Re: Fun with Dynamis!

It's like the most obvious and most important rule of Sky, too. "DON'T CAST ANYTHING EXCEPT AT A ZONE LINE OR WHERE WE HAVE CLEARED THE MOBS OUT!!!!" Yet people still try to sneak themselves right next to weapons and wonder why they get smacked in the face. Um, duh?

Granted, if you know the range of magic aggro then have at it. Me, I don't take any chances when it comes to shit like lag or things that somehow aggro me through solid walls. (Yes, I have this kind of luck!) I bring oils every time.

I know in Dynamis that's not an option since shit is true sight/sound but yeah, magic aggro is way bigger than sight and sound aggro, and you can get around shit fairly easily if you pay attention and listen.

... if you pay attention and listen.

Listen? Pay attention?? What are these foreign concepts you speak of!?

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

Case and point....We went to do some ZNM's and we were deep in Halvung I believe where there are true sight trolls. We are at a gate and talking about TRUE SIGHT TROLLS over and over. Look there are some straight ahead! What happens 1 min later as we all move on through the area? Our rng runs right out amongst 3 trolls and dies. Then she says "I don't get it, I had sneak AND invis up. What's with these mobs!??"

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

And never stopped for a second to ask herself, "Wait ... why do they keep saying 'true' before 'sight'? Does that mean something different?"

We don't just say it for the fun of typing T R U E dumbasses, there's a reason.

You wonder sometimes if they are from counter Earth and speak Gorean.

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

No, our RDMs really are retarded. All the BLMs are dead but there's mobs still awake. I KNOW LET'S JUST ALLOW THEM TO WANDER AROUND KILLING PEOPLE ONE BY ONE SO WE ALL DIE.

That sounds a bit like all the melee that were just standing about because nobody was calling a target ... both our assists went down and there was just a BIT of running about going on (death-pull gone wrong, you can imagine) on the part of people who might have been able to straighten it out and at least kill some things.

After that, when we killed the mega, somebody decided that "keep to the south" didn't apply to them and ran away ... straight into the group of mobs that had repopped. I learned something interesting there: you CAN cast on people you can't see or target, just type it all in and watch for your MP dropping...

Oh come on! Could have done Sandy or Bastok easy! I'll give you a break on Windy because, depending on your idiot saturation, this could be a bit harder. Push them! Make them do smaller man Dynamis's! You can always fake d/c if it goes bad.

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

We had like 21 pieces of AF drop yesterday in Jeuno. The server record was 27 I think.

I like these shoes.

My LS is a night time LS, and they have a rule when you enter dynamis you have to put your clock on your bazaaar for 1 gil, if you fall asleep they'll buy it and it'll warp you out. Or something like that. It seems pretty nice to me.

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

LS did Xarc on Sunday, big surprise.

IDK about currency, but only WHM (Hands, I think) dropped. I'm going to sign in today to see if we're doing Dreamlands again Wednesday.

Aren't Dreamlands made for smaller groups?

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

Yes, 36 only.

I'm pissed at my shell about something. Someone dual-boxed a guy for Beaucedine on Saturday. Said guy was up for RDM body. It dropped. He got. He wasn't there.

NOT
FUCKING
COOL

The leadership knew about it, but said because there was no previous rule in place, he wasn't actually breaking a rule.

SO THEN LET'S MAKE ONE FOR NEXT TIME KTHXBAI.

Really irritated me, he doesn't deserve that body. It wouldn't have been mine (I was third, now second) but still. Bullshit.

Yep that is BS. It's happened in my ls too but not in Dynamis. We did JOL and the torque dropped and they had the guys character there to get the torque but he wasn't actually on. They went on and on about how he deserved it and if anyone felt that he didn't they should speak up..........YA RIGHT. Speak up and get your ass on the shit list and never see a drop again for your time in the ls.

Re: Fun with Dynamis!

I have spoken up about it in our LS forums. We have a complaints section, believe it or not. In fact, I'll even pre-empt the "POIDH" by screenshotting it and posting here.



And my post, quoted:

I don't know if anyone else is not at all cool with Ix getting body when he wasn't technically there, (he was dual-boxed so he could lot, for those who don't know) but I have a problem with this. It still wouldn't have been mine so that's not the issue. The issue is that people have missed Dynamis lots of times and missed out on things that dropped. Why should this be any different. If Ix's character was actually being played, being useful in the zone, I could see it, but it's not fair to those of us who came to Dynamis on Saturday.

I do hope that you guys would consider putting a rule in place that prevents this sort of thing from happening again. All of us should be required to be present and useful to the LS to be able to lot.

Really to me it just seems like an unfair way of circumventing the rules, and I know what was said on vent was that it wasn't cool, but there was no law against it. So I'm just wondering if there actually will be, so this can be prevented. Thanks.

Very respectful and all, but letting them know that I think this is BS. Just in a nice way.
