      So was just talking with another dude about how the combat system could work and i thought about the stamina system from skyrim/eso and would really like to see it in this game.

      So the skyrim/eso system for those who doesnt know have health, magicka and stamina

      Health: quite obvious
      Magicka: used for any of the spells cast in the game and i mean ANY SPELL which might be different in this game
      Stamina: in ESO everything you did use stamina basically, so when you were sneaking you used stamina, you used stamina when running, on charging attacks and on blocking and this is the main point i think would be cool

      So you should be able to block in the game requiring different amounts of stamina, so if you had a shield it wouldnt take quite as much stamina when blocking compared to a greatsword.

      This would encourage actually thinking when fighting so instead of mindlessly charge attacking and abusing block you would need to watch your stamina bar because when it would run empty you would not be able to block, sprint or charge your attacks also you would turn kinda sluggish meaning you would attack slower and have more openings that the enemy can abuse.

      Just an idea i think would make combat harder and more interesting.

      I love the idea of a stamina feature. The only part of your post I don’t like is ‘using stamina when you’re sneaking’. …Really? ESO does that?? That’s the worst thing to spend stamina on. Swinging an axe or sprinting, I can totally get, but not sneaking.

      gonna use an argument i saw for the exact same statement:

      ”I would like to see you walk around without making a single sound and not being seen, and then tell me its not physically exausting”

        I feel it tears more on my concentration than anything else really. (To sneak around) If you are in armor though its a completely different story

      Sneaking should not be using stamina (like in all the good TES games (not ESO ;D )), but it should be slower then normal movement. It also could be not “perfect” so if you come to close to someone he may see your ghostly silhouette (may be the range is based on your skill in sneaking).

      The usage of stamina should also be bound to skills, so if you have a high skill in blocking it uses less stamina befor it’s all gone.

      But Basicly I would LOVE to have an “energy” next to the typical health and mana 😉
