UO Second Age

I was running on Test Center yesterday at 49 STR and 79 stones in my pack, and 15 DEX/Stamina. I would immediately lose 1 point of stamina upon running, but then I never lose another one, no matter how far I run. I literally ran from Yew to Britain, maintaining 14/15 stamina the whole time. I never realized stamina loss was based on pack weight, but surely even at half-capacity one should lose stamina at SOME rate while running, right?

Pf, I can run 80 miles with a 30 lb pack IRL, wtf are you talking about?

I notice that my character loses stamina while riding horseback too, not just the horse. Not sure if that's how it's supposed to be or not.

So, I didn't even realize running in UO took stamina until I got a cable modem in 1999 (I'd been on crappy-ish dialup before that). So the question you need to ask before any others is, what's your ping time to the server?
