System Shock 2 Hints
Strength
For every STR point, you gain three extra inventory slots, until all of the potential slots in your MFD become available. Higher strength also increases the damage that you can do with melee weapons, like the wrench. Most importantly, some weapons and armor have minimum strength requirements. In particular, some Heavy Weapons have high strength requirements -- the fusion cannon requires STR 4 and heavy armor requires STR 6.
