I'm not sure about the other games, but the info here regarding SOTN isn't quite true. For Alucard to receive the full benefit of his STR, his STR must equal or exceed his weapon's ATT bonus.

So for example, this naked Alucard has 24 STR, and is trying to use Mormegil which has an ATT bonus of 25. Because his strength is too low, he only receives 37 ATT which is half his STR 12 + 25 ATT.

The ring of pales confers only a measly 1 STR, but this is enough to push Alucard above the STR requirement, and suddenly his ATT jumps to 50 which is the normal 25 STR + 25 ATT.
