Strength is one of the seven S.P.E.C.I.A.L. attributes in Fallout 4, rated 1 to 10 at character creation. Strength is a measure of your raw physical power. It affects how much you can carry, and the damage of all melee attacks. Its column of the perk chart holds 10 perks, from Iron Fist at Strength 1 to Pain Train at Strength 10.

It can be raised permanently by the Strength bobblehead and You're S.P.E.C.I.A.L. book, and 7 pieces of apparel shift it while in effect.
