It certainly crippled them in the original game [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. I am only making this argument because we are talking with people who never played it, only P99 Blue or Green as they were being corrected and took those for fact of what the game is/was. They think these 'changes' are to alter their game.. we have had this discussion many times.

You are looking at the game from the point of view that the Quality of Life changes were the standard. I don't expect a change from the developers, they have already tried. I am just pointing this out to you. Original EQ was not concerned with Min/Max and being uber in its player design. Some classes could, some do here on P99 20years after the fact with all knowledge shared. I think you are given the short end of the stick with this but its complicated.

Stamina is also very important. I'm not talking about the stamina stat, but the stamina bar in the corner. Remember when I said to use lightweight weapons? Well that is because you want your stamina up for a a number of reasons. During your pull, while chasing your MoB after a successful instill doubt, or during a retreat to zone; you will probably be making good use of your jump button (which requires stamina). With heavy weapons and a low stamina, you'll be a dead rogue. So keep an eye on that bar.
Here is an in era level 57 Shadowknight with less than 100 stamina. Point is not everyone had full best in slot, a wiki to guide them to the best loots with full spawn times and placeholders or would dedicate the time to camping shit to sell or trade.

that screenshot is from this site, you can follow an in era adventure with screenshots that still exists today. In several you can see his stamina bar dropping in a fight.
