Um..
No offense, but I did not understand what you meant, so I'll try to explain it more.
Creatures that are weak are easy to kill, but in the start you may encounter creatures that you are not able to kill with 1, 2 or 3 hits. You may need 15 hits, or you may need 30 hits.
If you attack with "Max 20 stamina" and you attack 20 times without killing, the battle is unresolved. This means that you will loose the 20 stamina and not kill the creature.
If you attack with "Max 40 stamina" you can attack the creature 40 times. If you complete it in 30 hits, you loose 30 stamina.
I never had to use the "Max 60 stamina", but perhaps its usefull.
This "Max 40" or "Max 60" are also used when fighting Super Elites (very strong creatures that you attack with a group of strong players) it may take more then 20 hits to kill it. And therefor you must attack with a "Max 40" or "Max 60" attack.
It has nothing to do with how hard you hit (When I started I thought that you could use more stamina to hit harder. Instead of using 1 stamina per hit you could use 3 stamina and hit 3 times as hard, however, this is NOT the case).
Did you understand this??
