Posted December 20, 2019 I like the improvements on the sailboats, haven't see what it is like on others. But I noticed when you sail at full, the stamina drain seem to be pretty high. Any chance lower these numbers tad bit? So I wouldn't have to stop every few minutes to regain my stamina. Seem when you go fast or really fast, those numbers goes down quickly too. Also would like to see wakes while moving. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 20, 2019 Stam drain on boats has always been puzzling to me. It is one of those game mechanics that make no sense unless it was made for a very specific purpose (PVP related probably). But to make the whole world put up with it for the sake of one purpose is, well, typical Wogic. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 20, 2019 Take alot more stamina than needed, should reduce it alot, and I would add the body strength factor to add more speed on boat when we still have stamina so it will be a bit more usefull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would enjoy sailing, hunting octopi, sharks, big blue mission whales - all while quietly whittling away at my never ending stacks of arch fragments. If that is somehow an unfair advantage- then I am at a loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why is this limited in that way? pvp nerf again... over majority of pve maps? Another thing is the ..stuff that happen with compasses and movement... you have to stop for the compass to settle... same thing goes for cart/wagons/mounts.. movement have to stop to interact with the object... : / Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 23, 2019 Just noticed that you can keep sailing even if your stamina is zero out, this is odd. But doesn't seem realistic though. Least I wouldn't have to stop every five to ten minutes regain my stamina, would be annoying to do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 23, 2019 you can also keep riding and driving with stamina out, same with all vehicles and mounts. Just be careful when disembarking from a ship as you are in danger to drown without stamina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 23, 2019 Since there doesn't seem to be any reason for the stamina drain while sitting on a boat/wagon/horse, can anyone think of a reason for the game to keep doing it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stamina will not drain on PvE servers, it will remain on PvP servers for tactical reasons. The UI will be clickable to change state. The sails will need to change through states however, we feel this is a good middle ground to give the flexibility and benefits that most want. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
