Due to my propensity to ask everyone I meet about what they remember of stamina, I was given this treasure trove of legit in era posts about stamina:

From around 24 to 40 I got Zing requests all the time, but since then they
are very rare. I assumed it was because people were getting lighter weapons,
but after some long boring greenie camps where topics wandered, I discovered
its because they got their stamina to 100 and have found that there is no
noticable effect on them when their stamina runs out.
Thats not to say there -isn't- some effect, its just that if there is its so
minimal
that noone cares about it.
I made my Beastlord STA 100 on creation; more HP and immunity to the
concerns of stamina loss was my thinking. Now I find that the beastlord
weapons are all apparantly extremely light! Oh well, I'll be happy about
it when I get to Kedge camping.

Nothing evidently if your chars stamina is at least 100. If its lower
than 100 when you run out of stamina you will be hitting visibly
slower.

Wurmy is kind of the realm of large race melee types who are more
likely to have at least 100 stamina. I think my troll sk has like 120
base stamina and in the crustacean plate and other gear she has on she
is at 198 stamina currently. Wielding a wurmy for her is like some
races wielding a dagger. Even in prolonged fights her stamina still
has some left in it. Of course dual wielding something and a wurmy you
lose stam faster.

Until very very recently (I'm level 49) I totally neglected 1HS. The
only semi-decent 1HS around at low-mid levels is the Wurmslayer, and
this is *very* heavy for any race other than Ogre and Troll to wield
without depleting your stamina bar after one fight.

From the map on EQAtlas, it seems my best hope would be to try swimming
directly south to the island with an elven outpost. Would those elves be
KOS to me? I am a woody ranger with typical "good" factions. Is the swim
possible at my level? Im 20th, and my swimming is 29. What will happen to
me if my stamina runs out? I noticed even in the fairly short trip from
shuttles to island I lost 4 out of 5 bubbles of sta.

There's more in there and it goes waaaaaay back.
