Effects of strength and weapon skills.

What effect does increasing strength and skill points actually have on damage output? I haven't noticed any difference is it worth my time?

Basically all of them. Obviously not skyrim as far as strength. I am just curious to the numbers of how skill and strength (when not playing skyrim) effect the damage output.

Well the stronger you are, the more force behind hits. And the more skillful you are, the better on how you strike, I guess.

I can't explain the math, but someone on the talk page noted that with an attribute (STR or AGL) of 100, 100 weapon skill, and the weapon over-repaired to 125%, you get a net 20% damage bonus over the weapon's base damage. Which I don't suppose will feel that dramatic unless the weapon has a high base damage to begin with.

Ok that's what I thought because it never seemed to do very much.
