Thank you for admitting you are guessing. Please stop telling people STR will give a significant DPS boost during the leveling process. You have admitted that you do not know this.
I am willing to review any evidence you are willing to provide, if you choose to do so. If it shows I am wrong, I will be happy to admit I am wrong.

My guess is based on extensive reading, past parsing, first hand experience and the evidence presented in this thread. Particularly mr turtle.
You’re throwing out the baby with the bath water.
Earlier you demanded i provided full code, arguing it would be trivial. Telling me (again) to shut up cos I didn’t (and won’t) is a bit extreme. I don’t have p99’s server side stuff and a big part of these discussions is to look at the limited evidence and work together to draw conclusions.
JSYK, when people say stats don’t matter they are being hyperbolic. Basically making your point that a dps increase from str will be small (just like the benefit of 20 int imo).
That said, plenty of evidence has been given for the benefit:
1) improvement to max hit formula
2) improvement to di multiplier formula
3) (flawed) parses showing 4.3% increase (I’m looking forward to doing my own investigations).
We’ve discussed the widely held belief that str impacts attack and in turn how likely the damage roll will do well (something you seem to refute?)
We’ve discussed how damage is normally distributed and the curve can be skewed left or right (take a look at your turtle logs)
1-2 alone mean the improvement is statistically significant. If you are using a different definition of significant please define it, and argue against that for how much more significant help 20 int would be.
