Myconid Spore King - Monk Solo

[shovelquest]

Once again I want to point out DSM has been consistently right in every single instance ITT.

His solo victory against such odds is tantamount to the incredible work in OP's videos.

First of all, I am completely BiS in every slot except neck.

Then where was your Spikecoat? Doesn't seem you have it.

Me taking damage on the pull and waiting for ensnare to land is totally irrelevant because I regened to full and engaged from 100% afterwards.

Velious BP has ZERO affect on one's ability to solo the king, all it does is give you more time for the pull and kill before frogs respawn. But time is not the limiting factor. You trying to use this to support your argument just demonstrates how COMPLETELY CLUELESS you are

Wrong. To attempt it without outside buffs you'll need time to land a Steal Strength proc, heal up, and then proc Avatar before the kill.

Thanks for showing how clueless YOU are.

People have approached the challenges in ways aside from just those rules. Pretty much nobody was paying attention to that page anymore. And again, those rules were ALREADY in dispute and literally didn't even make sense to being with (being allowed to use as many potions as possible, when that goes against the entire reason for not allowing a Soulfire click). Stop ignoring that fact.

How convenient that you have absolutely zero proof.

You also have zero proof, absurdly acting like you know what every other player in this game has done. You're so freaking ignorant that you seriously think you're unquestionably the first person to do this, and that you've discovered some special thing, when you don't even play on a server where this stuff is actually incentivized.

And how convenient that a lack of videos on other solo kills in the past is not something you care about, as you so transparently feign interest in protecting the sanctity of solo challenges. The only thing you've shown you care about in this thread is people praising you.

If that's the case why don't you go and show us how it's done then? I'm dying to see your attempts. Oh wait... you won't because you can't

There's literally already a video linked that shows a faster way to do the kill. Your constant fallacies and inability to listen to the points being made is tiresome.

I could certainly mirror what you did if I cared to waste time playing this game more, but I don't. There's absolutely nothing mechanically special you did that any other decent player couldn't also do if they were given the character and a practice run. The effort of gearing the character is the main barrier of entry and that is not skill, it's mere busywork.

Being the only person on the encounter log makes ALL the difference in the world.

Being the only character on an encounter log has absolutely NOTHING to do with how many players were actually used in total, nor what is the more efficient way to do something.

You did not do the encounter using only the capabilities of a single player. FACT.

Still this pathetic mentality of acting like people are denying what you did. Get a grip. NOBODOY HAS DONE THAT. You simply don't recognize that what you did is not the be-all-end-all of solo challenges. Exactly as I said before, your behavior is to lash out at anyone who doesn't act like you are a god walking on water. You show zero interest in considering logic and reason or having a discussion, you simply want an ego boost for posting the thread.

YOU are denying the achievements of others, continuing to totally shit on the completely valid and actual SOLO PLAYER/CHARACTER ways that others have done challenges.

Your own attitude literally shits on your own video. The bullshit you're saying is equivalent to saying you achieved nothing, since the outdated wiki page said there's no difference in using consumables or not.

Funny how you also ignore all the other people who have said they don't consider it a true solo, trying to strawman your way into making it look like two people are ganging up on you. Why can't you accept that everyone in this thread has given you props for making a video of the kill, but the majority of the playerbase doesn't consider it to be a 100% solo kill.

[Duik]

Im not jealous but i am envious. Having the list of consumables/clickies on its own is an accomplishment. Now i know it does not count towards it being solo challenge material. Killing a badarse boss mob by himself (albiet with a AC/HP buff here and others), real world kindly peeps buff others un asked and without a need for donations.
Stryker done amazing. Everyone else just gets to shut the hell up.
I dont recall him asking everyone to kiss his arse, or worship him ever.
I cant believe he needs to come here after 20+ pages of faff and twaddle with various nerds insulting each other and rage editing the solo challenge page (page history is an hilarious read...) to defend his efforts.

Do better people. The real world is all kinds of fucked up, try to make PretendLand not so insufferable.

He says this, and then contradicts himself in the same post:

Zuranthium is clearly a troll at this point. Zuranthium lost all credibility after he misquoted OP and then tried to argue OP didn't know his own quote as well as Zuranthium.

Do not worry, the wiki page will be fixed regardless. It is strange that you want people to be banned for editing your changes on a page nobody pays attention to anyway.

I wear Dain Belt, which is better than Tunare belt for monks. Spikecoat is a 4 point DS that would make my DS 39 vs 35, completely irrelevant when it comes to negating the benefit you get from Aego and Haste.

ROFLMFAO, OK - this says all we need to know right here. You think a Steal Strength (27 pt strength debuff) is going to magically make the king tankable without buffs? Which one of us here has solo'd the king again? And which one of us is posturing on a forum trying to convince people of shit they know absolutely nothing about? Pretty sure that was me that solo'd him, which makes you the forum troll that doesn't know shit about shit. But I'M the clueless one here? LOL OK. Everyone here should know by this statement what a complete and utter fucking newb you are. Steal Stength the Spore King lmfao, that's rich.

Again, this is just you forcing your opinion on others. Who says nobody was paying attention to that page anymore? How do you know what pages are frequented or how often?? You don't. And who was "disputing" those rules besides you and the other 2 trolls in this thread that have never said shit until someone posted something they can't do themselves?

The burden to bare proof falls on the person making the outlandish claims. You are soo full of shit you can't even say a name! LOL we all see through your shit dude - you're not fooling anyone with this.

Linking a video of someone using multiple characters to kill something is pretty irrelevant in a conversation about SOLOing the spore king with a single toon. Their video and method is great, and impressive, but it has nothing to do with this method, and referencing it is pointless.

Yeah it's only the 5+ years of gearing a single character in a guild with 500 other people bidding against you. Pure busy work, right? The people that spend years getting their characters full BiS clearly have no more skill than the average Joe in the EC tunnel right? Playing a character at the highest level for so long surely cannot translate into skill that other's might not have, right? This is just more copium from you.

Mmmm actually, yes I did. I am a single player. I was the only person that got agro, pulled, took damage, and dealt damage. The buffs didn't give me extra abilities that my class doesn't have otherwise. I didn't use anything that monk's can't use, including buffs. Again, do you think the GM's would make me roll for the fungi because other people buffed me an hour prior to the kill? No - because I solo'd it.

Uhmm, what? You just spent 40+ pages denying what I did was solo. If anyone needs to get a grip here its you. You're fucking delusional.

All the other people? You mean you, Samoht, and Warpath. The majority of people that have come here have not tried to dispute whether it was solo or not except for you 3 envious idiots.

Everyone here can see what a complete and total moron you are. You're actually just making it worse for yourself the more you drag this out. Every time you post you divulge a new detail demonstrating just how stupid you really are. Like claiming that Steal Strength makes the king soloable without buffs, lmfao. Pretty hilarious how you just throw shit out there like its a fact when you have literally ZERO experience what-so-ever doing this yourself. You are a sad little troll; its pathetic really. I've made my point, and you've done nothing but make an ass of yourself. I'm done arguing with you.

Zuranthium once again telling people how they aren’t playing well, yet never logging on to show what he has or what he can do.

At least he’s good at editing an EQ wiki, lol. I’m just glad we aren’t talking about offhand swapping a SoS for more dps.

Lol no worries on the edits.

Zuranthium showed in this thread that he has a youtube channel. He could easily post videos of himself soloing Fungi King or doing that offhand swapping at any time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqNfDrTpG_Q

But Zuranthium probably never will.

Back on topic:

Reposting OP's epic video where he kills Fungi King solo with his monk, no consumables:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wONdIYAofyQ

https://wiki.project1999.com/Solo_Artist_Challenge

It deserves the highest ranking of [S] when following the solo artist challenge wiki page. Please note the wiki page was changed after OP did his video, and the changes are still in dispute. [S+] did not exist as a rank previously.

I take Zu’s advice on competitive EQ, as like the game of love - the winning move is not to play.
