I believe that it is commonly understood that this item gets retro nerfed. I never saw a single one for sale, ever, on my server on live (cazic-thule). I'm fairly sure that if it wasn't these robes would be invaluable and would have been nerfed quickly (like fire pot binding). Alla shows the robe as having no regen - unless someone can produce a verifable screen shot of a "pre nerf" robe from a "post nerf" time stamp I think that this part of the discussion is over. The question at hand here is when does this robe lose the regen? Sometime between 6 weeks after Kunark and Mid Velious from all that I can gather on live. But the dev's don't have to make everything exactly the same as it was on live. What's wrong with letting monks have their fun with this funny robe anyway? We all know that as soon as it gets nerfed we're all going to be back down there farming tunics to replace them. IMO the devs should make the smart decision to just nerf the fungi stick and leave the robe as is until velious at least.

So I'll go ahead and request that a dev post their proposed nerf date for this thing and put an end to this discussion.

P.S. - for clarification, pre nerf fungi stick has clicky regen from inventory - post nerf is clicky only when worn. Fungi robe gets the regen retro nerfed off of it making it completely useless except for the cool green robe graphic. Fungi tunic was never changed. Hope that helps clear some stuff up - and if you really think I'm wrong, cite your source.

This is how I recall it for the robe of living fungus. I cannot comment on the other items. I owned the robe after it was nerfed because they were basically being given away and being a Druid that liked robes (but can't wear many) this was a decent looking one.

I too, have never ever seen the robe for sale after the nerf. In these early days, they did occasional ninja-nerfs. Maybe someone can search the soe forums from that long ago?
