monk + fungi tunic

[Zarcath]

I don't have my epic yet.

Solo/Duo i'll wear the fungi and swap for robe click
Group pulling i'll wear my robe for the stats, regen on pulls seems inconsequential
Group not pulling/bard in group, i'd wear something with real combat stats (like ice burrower skin or a velious class tunic)

People typically wear fungi 24/7 because they don't have an alternative. It's got shit combat stats. Robes are superior.

When I get my epic, i'll go back and get a Robe of the Lost Circle over fungi.

Sorry - this post makes no sense.

At the tempo of the game found in classic EQ - the regen of the fungi far outweighs any other monk breastplate available for the overwhelming majority of content. You could make the case that certain encounters might favor a resistance heavy piece if you both plan on taking consistent high spell damage AND the differences in resists makes a meaningful impact.

If you're not pulling and never taking damage ... maybe. But are the extra stats really going to do that much extra for you?

Classic eq is a relatively slow game where the stats (str/stam/dex/whatever) of individual items (not counting weapons/haste for a melee) only add very tiny but cumulative advantage. The impact of 15 continuous regeneration per tick is in no way tiny.

Easy, you just put it on and never take it off again until you get a Lungi.

I'm pretty sure that guy is either retarded or doesn't actually play everquest.
