Stamina — WoW Classic stat
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ru
Stamina is a primary stat of WoW Classic that governs a character's health pool. It is the most universal stat in the game: health matters to everyone, from tank to healer. The more stamina, the longer you last in a fight on the WowX5 x5 server.
Stamina is the one stat equally useful to every class and role. In PvP and against raid bosses, the health pool often decides whether you survive.
What stamina does
The single but crucial role of stamina is adding maximum health. The mechanic is simple:
- The first points of base stamina give 1 health each.
- Every point of stamina above the base gives about 10 health.
So stamina from gear, enchants and elixirs quickly turns into hundreds of points of durability. The stat has no hidden effects — just pure survivability, and that is its strength.
Who needs stamina
| Class and role | Value of stamina |
|---|---|
| Tanks (warrior, druid) | Stat number one — outlast boss hits |
| Melee DPS | Survivability in the thick of the fight |
| Casters and healers | A buffer against burst and AoE |
| PvP players | Survive a burst and strike back |
Unlike strength or intellect, stamina is not tied to a class — everyone values it.
Balance with other stats
The secret of good gear is a balance between damage and survivability. A DPS should not stack only stamina at the cost of damage, yet a glass cannon with no health falls fast. A tank, on the other hand, maxes stamina, adding armor from agility and defensive abilities. Study the combat mechanics to see how much health a given content requires.
How to gain stamina
Stamina appears on nearly every item, boosted by chest and shield enchants, elixirs of fortitude, amulets of endurance and a tank's pre-raid set. Do not forget world buffs and a priest's Power Word: Fortitude. Create a character on WowX5 x5 and build a sturdy, resilient hero.
