No negative stats, only 0.2 weight, caster usable, currently has Fungal Regrowth (worn) effect. I know this item got nerfed on live, but when? And was the nerf retroactive?

Another item is the Fungus Covered Great Staff, it was nerfed by having the mob that dropped it, drop a different version called a Fungus Covered Staff (didn't have the Fungal Regrowth effect) instead. But the old, "pre-nerf" versions weren't retroactively nerfed. I believe the Fungus Regrowth effect on the pre-nerf version could be casted from inventory by any class, but not sure.
The pre-nerf staff is castable from inventory so any class can use it. The post-nerf has to be equipped and is thus only usable by DRU SHM and CLR (I believe those are the only 3 classes that can wield it).

The robe eventually has regrowth (worn) removed, and since it's not replaced with a different item I would guess that it's a retroactive nerf.

OP:
Runed Fighters Staff (or is it battle?) 19/20 Mnk only 2hb eventually gets removed and replaced with a 38/40 (same ratio, but a weaker staff DPS wise because the dmg bonus gets applied less often).

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.
