Miscellaneous: Myconid Spore King Loot Table is not what it was during Kunark.

[Asher]

His loot table rarity should look like this:

common: Fungus Scale Covered Tunic
uncommon: Robe of Living Fungus
Rare: Fungus Covered Great Staff

I hunted through patch notes and unfortunately there was no mention of it there but I did find many mentions of it from people on monkly-business.com and Allakhazam.com

This is the common drop...but the King is very rare, and the camp is VERY hard to hold

First off getting here is a pain. You can bypass the teleport room out tho.

Get into the Shroom area and move down the hallway to the right. You may or may not have to fight 1-3 roamers.

King and 2 others are on a platform. King spawns in middle.

You can set up opposite from the watery / open area against the wall. Be forewarned that sometimes MOB's will get healed thru the wall, so it is a careful balancing act to avoid fighting to close to roamers or in the wall.

* IF * the King is pulled you must get on him. Do NOT attempt to mez him. Perhaps a 60 Shaman or Enchanter could stop / slow him, we didn't have the luxury.

We had following party:
57 Enchanter
58/59 Bard
56 Paladin (Our tank)
55 Cleric
56 Mage
55 Monk (Yours truly)

Critical that the 55's con everything. Enchanter needed to know because of spell choice.

The Fungal is great for reducing downtime and combined with group / ind Chloro/Regrowth provides nice regen.

We killed King 4 times: 3 Tunics, 1 Robe.

And there are a ton of other people saying the drop is common on the page 3.

So the drop rate has dropped, i heard that it hasn't even dropped once in the past 2 weeks. Anyone contradict this rumor?
Zeb's prices are at a firm 35k. Saw one or two for 40k on auctions. Mostly there are 100 people WTB fungi.

Post #15 has someone saying drop has been nerfed to rare. Dated Feb 7 2002.
This time frame is similar to what peopled mentioned on allakhazam.com

-----------------------

I don't know what else can be provided as proof but I am sure at least one of the Devs would know this if they had played around that time period. Fungi Tunic becoming rarer was common knowledge to people at that time.
