Will we ever have working endurance?

Being low on stamina/endurance didn't cause you to stop attacking or move slower. Not being able to use discs was probably true, but I didn't play a melee class back then. The only result was a stat penalty if your stamina (attribute) was below 100. As long as your stamina was 100+, the yellow bar didn't mean anything (besides not being able to jump, and I guess discs).

It was never important.

Played a warrior on live. Heavy weapons drained your stamina and when you ran out, your attack speed went to crap. Yes attack speed, in addition to not being able to jump. Dunno about the small races, it was prolly worse for them, but I remember it happen to my troll with a wurmslayer 15wt and a reaver 25wt. But you don't have to worry about that here, clearly broken.

Thread here mentions penalties to attack speed/damage done at low stamina http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=6827, continuing to look...

I'm pretty sure all the attack speed / damage / movement speed "debuffs" caused by low stamina/endurance were just perpetuated rumor like anti-camp radius.

I could be wrong, I played a shaman in classic so it didn't affect me much. But I do remember discussions w/ friends who played melee classes that all seemed to agree that it didn't really matter much as long as your stamina stat was 100+.

I remember during Luclin watching my dad solo on his Ranger. He had a lot of trouble meleeing things down because he had heavy weapons that drained his endurance really fast. He had to root and use his bow while his stamina regenerated.

It's an issue with the titanium client.

This is probably the best thread I've found out of all of them, it details the following:

Sub-100 stamina and an empty stamina (endurance) bar decreases STR/AGI/DEX/STA by 10 points each.

devs from live have stated that anti-camp radius was real and existed for at least one camp in the game...careful what you call an eq legend...some of them are actually true.

where weapon swings affect endurance loss, and no endurance = no melee swings?

won't happen.

But it's classic, isn't it?

You are all forgetting the most horrible part of classic Endurance...

which is: Swimming would reduce your endurance

This means that if you fall off the boat in OOT and you are far from land, you will eventually run out of stamina and drown. I know this because it almost happened to me once.

If I am wrong or mistaken, please let me know as it was 14 years ago, but I still get anxious on the boat though.
