Default Mrylokar BP vs Fungi vs both - Time investment on leveling

Hey all,

I'm 48 Rogue atm. I have a fungi.

I need a math party helped solved. I'm trying to level my rogue to 60 mostly through soloing. Would it be worth it to buy a Mrylokar BP and spend the time farming cash for that as an idea on time investment total.

What i mean by that is, using a fungi and sitting, 50% to full is 750 hp atm (and will increase as i level). i'm ignoring the x amount to 50% for now but i know it would be faster with a Mrylokar Bp. Im just focusing on the latter half.

If it takes about a minute to heal to full with Mry BP vs 4+ mins with fungi, i save about 3 mins each heal to full. But currently i usually feel safe to engage again at around 60-70. But as i take on more risks, it would prolly behoove me to make that number higher as a death loses me a ton of time.

On the split side, it would prolly take me upwards of 90 hours to farm the 60K plat for the BP.

Now i could also sell the fungi (and my seahorse belt as i dont need the haste anymore -it was going to go to an alt) and only farm 8K, but then i lose the benefit of healing while fighting and while stealthed if in dangerous area.

I know there's more to this. Basically, is it worth it to spend 90 hours to get a Mrylokar BP to help me solo to 60, would those 90 hours be better spent just leveling and with downtime between kills, or should i sell the fungi and haste belt and jsut level with a Mry BP?

The idea is fastest solo leveling with my rogue. (We're not getting into how silly it is to solo a rogue to 60)

Edit: i also realized that i save money by not buying bandages, but i could alleviate this with the embalmers knife as well which is relatively cheap.

If you really want to solo, it's absolutely worth selling the Fungi and belt to get the Myrlo BP. Healing 900 HP per min out of combat is much, much better than healing 150 HP per min in combat. Do it and don't think twice, you won't miss the Fungi.

You should definitely get the skinning knife for infinite bandages either way. We then get this comparison at Level 51 when bind wound becomes really good:

Fungi + Bandages = 654 heal per minute
Breastplate + Bandages = 1,044 heal per minute (and breastplate can heal past 70% health faster than Fungi)

It's not worth farming 90 hours to have Breastplate + Fungi, but it's worth farming for 13 hours to sell your Fungi + Seahorse Belt and get the Breastplate.

Mryo looks amazing too. And has better melee stats.

At some point it will be a kill, regen or heal to full, and another kill. The Mryo is a better solution for that.

Devil’s advocate: Fungi you can just slap a 4xbandage, 1x sit macro while hide/sneak and go outside to smell a bunch of flowers for 10 mins instead of getting carpal tunnel.

Is there any design reason Mrylokar has 6sec cast time instead of the typical 15?

Minus the hide part, you can AFK for a few mins and have something click the breastplate for you and be full health when you get back
