Interesting read, thanks from me for typing all of that.

We play different content in a different way, but I’d still like to weigh in. From a single-player PvE perspective, the stamina penalty is probably not as problematic, but still annoying enough at least for me to not use corrupted builds anymore.

The stamina penalty combined with the stamina cost increase has made corrupted builds very, very boring to play. You either only do single attacks and wait for stamina to return. Or you use rolling trust and still only use single attacks, than dodge.

I mean… come on, how is that fun?

Remoing the stamina penalty would be the easiest fix. One might also add corrupted Grit perks which could help alleviate the problem, e. g. a huge stamina buff or stamina cost reduction.

Or one could revert the complete stamina rework and go back to AoS. Just saying.
