It’s a neat toy to play around with but is not hugely game-changing.

My impression: a mouth-breather or less-skilled player will find success spamming JBB. A more talented player can pass that break-even point from 52 onward and actually end up ahead without a 10-15k "toy". We can agree to disagree on this point but ... If the OP wants to be an iksar ... THEY SHOULD BE AN IKSAR. JBB is not worth crying a damn river or filtering through 80 pages of napkin math for. It doesn't make or break anything. Quit being obtuse.

blah blah blah
an iksar shaman will be just fine without a JBB. Real shamans did levels 1-50 without it. Skilled players don't need it 51-60. Sorry you suck? Edit: good night my sweet prince. I have to go to sleep now because I am a gainfully employed adult.

Your idea that "skilled" players do not need it is simply a fantasy right now. You are just trying to boost your own ego, as you didn't use your JBB all the way to 60. Quote:

Hi hello I’ve leveled four shamans to 60 in my time playing P99. I’ve also accomplished a good portion of the Solo Artist Challenge on several toons.
Blue - Troll Shaman (no JBB or Epic) Blue - Barb Shaman (JBB, no Epic) Green - Iksar Shaman (no JBB, Epic) Green - Ogre Shaman (JBB, Epic) JBB felt very useful from 45-52 or so. I saw a drastic drop off in use on both the Barb and Ogre as I gained in levels beyond that. It still had occasional use at 55+ and very marginal use at 60, but it was mostly a neat toy at best. Regen has felt useful to me at all levels. I really quite like it at 60 with Regrowth effects and Aura of Battle, it feels really substantial when solo farming or soloing hard content. FSI has felt mostly useless in all content, really only showing its value in soloing hard content and even then rarely. I’d say in terms of practical application and certainly in how it feels to play any of the characters, Regen > FSI (stuns are annoying, they don’t inhibit your ability to kill a hard target). Epic is far superior to JBB in my opinion, and certainly if you have a Fungi. I would always pick Epic for leveling, and considering Epic has broad and far reaching use at 60, and JBB has at best marginal use, I’d say JBB is more of a fantastic leveling item than anything else. The character I’ve accomplished the most on is the Iksar Shaman. I’ve achieved a huge number of solo artist challenge content on him, and I personally love the look. All in all, play what you want to look at for hundreds if not thousands of hours. None of the racial bonuses will change your gameplay substantially. I’m partial to regen and I’ve found it the most impactful in feel. Others will argue differently, and that’s okay. Edit: You need none of the tools to level to 60. Yeah, it’s a bit slower. Leveling is where you build the fundamentals, don’t let an item skip them all for you. Leveling with JBB is mathematically faster. Epic is likely on par, Epic with fungi I believe outpaces JBB with Fungi (hard to test this and honestly who the fuck cares). Pick what’s fun, enjoy the game. You can do it all on any race. | ||

Both FSI and Regen are small bonuses once you hit 60. FSI is simply better due to Regen falling off due to Torpor. Quote:
