Not sure why this hasn’t been suggested after all this time but the lag making your char remain on sprinting animation yet your speed is that of walking really is bothersome specially when travelling to far-off places or simply rushing somewhere considerably far.
I must say, I’ve had enough so please allow us to be able to toggle this feature so that we won’t have to deal with the pain of overtapping directional buttons just for the sake of sprinting towards our destination 
They even mention how mouse mode isn’t ideal for swordsman because you can’t sprint with mouse movement , but there isn’t even a bindable button for spriting in the game yet. This should change…
They should also add a buff icon to show if you are sprinting or not, because lag, getting hit, jumping, jumping and attacking, seems to randomly lock you in animating as if you were sprinting but it is regular speed. You then have to stop moving and re-start sprinting, its really tiresome.
I for one feel you on that and that is why we need to get the feedback on this sort of thing coming up because it truly is a huge bother 
this was not implemented yet???
imo outside of pvp sprinting should not even cost extra stamina
Seems like it
@Eroica: some people might see that a bit unfair because that would make swordsman much faster in terms of travelling without any penalty to it
That’s too bad because just everything how swordies are designed it is unfair to us.
It’ll get balanced sooner or later
Just be patient, chill, and do something else while at it xD
A button to sprint???
hahahahahah hope is a fool thing.
+1 for the literal lame approach they gave to this system.
All it needs is time
May it be for better or worse, there’s nothing we can do but wait it all out
I’ve only had one for a few days, but it seems to only last for 5 seconds (even though the animation stays and it eats your Stamina) at full speed, and seems to gradually decline. It also bugs out (still has the animation, but doesn’t make you faster or consume extra Stamina) if you open your map while sprinting sometimes. But yeah, a toggle would be nice. Oh, and I use a keyboard, if that makes a difference.
