I don't know, web. How much skill do you need on a leveling+grouping SK to make up for a fungi?

Last week, I decided I was going to play EQ again as a SK and spent 200K on items. The next day, I decided I didn't really want to make the commitment. I sold back the items except for a CoF and fungi and ended up probably losing like 15K in value.

Oops.

Think of it as charity, Zanderr!

SKs are fun... but you definitely can't be a person who needs to look at their xp bar after every kill, or you'll never last to level through 45 let alone 59.

Fungi tunic. 67k
Sash of the Dragonborn 9k
Ebon Mace 6k
Atramentous shield 2.5k
Deathbringer's Rod .5k
Earring of Essence 4k
Crested Spauldors?
Circlet of Shadow 3-5k
Black Sapphire Electrum Earring 2k
Black Sapphire platinum necklace 2.3k
Plat Fire Wedding rings .5k
Fill up the rest of the slots with Darkforge or whatever.

Target npc. Cast disease cloud. Press auto attack.

Yeah, that was my point. I don't know how someone could argue a SK's skill is more important than being a 120k twink... at least not until a level when they are dealing with difficult pulls.

120k or 2k worth of gear, SKs of equal level are going to more or less perform the same in a group. 5 star agro, 3 star tanking, 5 star resentment from group mates over exp penalty. I'd say Fungi and a decent weapon. Some haste. HF soloing.

I think most SK twinks quit at 54 or even before that. That might change with the removal of class penalties

Bull shit.

15 hp regen per tick that stacks with buffs is enormous from 1-30, huge from 30-40, and still pretty significant 40+ especially depending on the group makeup. The rest of the gear isn't as big of a deal though, true.

There really is almost never any reason to dump 200k on a twink.

When you do it should be CoF and Fungi and those are extremely interchangeable between twink classes.

I always lol at the people who twink their monks with tranix crowns and RBGs when they already have a CoF.

Weapon, Fungi, Haste. After that spend maybe 500-1k a piece on gear, not 25-30k BS.
