I think it may be helpful to new players, if they were given the starting max stamina, to match 24 hours of the starting stamina gain.
This would allow new players to log in once a day, at max stam and use all their stamina, however they see fit.
It will give them more options, from when they join, to maybe try other aspects of the game, rather than just levelling.
With 24 hours of stamina to use, they could pvp ladder/gvg more efficiently, farm some creeps or plants etc. then invent stuff, bounty hunt etc. etc.
Give them more freedom when they join, rather than make it a chore to log in with the sole purpose to level up a bit, so they dont go over max stam.
Just a thought, I might be wrong, but it could encourage more players to stick around, as they would have the stamina bank to expand their gameplay options, early on.
I agree with this in principle, but on day one of the game, who can gvg and pvp? I think there needs to be beginning quests that teach all of this. That way they can explore, hunt, pvp, at their pace(with the quests), and be more educated by level 5-10.
