Yes, I am full END too and it keeps me going all night as well XD but even though, my damage with my +4 NPC axe without Vitality buff or clerics' buffs [and total STR I have from all my gears and rings, which is +25 and none from free stat] is around 590~670 ish... IDK it's just around there.
^ With that build all my gears for future use are STR DEX [refer to my latest Appraisals thread] and I use either my STR+19 END+20 Zwei or my SnS when I tank.
Though STR > END in free stat, you may not be able to get enough END from gears, but if you do, that'd be awesome. Now, you being pure STR, go for equips and axes with END, if possible. Even if the weapon be a +7, not a +9, you'll still be well off. Since tanking fighters are of great use, and there's gotta be a few situations where you're needed as tank.
With any attempts of getting good gear and weapons to perfectly match your build, you can just hope for good chances unless you live luxuriously and have no budget problems.
And with others suggesting you carry 1h and axe, just don't buy 1h skills. Saves a lot =)
