Power Attacks, Weapon Weight, Stamina

[Gorsondor]

Does the weight of your weapons mean that it costs this amount of stamina or extra to perform power attacks with it?

[Sir Walrus]

No i believe it is the same for all weapons. It might be a difference in one handed and two handed though.

[koen.darding]

the weight does in fact increasse the stamina drain from power attacks

[Mr. J.D. Gumby]

The weapon weight is quite important, though the difference gets less significant as weight gets higher:

power attack stamina cost = (40 + weapon weight * 2) * attack cost multiplier * (1 - perk effect)

"attack cost multiplier" is x0.5 for Dual Attacks (sounds good, but the Dual is 3 attacks) or x1 for everything else.

I know what the wiki says, I was simply looking for the opinion of others or someone to help me clearifiy it.
