That is the ultimate "narrow tube", in my opinion.

A healthy balance could be found.

What is with the people here? How does making someone stuck on one tile compare to doing a little more damage with a hally? This goes in and everyone will be a macer for tournies.

Does anyone have common sense on this server? WTF?

How would macer mages be WORSE when people cannot regen stamina? Explain your reasoning please...

"How does making someone stuck on one tile compare to doing a little more damage with a hally?"

But that's the reason they do slightly less damage, correct?

So if you have any situation where people cannot run out of stamina, Swords will be at a clear advantage.

The solution is a balance, not gimping entirely the main advantage of macing.

Actually the balance is already there if you would think things through. You CANNOT dp your swords or fencing weapons; however, you can still drop stam with macing. So in your logic macing is actaully overpowered right now.

swords have the highest d.o.t.
damage over time!!!!

Actually I believe that goes to fencing. The spear is the most efficiant weapon on the game. Next I believe is the Q-Staff....
