Gotcha.

This is an example of cognitive dissonence in the wild, and it's quite interesting.

You just don't understand basic math. Aego + FoS is 1500 HP, which is 5 Wort Pot Charges. Monks have 40% spell haste with Epic, and Monk Epic gives more attack than VoG. The extra DPS from +18% haste would simply translate to another Wort Pot or two. The extra HP would give 1 more Wort pot via mend. Even by Zur's standards, 8 Wort Pots is less HP than a reaper.

OP could have done his video with a reasonable amount of wort pots instead of raid buffs. OP was just smart and saved money with buffs. Your point is moot even by your own standards.

Reposting OP's epic video where he kills Fungi King solo with his monk, no consumables:

It deserves the highest ranking of [S] when following the solo artist challenge wiki page. Please note the wiki page was changed after OP did his video, and the changes are still in dispute. [S+] did not exist as a rank previously.

If having raid buffs is such a small advantage, just click them off. Seems pretty easy to achieve a solo kill if you think the buffs contribute so little.

Let me ask you a question. Let's say you are self buffed only, and do not have see invis on as a buff or worn effect. If someone runs by during your solo kill with a bracer of the hidden and gives you see invis, does that mean the fight was no longer solo?

To be clear, the see invis buff gives you no benefit during the fight. There isn't an invisible mob/player you need to keep track of. The mob does not dispel, so you aren't using it as a junk buff.

I'll wait for your answer. The math on how much benefit OP got from VoG + Aego + FoS is easy to do, especially when we have the video. We can convert the benefit of these raid buffs into a specific number of Wort Pot charges.

Another argument in bad faith. Just a typical DSM post.

I for one, think you should solo the king completely naked except for 10 corpsed reapers and Invoke Death pet from White Dragon Tooth. Then I will personally feel okay about it.

[Skarne]

nah hes gotta do it after deleting all his gear, death looping to 5, reding to 60, and THEN do it with no consumables or buffs. Also, only joystick inputs allowed. Only then will it be legit.

You can answer my question at any time. Simply asking questions after mine isn't a valid strategy to avoid the question I asked you first. Here it is again:
