Possible Bug: Swing not draining stamina

#1 Post by Thepal » Sun Sep 28, 2008 12:40 am

I was just practicing with Uhura to get my weapon use up, and after a few times thought I might as well try just holding down the attack button to get it up faster. I tried thrust (9) first, and it worked fine. Then I tried swing (7). I noticed while holding it down that my stamina was increasing (at the normal combat rate), but wasn't decreasing. It seems stamina only goes down if the swing connects with Uhura (and probably other monsters), but doesn't use any if you miss.

On closer observation the stamina is going up slower, so swing is probably draining it slightly. But you are still getting more than you are using. Not sure if you want it that way or not (at the moment thrust uses more stamina if you are missing the opponent than swing does)

Hmmm, seems you're right. Swing uses more stamina than stab, but only on contact with the opponent. Seems to be an oversight.
