You can correct me if I am wrong, but based on the video I don't see a significant time difference without buffs. You'd have 1500 less HP to regen before the fungi King fight starts, and the lower DPS would only increase the King fight by ~22 seconds according to the math. Each frog shouldn't have been more than +22 seconds each, as they are easier mobs. It takes a bit over 3 minutes to regen that 1500 extra HP from Aego and FoS with 43 HP regen via sitting.

It's not really the HP loss from buffs that would affect anything. The only significant loss from doing it self buffed (with consumables) would be a slightly tighter clock to get the king dead before frog respawns, due to not having VoG. The time difference between VoG and just monk epic isn't that drastic though. I would guestimate that having VoG saves me about 1-2 minutes per cycle, which
could definitely end up being the difference between having time for the kill, or not - depending on the pull/snare RNG I got that round.
So yes, not having VoG would make it harder, but not impossible. He actually did raise a valid point that was worth discussing this time.
Edit: Actually, after thinking about it some more, if I were using consumables, I wouldn't even need to bother wasting time with procing snare and regening up afterwards. I would just start the fight immediately when I got back to camp. With that in mind, not having VoG would actually make no difference at all really, sure it would be a slightly longer fight, but that's what 300k HP worth of consumables are for lol.
Regardless though, I still think it was a valid and fair question to pose, so thanks again for actually arguing in good faith this time.
