Tips from a several thousand hour player: Watch out for those pesky Power attacks. (clickbait)

[theFlu]

Normal attack costs ~18 stamina. Power attack costs 20 stamina and does double damage => Never use normal attacks.

 

Few thousand hours later:

Oh, power attacks cost 20 stamina and 3 seconds of regen.. that's FIFTY stamina. Oh noes.

 

Here's a muppet learning some hard life lessons (and showing how it works after a small rant):

We made a change to that a while back actually, regarding the stamina delay. It'll still be there but less, it's a balance thing (work for A22).

I don't hate the mechanic, it's just hard to learn - so, either way sounds good to me.. but since you're messing with it, please consider some visual highlighting for the stamina bar while the regen is off (or some other highlighting for the mechanic). I'm sure you have ..
