can even be used on str builds since with the two handed bonus you still can get pretty good AR. When set to heavy you can get decent damage with almost any weapon. Str can range from colossal weapons to even smaller weapons like daggers or curved swords. With 15 Dex and the rest in Str you can use almost any non somber weapon. Get to 18 Dex for greatbows if you want to use them. Since you only need 54 str to meet hardcap when two handed you can put those extra points in endurance for heavy armor or into other stats to use weapons like starscourge, Marias executioner sword, etc. I think that aside from certain somber weapons and casting speed (Max can be reached with just Radagon’s icon and azur glintstone staff on int builds with no Dex) that Str just outclasses Dex in the sheer amount of options you have at your disposal. When you get good at hardswapping then str just gets even better.

Please update Oath of Vengeance note. It currently says the buff lasts for 30s, but as of update 1.0.7 the buff lasts for 60s.

99 Strength with +25 Giants Crusher only nets 996 AR.
That's ridiculously low. Strength 100% needs to be buffed.

You gain approx +5% Innate Flat Physical Defense , just by having 30 Strength upgraded to 40 Strength in Leveling Attributes. ( The Best cap being 40-to-60 Strength lending you further 15% Innate physical Defense , as in Flat Defense not the Gear Absorbtion Defense Stat ). And from 10STR upto 30STR you gain about +6.6% Flat Physical Defense overall.... This innate Flat Defense does stack with the Armor Defense Absorbtion Gear set-up aswell as Aura and Body Buffs... Keep that in mind this Attribute is mainly good for facing mostly Physical dealing enemies PvE and in PvP. Aside from Scaling STR weapons ofc... That's why you see many Pure Mage builds get 1 shot lol :D

Strength in Elden Ring is a pretty Essential Attribute honestly... I'd say not just mainly for Weapons and Scaling etc.... But rather the Defense it offers is very High when leveling up between Soft-to-Hard Cap in Strength Attribute. Having from 30STR atleast is essential just as Endurance is for lending you Solid Physical Defense... So i'd say even if you are mainly a Dex , INT or Faith build... Strength comes pretty useful later on specialy around NG+ runs for how Bosses and enemies hit harder.

Does 2 handing any weapon with slightly strength scaling boost damage? For example, 2 handing a keen nagakiba?
quality builds should be renamed quantity due to how many damn stat points you need to get decent damage.

strength should scale how fast you pull back bows/crossbows/arbalests/whatever. it would be fitting since dex scales the cast speed of magic

You sure you strength builds aren't just trying to overcompensate for something?

You know whats really chad? Not shaming and ****-talking others based on what stats they level, and what kind of build they find fun, and not going "HURR DURR STRONGTH=CHAD, AND YOU ARE DUMB BETA VIRGIN CRINGE IF YOU ARE DEX!" (OR ANYTHING ELSE FOR THAT MATTER), idc if it's a meme, its become extremely stale and annoying.

How much strength does an astrologist with a great epee (frost)?

Why are dex and strength users always at each other's throats?
