Minecraft:Strength

Strength is a status effect which increases melee attack damage.

Effect

Template:IN, melee damage under the Strength effect can be found through the equation <math>BaseDamage\times1.3^{level}+{1.3^{level}-1\over0.3}</math>, where <math>BaseDamage</math> is the default damage of whatever weapon or tool is used to attack.<ref>Background for this new equation: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GtZ9ceTfVGbEkKkbZAfzpKKGk2FQ0FwmeUyw5ja14B8/edit?usp=sharing</ref> Example for an Minecraft:iron sword:

• Normal: Template:Hp
• Level 1: Template:Hp
• Level 2: Template:Hp
