Please remove the stamina system or change it

I feel that the current stamina system is an unnecessary time sink and just takes away from the action in the game by incorporating too much downtime. It sucks being in an awesome fight with a BAM, having a few people die during the fight, but having to sit around a fire for a few minutes to recover stamina (recovers awfully slow when it's below 80%). Not everybody carries around stamina potions and I'm not about to walk around with a ton of potions to hand out every time this happens =/

It doesn't have to be completely removed, but it really shouldn't have such a profound impact on HP/MP like it does now. Hell, I'd rather have the weakness system that Final Fantasy XIV has where they just cut your HP/MP in half if you die for a few minutes. It's better than having to take a break from combat after a while because your HP is too low to take any hits.

When you hit higher levels i'm pretty sure stamina restoration pots will be common and/or cheap.

Plus I heard they r revamping the stamina system anyways very soon, saw a youtube on it

I know what your saying, but there is a medic in towns that you can pay to instantly restore all your lost stamina. It costs 20s+ depending on your level...cheap.

I have over 1000 gold and I'm at level 50. Sure you can recover stamina in town, but if you're far from town in the middle of a quest, that's not an option. I guess stamina pots will be common later on because I've only ever seen 10 or so drop since level 1.

Read my post. I said the issue isn't always just me - it's party members.
Like I said....there isn't always a cleric around
Telling somebody to take frequent breaks is poor advice

2mins to recover by fire
0mins to use a stamina potion
0mins to use a combat stamina potion
0mins to get up and dps unless your the tank or healer

to NOT have a way to get your stamina up to full is general unprepareness/or being lazy.

Ugh, you're completely missing the point like always. I don't mean taking frequent breaks in the course of several hours....I mean taking multiple breaks in the course of an hour :P

Like always? Do you know me?

How about you just accept it as a game mechanic that you need to work with. There are tons of potions that you can make that stop stamin reductions, and there are potions you can buy that recover it, and there is always the one that drops.

Sorry the game isn't like all the others. It encourages people to slow down once and a while and have a dance off by the fire.
