Power attacks vs. Spell casting

Post » Mon Jul 01, 2013 2:45 am

Do you think power attacks should require the requisite amount of stamina to be executed, the way spells require the full magicka cost to be there when casting? Just interested in the spread of opinions on this. Apologies if such a poll has been done.

Voted "b" with the proviso that the bar flash if a power attack cannot be executed with the current weapon.

I think that we should be able to do power attacks when at low stamina, but at reduced damage.

I voted for option three, and I can imagine the smashed controllers and Mice and Keyboards if Melee was gimped like Magic in Skyrim :violin:

I think they should have made all Magic and Mundane attacks require a set amount of Magicka or Stamina. A Power Attack would be like Dual Casting.

I agree with this. I don't think people would be complaining as much about magic if melee fighters had to manage their stamina.

Stamina management for melee has been done by a lot of mods, and I couldn't play without them. Definetly something the vanilla game is lacking.
