Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

I don't mind they just nuke as long as they do one thing: RUN THE FUCK AWAY WHEN A STATUE IS HITTING YOU. How it is that BLMs ever manage to die to something that runs half speed is absolutely beyond me, yet I see it all the time.

Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

I hate Statues so very much. I've never had the luxury of being hit by one of their TP moves, which I heard are so very fun to watch, but they smack me easily for 200...

Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

I just don't understand how you actually get hit more than once by one, lol. All you have to do is move away from it.

Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

Our first 4 glacier runs as a shell yielded, 1, 1, 0, and 1 AF, definitely feel your pain.

So far we're at 2 and 0 for Xarc, of the 2 AF reciepients one quit the game 2 weeks later and the other hasn't made a Dynamis run since getting theirs.

Too true ... when I go as WHM, I'm perfectly willing to use ES+sleepga if the situation seems to call for it, which is more the duty of the RDMs really. I also end up using Repose a fair bit, especially on slimes...

Repose is like my favorite spell in Dynamis now when I'm on whm. I guess I shouldn't use it so liberally though. LOL

In my old LS our main WHM did that, it was a full wipe and she thought she was casting R3. Luckily her whole party was still dead so she was the only one out of the zone, but I'm betting they still give her shit for that on Vent.

Funny story about that, a few months later we attended a wedding for two LS members, and we're talking about it on vent as it's going on, since you're not allowed to chat while you're there. Someone gets on and says, "Okay, Calli, Teleport-Vahzl, GO!" and hilarity ensues. Of course she didn't, but it was fucking hilarious to bring it up at the wedding.

I can't tell you how many times I've gotten owned on WHM because I was trying to sleep mobs that the FAILURE RDMs didn't bother sleeping. This just happened in our last run. Then I get up right into a Firaga III that I did't see (filters) and die without RR. And one of the stupid RDMs offers me a R1. I was like .... I just died trying to do a job YOU should have done, I don't think I deserve for your patronizing ass to give me a R1! Most times I don't care, as any Raise is better than HP, but I was so pissed that this RDM stood there with his finger up his ass while I got my face raped by mobs HE could have slept, and then he has the gall to try to offer me R1.

Give the RDMs some slack! We ONLY have 3 Sleep spells, one Insta-Win JA, unlimited MP, and 2 more spells that prohibit a mob's movement!

Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

To be fair I'm literally the only person who keeps track of mobs in Dynamis, and anyone who has previously attempted to help has just fucked it up. It's gotten to where I just tell everyone to not touch anything and let me handle the entire crowd.

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.

Re: Fun with Dynamis! :)

I have yet to try it, the only CoP zone I've cleared is Buburimu, but I've only even attempted about 5 runs, 3 Bubu(2 wins) and 2 failed Valk.
