Stamina regeneration seems to be a percentage; whether you have 50 stamina, or 200, it takes about the same amount of time to "fill the bar" from empty. Thus, the larger your stamina pool, the faster it will regenerate.

Can this be confirmed? I always thought regen rate was static regardless of your max possible stamina. Ergo, I always felt that having high stamina was great for the beginning of a fight, but then it became meaningless since the bigger the bar the longer it would take to regenerate.

So your claim is that instead of regen being "+x points per second" it is actually "+x% of total per second". I need to test that!

There's a formula listed at https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Stamina#Regeneration (probably obtained via datamining) that shows baseRegen = 6 + 6 * (1-(remaining stamina/maximum stamina)).

It would appear that the more stamina you have remaining, the slower your stamina regenerates. To put it another way: The lower your bar, the faster the stamina regen.

My impression that it is completely percentage based was apparently inaccurate; instead, regeneration rate is affected by the amount of stamina used.
