Geesh, such a defeatist attitude really doesn't help the conversation much.... 

Strength adds a % chance to reduce the RT by a flat amount. More strength increases this % chance. We went with a flat reduction to avoid situations where you end up at 0 RT at the extremes. More tie-ins are likely in the future, but not always with regards to round times. 

Strength also factors into {{PRel|mining}} RTs in a similar manner. No waiting for 3.0 required.

{{PRel|Carving discipline|Stone carving}} is strength and agility IIRC, and {{PRel|Tailoring discipline|tailoring}} will be agility and reflex. Right now we are undecided on the other crafting skills yet. 

And before I forget, stamina should become a larger component of {{PRel|forging}} (and other systems) once the 3.0 changes to fatigue are in.
