[EQFan]

thank you all for the wonderful insightful posts

Can this be clicked on other people?

[EQFan]

self only

[Johncoffeey]

did they change it ? when they dropped u where able to click on others?

[Daldaen]

The target clicking was a P99 bug. The prenerf version is just usable by all classes namely a necro in Perma lich.

[Wotsirb401]

Yeah there are notes about the clicking on anyone was a bug. Basically an ikky necro needs this

[tekniq]

I remember someone cast this on me in my group once and I was like wtf.

[EQFan]

bump

[Quizy]

just to make it clear both staffs are good ones!! this ones just alot better than good hehe

[Zenlina]

For that price and effects (self only, snare, not stacking with regrowth, knocking off sow i think) its not as good as you may think. Good for twinks..

Nah, Other one is a useless piece of shit.

Can someone explain when it would be used over regrowth aside from at lower levels?

I would probably still prefer the lower regen that didn't snare me and lasted longer.

Asher

[EQFan]

Solo classes or when grouped without a class that can cast regen?.......

[quido]

Pretty nice right after a rez, too, I'd imagine.

Channelling through a Torpor or Regrowth just before clicking accept on the res is better.

I think you need to reread my statement. The other one cannot be clicked by a class that cannot already cast regen.

I love using my fungi staff (druid). Its great for situations where either sow has already worn off and i'm indoors or i'm outdoors and have time to safely reapply sow as needed. If i'm solo-ing a particularly hard camp, I'll have regen on to begin with, but if its a root-dot situation or anything without much danger, its the best way to regen up some HP after taking a hit or manastoning down. Why waste 300mana on regen when I can just use 40mana to recast sow?

Sometimes its too risky to use, but it does come in handy. You could argue that regen+tree form would work better, but that only works outdoors and takes more effort.

Iksar Necro = Perma Lich while AFK and not die.
Iksar Monk = 30pt regen with tunic+stave / iksar regen = 48hp per tick sitting @ 60.

Hi, this item is priceless.

[quido]

I bid 500k.

[KentalCowtipper]

Damn Jer didn't know you were sitting on that kinda bank :D Then again its you so I'm not too surprised.

The following is coming from someone who has a pre-nerf staff.
It not as good as people say it is.
It is better.
Period.
Its the best item in the game for a reason.
It was nerfed so fast for a very good reason.
It is game altering..

I have it on my 60 Iksar Monk. Stacked with Iksar regen, fungi tunic and the pre-nerf staff I have 48 regen a tick sitting, 42 standing and 44 FD. Most possible regen you can get atm.
Since its no cast time its incredible easy to hotkey it and click from inventory and then click off at will when you need to go pull.

48 a tick regen.. then factor in mend which heals about 520 hp every 6 minutes - around 9 more "regen" a tick - bringing me up to 57 a tick sitting, 51 standing and fighting. Then think about with close to 1100 ac as an iksar how much DPS mobs in Seb and HS do to me... about 10-15% more than my regen rate. Which means I can only solo 3-4 mobs before having to bind wound up a little...
Melee are not supposed to be able to solo consistently in Seb or HS. I'll be the first to admit its messed up that I can. Without this staff would be impossible.

So um yeah.. this staff clearly isn't broken :p

Once I save up a little mo for a RoA I'm rolling the ultimate broken toon - iksar necro with fungus staff and a RoA.

Basically - if you're playing this game and you're not quitting - what in the hell else would you spend your plat on other than the best (and one of the rarest) no longer dropped items in the game? I wouldnt sell my fungus staff for the world and I know 90% of the other people who have one feel the same way.

Plus no one is valuing in the pimp factor. On a server where there are several hundred CoFs floating (for a population of less than 1k) what other pimptastic dropables are there for people to buy? BBoDE?

I logged in and checked theese boards for the first time in a while and Im shocked that a) someone is selling one of these b) no one is willing to shell out 900k for it on the min bid. Shit if I had the plat for this I'd buy a 2nd one.

Let those people who don't own one of these argue about if its really that good or not. They have no idea how game changing it can be.

[CallnOutTheNubs]

500k is a solid offer for this not 900k LOL

And a necro is just a mana pump endgame nothing more quite useless of a class in my mind.

[Asher]

Everyone says how great the pre-nerf is and I agree.

Only one person has responded regarding the nerfed version which I still consider shit.

I can see how it would be an interesting toy but not worth the 50k to 70k people seem to want.

Quizy please fill me in on the awesomeness of the nerfed stick.

Oh and /bump

Nerfed stick costs about 20k atm.

[Asher]

Nerfed stick costs about 20k atm.

That is somewhat more reasonable. I would say 10k for a silly almost useless toy is more than enough.

I sold my post nerf for 45k

Asher I have a post nerf staff on my druid and I think its incredible. The main reason is I have a manastone and I think it is even better on a shaman since they have canni even in kunark. If you have jboots or black fur boots you can switch back and forth between speed and regen at will and it is free regrowth, an otherwise expensive spell, which also comes at a much higher level than the staff is allowed to be clicked. As another cool trick snare does not effect you underwater, you can use this staff in kedge without any downside or quadding specters in oasis with downside being that you only have normal speed instead of sow speed if you want to keep up the regrowth while you quad.

Fungi tunic+ mana free regrowth + manastone is pretty insane for lvl 1-54 and saving 300 mana every 15 min is pretty nice also even if you are above lvl 54. Instant cast time is another bonus over casting regrowth. As a druid I would never value this item over a manastone, but basically if you have manastone and perhaps the much cheaper ES arms and lumi staff I cant think of another item that would be more useful than this one that you could reasonably get with plat.

Until you need a corpse summoned and DMF for Trak then we are your best friends huh

a manastone with either of these items basically negates the need for a fungi staff for a druid at least. sure u have to spend the 300mana if u want regrowth, but u have mana free greater heals all day.

free bump

[Supaskillz]

ok, those items I have seen for sale by only 1 person ever on this server and that person is you. I suspect both items should go for over 200k each, quite a bit different from a staff that is less than 50k

[EQFan]

i'll put up the 500k bid, but probably will just keep it for that honestly, would be more interested in 750k+.. it will sky rocket in price in velious thats for sure

[Hagglebaron]

Then why not save it for velious? We both know you are not hurting for plat :p

[EQFan]

still for sale

[EQFan]

bump

[Slave]

Are either or both of the Fungi Staves able to target group members? That is what it says in the wiki, and this would also influence the value of the items.

Also curious why OP think that the staff will skyrocket in price for Velious. Maybe the fact that class penalties will be removed and so people will be more likely to create hybrids?

[EQFan]

bump

[Loke]

Prospective buyers might want to consider how powerful this item is when used in conjunction with a mana robe as well. Enchanter, Wizard, and Mage with regen and essentially the ability to cannibalize (albeit, slower cast time) - pretty huge and definitely worth north of 500k imo.

also, free bump.

[EQFan]

still taking offers

word on the street is richgirl got banned yesterday, eqfan was richgirl so that means this staff got the ban too, gg

[Szeth]

You know how many accounts this dude probably has? If he isn't stupid he has 10+ accounts all on different IPs.

[Daldolma]

Theoretically, it shouldn't be hard to find and ban the account with the staff -- there are what, 20 on the server? Highly doubt it happens, though.
