Mrylokar BP vs Fungi vs both - Time investment on leveling

[WarpathEQ]

RIP solo rogue, seems like pretty bad advice here, what you're going to find as you get closer to 60 is you aren't going to be able to survive the fight without the fungi and the out of battle regen won't really matter if you can't successfully get the mobs dead solo.

Alternatively you'll have to resort to fighting the absolutely weakest margin greenest mobs that still give exp that your exp gains will be so slow you'll be farming to get the fungi back.

Best of luck.

A fungi is 150hps a minute. It regens 2.5hp/second. Blue cons do more than 2.5dps. Best of luck using a calculator.

Lots of rogues solo to 60, it is isn’t hard if you know where to go, have decent gear, bum buffs, or use poisons.

Nobody is saying you will be HP neutral or positive with a fungi on 50+ silly man but that extra 450hp over a 3 minute fight, which is probably ~20% of your total HP self buffed means you can fight 20% more mob, compared to a very minimal diff in your overall AC. As someone who used both while leveling I saw a massive difference in what fights I could win with a fungi on over a mrylokars BP during combat. Of course the MBP is the best thing outside of combat but that only matters when you aren't dead and when you can actually kill things that give meaningful exp gains.

The fungi is a necessity to maximize your solo exp efficiency the MBP is a luxury to reduce downtime

I came off smug, sorry about that.

Understandable but most fights in this game outside a few classes are kill one, recover, repeat ad nauseam. 7 min repops are the life blood of a solo to 60 melee.

Currently a Mryo on blue sells for about 2x a Fungi. It’s a nice cheap pick for any melee and most the priests situationally. That said, most fights aren’t 3 minutes long for a monk, rogue, or warrior. Perhaps for a hybrid melee due to spell use and lower dps on higher Hp targets.

All of it does sound painful though. I agree you certainly need a recovery tool to keep killing a repop in those high levels. Not sure I agree that a 58+ post-HK rogue needs a fungi to live. If so they are walking a high-wire with death (a couple hundred hps) every fight, RNG is going to roll bad dice eventually.
