Stamina (rhelp)
Stamina
Stamina is something that Rangers are reknown for throughout the Realms.
While other Classes lack the training to be able to do so, Rangers can
keep going for tremendous distances, and perform incredible acts of
exertion without becoming exhausted. The reason for this is simple -
while a Fighter will retire to a warm bed or a pub for the night,
in the wilds there are no such luxuries. Many Rangers start their
careers as Scouts and Messangers too - both areas in which stamina
is the key.
Because of this Rangers need not worry about exhaustion to anything like the same level as their non-ranger peers. They get massively more Stamina Points than any other class, and also have the unique ability to get a 'second wind'. Normally when someone becomes exhausted, the effects can be extremely dangerous....especially if in combat, but a Ranger can use his or her second wind to escape before exhaustion proper sets in. Be wary though...as when the second wind expires, the Ranger will be able no more able to do anything other than collapse in a heap than any other class. It can also come but once an hour.
