The unfairness for ethies wasn't tied to horse stamina, it was tied to the fact that when the system first went live (it was turned off about a month later and stayed turned off for ~ a year), ethereal mounts didnt have a cast time. This resulted in many mount and run situations and resulted in many annoyed people.

The big reason ethies were killer for me is that, since the horse couldnt' die, there was no way to permanently remove a persons mount. In other words, if we used a bola to dismount we could not then attack the horse. If we killed a person and they ressed, they instantly had their horse back....which sucks.

My apologies for bumping an old thread but as the horse stamina issue affects me daily (now that I am back ;-) I am curious as to where things stand with this?

I did test out my ostard last night. I had him standing next to me all night and he was gone by morning, so at some point I think he went wild. However, never having to feed a mount is a problem, I believe.
