Yeah, I went 20 STR on Danth (a Human Paladin) when the server opened in 2009 and never had cause to regret that choice. Bronze and Fine Plate is heavy! As a general rule of thumb, with non-twink characters I dislike having less than a minimum of 100 strength on a melee, although I'll tolerate down to about 90 if small armor is an option (ie, Dark Elf Shadow Knights). High Elves and Erudites, with a practical maximum of 85 strength each, are in my opinion slightly inadequate as Paladins without some twink gear. The Erudites in particular--being limited to medium armor--tend to lead hard lives if they don't have outside help. Going all stamina is a lot easier nowadays when we can buy +5 or +10 STR items in East Commons for a pittance.
