I wonder what gear you have. I have died in the swamp too.. I just return during day, rested and with all the food bufs I can use. And I invoke the Eikthyr to keep my stamina going for a bit longer if needed.

It's really not that bad. Depending on how prepared (or unprepared) you'd gone into the swamp, it might not be the update that's causing this. I'm still pre-boss #3, and I'm not having all that much trouble. Then again, I take the game at a relaxed pace and prep to explore.

I didn't... I ragequit lol. I'll try again when/if they change the stamina system back to how it was 'cause... :( I can't do anything but die the way it is right now.

oh boy, that looks really bad. hope you got your stuff back. :)
