Personally it's just a few button presses to log out then back in. Also you don't lose prowess buffs as long as you don't zone out of wherever it is you're receiving those buffs. 4k points = four beastly shanks, is that really not worth it? Of even an egg, a wine, and a shank. That's a whole black belt for MNK's. that's really sad that they offer items like that and yet people are complaining about logging out then back in. It will not kill you to take 1-2 minutes to do it.
