Insulting people isn't an argument. You were also getting 1 blue an hour on your Monk, so you are also bad using your own logic.

I stand by my original quote, sorry for editing it. Based on your account of how slowly you levelled through 58 and 59, and your "skepticism" of others who are more efficient than you, I think you are bad.

If a monk, who are not known as great soloers is getting the same exp as a shaman, who are known as top-tier soloers... That proves the monk is bad? Logic? Not even once, on your end.

Fungi, Fungi Staff, and JBB are not going to help levelling 55-60 as much as epic will. I've done both. Is MY original point.

Much faster epic root rotting with Paralyzing Earth than slow tanking. 10% per hour. Compared to your 4% per hour slow-tanking with JBB and Fungi / Fungi Staff.

I sold my Fungi at level 55 to buy Torpor and keep it in my bag. Motivation to hit 60. Haven't had a Fungi on my shaman since. Been able to farm enough plat to last me forever on p99 since then.

I was able to level 56-60, 10% per hour, two hours a day, Monday-Friday (usually between 2pm and 4pm) - and it took me a month. 59-60 took me a week, root rotting. Prior to 56, I wasn't root rotting and I was JBB / Slow tanking while Fungi Staff / Fungi Tunic regenned me. Had to play twice as much to go 52-55.

[Fri Oct 15 15:46:58 2021] You have gained a level! Welcome to level 57!

[Wed Oct 27 15:10:36 2021] You have gained a level! Welcome to level 59!
[Fri Nov 05 16:42:50 2021] You have gained a level! Welcome to level 60!

You are still ignoring my primary point, which is selling everything for Epic is a bad move anyway, even if you could go from 1 blue an hour to 2 blues an hour. You save 12 hours leveling, but you will spend more than 12 hours farming for Torpor when you are out of money, and are a 60 Shaman with Epic and no Torpor. That is a really bad tradeoff. Level a bit slower with Fungi Tunic + Fungi Staff + JBB, then sell it all for Torpor and farm that money back faster for Epic or whatever else you want.

Waiting til 60 to get epic on Shaman is not advisable.

I am not sure why you think that, I leveled to 60 with Fungi Tunic + Fungi Staff + JBB just fine, and I got Torpor immediately at 60 from selling them. If a Monk can level at 1 blue an hour, that is an acceptable amount of time for people soloing. Monks wouldn't solo to 60 otherwise. It isn't like you are soloing slower than other classes.
