Strength: Increases the base damage for melee weapons.
Dexterity: Increases your chance to critical hit, and damage dealt when you critical hit. It also reduces damage when enemies critical hit you. The effects are subject to a diminishing return formula.
I'm not sure what the diminishing returns look like exactly but I know as long as you have between 110-150 dex you should be good with the rest in str.
