    There's now 2 different 3 day DEX buffs in the game, but not one single 3 day STR buff at all in the game. Did this get missed or something?

    There are actually 3:
    • +30 dexterity, -10 strength
    • +45 dexterity, -10 strength
    • +20 dexterity, +20 damage avoidance

    The lack the 3 day INT or STR buffs are surprising. But also surprising is that there is no bard buff that boosts INT or Magical Crit Rate. Maybe then you will see parties that are not just full of archers.

    I would love to see even more STR things out there but point for point STR is already the stat we can get highest (400+int manageable, 500+dex manageable, 650+ str manageable)

    that being said, yes please Looking to break 700STR

    :p

    (not saying getting stats to those levels is cheap or low xp cost)

    This is one of the reasons that I feel like there does not need a Strength buff in the game, at least not right now. With the current Powercreep everything offers, an other Strength buff would simply blow it out of proportion, especially with how high Strength can be brought up.

    @Anpu let's not forget that You can get Strength from several passive sources that don't exist for Dex or Int, without counting the sun innate because there is a Dex counterpart in the moon tree, you have :

    Heavy Armor : Offers an extra 10-15 points of strength with relatively low exp investment, and Inner Strength which gives 25-30 Strength for a short(ish) duration
    Earth : Offers an extra 10-15 points of strength from an innate as well.

    So with these 3 things, you can push an extra 60 points of strength with average exp investment which you can not get for Dexterity or intelligence. This justifies the 3 day blessings for Dexterity, and Attunement justifies the lack of Intelligence buffs.

    Answer is more simple in my opinion: STR is just more efficient than DEX boosting damage and a bit of health.
    Your avg dmg will probably get higher with +30 STR than it would with +30 DEX. So the respective blessings would be something in the lines of:
    +20 STR, -10 DEX;
    +10 STR, +10 avoidance.
