Yep I call it "armour break" - it's possible to proof - I found out using the augment eminence plus a bow - say I'm lv25 on the way to Bluemoon tower, and the bandits in the caverns are too much for me - I jump and shoot (fun) - which should normally boost damage about 30%..

But as before I was below the armour break threshold I was doing ~10 hp damage, but with the strength boost from jumping with eminence the attacks do 100hp damage - that's 10X damage when normally it would be 1.3X ..

If you are taking 3 periapts and still doing tiny damage you need to level up.

Anyway = long story short - damage vs strength is not a straight line
