      Weird, how?

I mean, improving str from 29 to 30 gives far more bonuses than from 25
to 26. (Like at 28 str, plus one str (28->29) gives +10 damage, at 29 str,
plus one str (29->30) gives +15 damage. (Numbers may not be exact...)
The function is exponential. The higher the stat is, the greater
the bonus one plus of that stat gives. It forces players into some "the
more I have the more I want" mood.
(Ok, my mistake, my phrasing was pretty bad.)
