Myconid Spore King - Monk Solo

[Tewaz]

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.

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?

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

He can't answer the question. We all know why. Thank you for admitting defeat.

LMAO, the degree to which something is a solo or not is the ENTIRE fucking conversation that's been going on! You are failing so badly at trying to deflect.

YOU DID NOT USE ONE CHARACTER. YOU USED 4 CHARACTERS AND REQUIRED A 2ND PLAYER TO LOG ON YOUR ALTS.

Imagine you want to log onto the game for an hour and do the camp. Nobody around to help, you just have yourself. You are NOT capable of doing the camp by yourself right now. How long is this going to take to sink into your fucking head? It's an incontrovertable fact. STOP trying to deny it.

So, now that we've established trying to do a camp with ONE PLAYER ONLY, how can we approach it? If we're trying to achieve the highest tier of solo challenge, then it means using 1 character only. That's one mode of playing. Another mode of playing is wanting to just farm the camp quickly. For that, I linked a video of the best way to do it. Pull with a snare class, then log over to a class that can do the kill (enchanter being the fastest).

You wanting to have another player come buff you is another mode of playing the game. And that's fine, and sometimes might even be the safest way to hold the camp down if you happen to have someone who will always come at your beck and call and not ask for a share of the loot, but it's not SOLO. Thus, it's not an option all the time.

I did kill it by myself. The fact that you think having outside buffs is the same as having other people with you healing and DPSing is just ridiculous.

BUFFS GIVE YOU MORE DPS AND MORE HEALTH

It is the EXACT same thing, in effect, as another player literally casting a heal on you during the fight and casting a damage spell on the NPC.

This entire game is basic math in motion. Everything is a creation of damage or a reduction of damage.

When someone that’s soloing a camp gets outside buffs, do you think the people that buffed the soloer are entitled to a roll on the loot? NO - they’re not!

That has NOTHING to do with the parameters of a solo challenge.

And LOL, wtf are you talking about other people rolling for loot. Swapping between your own characters is YOU only. You're not sharing a roll with anyone else if you do a camp like that. You're using yourself only. LMAO?!?

4 pt DS and 12 AC is irrelevant.

It's 25 AC and no it isn't irrelevant. ANY fluctuation in performance can make a difference in a close fight. This shows how oblivious you are and have likely never done anything competitive in your life where margins are tight and finding razor thin advantages is the difference in winning or not.

I have killed the king solo with and without avatar. It doesn’t make near enough of a difference to eliminate the need for other buffs

You wouldn't know seeing as you've 1.) never ran the numbers, 2.) don't have the gear in the first place to do it, 3.) never played the encounter with offhand fist swapping the whole way through to maximize DPS.

If you can already do the fight with a full bubble of health remaining when you didn't have Avatar up and weren't playing perfectly, then it's possible that Avatar + debuff + damage shield + correct swapping is enough. You're losing 950 HP by having Shielding instead of Aegolism and your haste is only going down by 18%, while your ATK stat is increasingly considerably from Avatar.

toggling the Abashi for max DPS is something that takes a metric fuckton of time and practice to master

You're definitely not a person who has ever engaged in something that takes competitive skill. Clicking on the screen twice after doing an autoattack "takes a ton of time and practice to master". LOOOOOOL.

That idiotic line again. NOBODY IS JEALOUS OF YOU. NOBODY IS OUT TO GET YOU. NOBODY IS OBLIGATED TO TREAT YOU LIKE A PRINCESS.

I have more experience with this game than you do and far more skill as a gamer. Have you ever won tournaments and actual money? Ever ranked high globally at an actual competitive thing? No, you haven't. I don't need to log on and do anything. I've already played more than enough EQ since 1999. It's not the role of a retired athlete to spend their time on the field. They move onto coaching, officiating, or professional analysis to impart their expertise.

I've already gone over the math. VoG + Aego + FoS was mathematically equivalent to 8 or 9 charges of a 10 dose wort pot for OP's video, which is "moderate" usage by your own standards. 2400-2700 HP would be less than a reaper for OP. You have no case, and your own standards show it.

Please stop trolling and spamming the thread with nonsense.

You're the only one here deflecting. No one here but you is trying to compare these kills to the one you linked. They are completely different methods with different self imposed limitations, and are thus completely irrelevant in respect to each other.

This backwards ass logic is so fucking retarded, I'm not even going to respond to it anymore. There's no point, anyone with half a brain can read that sentence and see for themselves what a moron you are. Using 1 character that's buffed to fight the mob is not the same thing as fighting the mob with 4 characters you disingenuous piece of shit.

ROFL, I wouldn't know... AND YOU WOULD??? What kind of fucking crack are you smoking dude? Only 1 of us here has solo'd the damn thing, and it wasn't you. I have ran the numbers, I DO have the gear... do you?? NOPE! But yet I wouldn't know, and you would somehow??? You are straight up delusional.

Here you go making yourself look like a fucking fool again. If it was that easy, every monk would do it. There's a reason we have a 2h toggle Monk DPS Bounty Competition for anyone in <Fuse> to strive for. Do you know how many people have collected on that bounty in about a full year's time? 3 people... out of literally hundreds of monks with raid calibur 2handers. It's not just "clicking the screen twice after doing an autoattack", its learning the full delay of your 2h, and staying in rhythm with it without missing a 2h swing, which its very easy to miss if your timing is even just slightly off. But you wouldn't know anything about that, because you're a clueless newb that thinks fucking steal strength is a viable strat for soloing the spore king without buffs.

If you're not going to log on to put your money where your mouth is in EQ (because you can't), then at least 1v1 me on Call of Duty or literally any FPS of your choice and I will fucking smoke your ass nonstop. Yes, I have competed and won tournaments for money. I've won several local MTG tournaments, and qualified for Day 2 at GP Denver in 2016. I was also the #1 ranked SK world-wide on Magelo rankings during Solteris - Underfoot eras when my guild was competing for world first raid kills after each expansion release, against raids that took guilds weeks to figure out before someone finally broke through.

LOL OK, thanks for finally admitting defeat. You can scream from the sidelines all you want about how much better and smarter you are than all of us, but until you log on and shows us ANYTHING to back up even a shred of the bullshit you claim - you'll be nothing but a jealous little bitch that can't do or prove jack shit.

No coach or professional analyst worth their salt acts like this. Clearly you think you are better than everyone here, and it sounds like you don't even plan on playing anymore. Please move on to a different forum that appreciates your "coaching" and "analysis".
