Hence there was something of a gap in the original game's itemization between bronze and high-level dungeon drops. The patch that added the Temple of Solusek Ro replaced Rubicite with largely superior class-specific sets. The bit of laziness stems from how the developers added Ravenscale (and removed Rubicite) by placing it in Rubicite's former drop slots in Cazic Thule.

disagree, the rubricate armor gave rangers and (rogues?) the same armor class as a warrior, and was not the way the game was intended so it was nerfed. Also considering you didn't see another melee item with regen on it until the next expansion when they nerfed it, thats a clue that the regen was also considered too powerful.

The level range rubi armor affected was the games most populated level range.

There are some with 255 charges still floating around on the server. And yes it's rechargeable.

It may not seem significant with the damage it does, but it is instant and any class can use it. So a level 1 rogue can quad kite what ever mob they want with enough of these wands... or a 255 charge one.

20 of the 5 charge wands are plenty enough to do a quad of wyvern in cs.
WTB x2 225 charge red wood wand, plz send tell
Pm me

It's neat, but not OP because it's horribly impractical. 20 wands to quad wyverns is 2 backpack slots, lets say you forgo food and fill all 8 backpacks, that's just 4 quads and then you get to spend 2 hours and 500 plat recharging them. And don't tell me you'll be quadding wyverns on a low level rogue because there's both an exp cap and red mobs will resist far too many clicks.

I can confirm that a Rogue can only solo to around level 32 with a fungi, If you can get to 36 maybe, but anything higher than that I dont think so.

I soloed a rogue with a fungi and an epic and a fungi and no epic, and both the dudes had a ton of HP gear and CoF haste, the one with the epic could get to 32 and at that point it was just not worth soloing and then the non epic made it to about 26 before soloing became too difficult.

So 45 is a bitch much. I assume warrior would be about the same. Though those flying backstabs were essential so IDK

Game breaking yea, but not level 45 game breaking.

I also tink Puppet strings is the most gamebreaking and of course a manastone, is far more game breaking, epecially if you didnt consider Sony thought so too so they banned its use outside of classic, which just for a moment try to imagine raiding in velious with those. It'd be so broken haha
sarnak berserkers in OT, the braids are decent xp and will take you places - eventually

they also have a max hit of 72 or something, exceptionally low

Lol yeah.. Stopping at 30s with a fungi rogue is pretty weak. I got my dark elf fungi rogue to 52 solo. Also soloed deleveled Cec to 60. Rogues can solo to 50 fine, but it takes patience. And knowing what I know now... 53 or 54 should be doable by anyone with the right tactics. And patience. And plat.

I also got 52 solo with a fungi rogue it was trivial. I could have pushed to 55 probably if I actually tried to land solo backstab and if I used bind wound in combat, but I am too lazy for that. No slow/root nets/bow either.

hey train army, the piont I am tryign to make is if you think a fungi is going to get you to level 45 without you making SLOW ass gains the way the game was intended from level 32-45 then you're just being a con-trany-an

The truth is any class CAN solo to 45 sure, but the point of this thread is GAME BREAKING SOLOING which you can do to level 32 but from that point forward, you are no longer "game breaking" you are just soloing. Which all classes can do, with or without good equipment if they find the right camps.

NOW GO BACK TO YOUR BASEMENT
