so, jungle mummy is too fucking hard to be bothered with if you dont have masteries, altho probably just need some in defense and the xp mastery, i remember doing it before i had runes (aside from t2 crit dmg runes, yes i know i was a baddie), when i was like lvl 25 or so, so you really just need masteries. I tried starting at blue, wolves and wraiths and all 3 were a pain in the ass (read: u gotta b alot) and slow as hell. Starting at blue, i survived with 15 hp, so you can solo blue with no masteries and just clothx5 opening, but you have to b like right after. Starting at both wraiths and wolves, i found i basically had no mana (and had to b) right after i finished the other.

tldr, dont jungle mummy till you're like lvl 20 or so, mybe more.

I think I started jungling with amumu at like level 8... but it was really inefficient and I had something like 5 hp left if I went for the blue golem first.

After you get like level 10 and spec into defensive mastery it gets a lot easier. I couldn't farm at full efficiency and sometimes I have to wait a good 5-10 seconds to make sure that I have enough mana to take on the camp but it still worked out ok. I can never kill all the camps at first, I had to skip the 2 golems camp because it was a 50/50 chance of me either surviving with 5 hp or dying.

Anyhow I'm positive that I was jungling with no problems whatsoever when I was at level 13-15ish, the level 20+ requirement is ridicious

I posted about that earlier....there is something wrong with golem I think, because sometimes I can do it, but other times he rips me apart.
And I could do it every time before the most recent patch.

In my last game, the hitbox of golem was bugged or something, Mumu was attack nearly at the brush, well out of despair range. I was looking at lane and saw that golem hp wasn't dropping right, managed to run away in time -.-

make sure you're close enough to golem for despair to work. I know there was an issue with being able to fight with golem from a wicked long distance.

@ crazeman, i wasnt doubting the 'possibility' of jungling amumu early on, but its really fucking slow and requires a lot of b's. like i said, i killed golem at like 15hp, and had to b immediately (waiting for hp pots to heal that much would probably have been slower tbh), and not having that lvl up after blue is a pain in the ass, so mybe some xp leech from mid might be necessary, tho doing so at such low hp is dangerous.

edit: and to be fair, the 20 'requirement' was almost completely arbitrary, but from 0, its just too damn slow and i dont really want to bother figuring out the exact minimum masteries needed to jungle, i only promised 0 masteries 0 runes.
