Also I cannot imagine paying 20k for an item that would be nerfed in a few months, seems like you could get power leveled for cheaper (or just buy the class of your choice at a mid-level for that).

Sadly lots of people on this server have absurd amounts of money to throw around.

I've seen several people buying them for 50k+ in EC.

I don't get why there is still confusion

-nilbog clearly stated the robe was nerfed by June of 2000
-Kunark came out at the end of April 2000

Do the math.

What he meant was, the people who bought them for 50k are now trying to dump them for 15 before the nerf, after which they plummet to <1k.

Funny how everyone is freaking out about prices, when the THING you want pre-nerf from this camp is the Staff.

So is it Retro nerfed or just the new robes?

Read the thread...its retro

EVERYTHING doesn't have to be exact. IMO it's victimless to allow monks to have their regen. It doesn't really affect anything negatively at all to leave it how it is.

I never agreed with the original nerf in the first place and I'd bet if a poll were out the majority would agree.

EDIT: I'm a monk :P (NO BIAS THOUGH!)

How exactly does this not negatively effect anything, in your opinion?

Yeah....

nilbog said it got nerfed early. and perhaps wasn't even ever supposed to have regen in the first place which would be indicative more of why it was nerfed and less that it was an "overpowered" item.

Never... never in the 10 years on Live have I seen a Fungi Robe "pre-nerf" with regen on it still. With how terribly common the shit is why wouldn't there have been at least SOME still floating around? It's not logical. Instead of "omg I'm a monk let us keep these robes" arguments, start searching for evidence and tug less on the heart strings of the devs for personal gain.

Comparing the robe to the tunic, it's hard to say it was simply overpowered. If it was a matter of dropping too frequently, the rate would have been nerfed. If however the item was never meant to have the effect, which I seem to faintly remember, it would be removed from past and present drops. Which they did. The end.
