I assume if the Golden Leaf Earring is upgraded to FT3 prior to Luclin (somewhere between March 2001 and December 7th 2001), then that is also when Essence of Nature is upgraded. This would put priests at a possible FT3 and intelligence casters at a possible FT5 and making Tunare as sought after as Vulak throughout Velious.

The first mentions of the item are in November 2001

Also Afterlife was the 2nd guild to down Tunare and they did it Oct 13, 2001. I am not sure who the first guild to kill her was but it will be hard to find any information on the item previous to that. So if it didnt have FT3 at Velious launch we may never know.

Afterlife Slays Tunare!
Afterlife trampled the Plane of Growth tonight in preparation for the killing of a god. After only 6 hours of steadily slaughtering trees, bears, thiflings, horses, and everything else that moved, we made our first ever attempt on Tunare. Defeating Tunare is another first for Afterlife on Mithaniel Marr, and we are one of only two servers to have ever killed the god.
Go Afterlife!

I would be interested on the research on Tunare as well. She was changed / broken just about monthly throughout Velious.

Whole dedicated thread to her:

Question, will flowing thought work for bards on this server? According to Thott, FT does not work for bards into 2002 (post-Luclin):

Has mob power increased along with FT? Nope. Many times bards/enc have joined groups, adding mana needed for the group to kill without downtime. Now that mana is available to all. Bard/enc mana is no longer necessary to avoid downtime.

Bards lost relative power due to FT itself, and lost power due to secondary effects from FT. What changed with bards? Nothing, bards were forgotten.

Pre-Fade.. Bards don't have much of a use for mana anyways... But it sounds like it doesn't work for em.

Bards should just consider themselves lucky that they weren't repeatedly raped with the nerf-stick the way necros & druids were during that whole era.
