Fairly sure that on RoR, str 1: 1.5 melee power, i.e. stack str till softcap, and then use mp coz str doesn't offer as much after a certain point (when its orange).

Mp doesn't offer inherent bonuses str does (against defenses, etc)

Melee power is equivalent to strength for pure damage, but does not have the other effects of strength. It's a way to circumvent the strength cap (1080?).

Does melee power bypass toughness ?
