The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' skill increases the player's [[Combat#Melee Max Hit|Max Hit]] with melee weapons. Max Hit determines the maximum potential damage which can be dealt on a successful attack before damage reduction is accounted for.  

Strength experience can be earned by using the Slash attack style during [[combat]]. 0.4 XP is awarded per point of damage done to enemies. This can be increased by 4% by equipping the {{ItemIcon|Gold Emerald Ring}}, and by using the global skill XP bonuses provided by {{PetIcon|Pyro}}, {{ItemIcon|Firemaking Skillcape}}, or [[Agility#Obstacles|Agility obstacles]]. {{Skill|Fishing}} in the Barbarian Fishing area grants Strength experience as well.

Raising strength to level 99 will unlock the {{ItemIcon|Strength Skillcape}} for purchase from the [[Shop]]. Equipping the [[Strength Skillcape]] will provide a +20 melee strength bonus.

The [[Skillcapes|skillcape]] can be purchased from the store for {{GP|1000000}} after the player reaches {{SkillReq|{{PAGENAME}}|99}}.

The [[Pets|pet]] can be unlocked by doing any action that provides Strength XP, excluding [[Fishing|Barbarian Fishing]].
