Is Dynamis really worth it?

[Bladers]

just got lvl 65 and i'm already in a Dynamis linkshell. We are doing Dynamis-Bastok in like 3-4 days. But i was wondering.

Is loosing exp from dying and paying around 20-25k to get in actually gonna pay off? First off to let you know i'm a drk so my Relic armor isnt even that great anyway. Its still not bad.

The main reason i wanna do dynamis isnt for my relic armor but for the relic scythe. So for those of you that have been there, do you ever see any relic weapons drop? and how often do you see relic armor drop? Is dynamis worth it?

It's not just about getting stuff there you know.

[Synbios]

If your LS is desperate enough to take level 65 melees in, hardly possible they'll win.

[TabanDarkmoon]

Maybe they're just confident enough to take those melee's in :spin:

[Gman]

From what I read you dont lose experience if you die in dynamis.

It is worth it but not at your level

[Thark601]

yeah i can't wait to go, but then again i'm not even gonna try till i'm 70

[Vinen]

The first NA Dynamis LS on Titan just went last night, had a large chunk of the LS being 65-70, heck we almost beat Dynamis-Windurst on our first attempt. We had just gotten the final time extension when we had a 20 or so monster pull that plowed us over. This was right after dealing with 5 Summoner Type Monsters.

I can't wait to go, but I just hit 65 last night, gonna be a couple weeks

[Ljarin]

How many of the trigger NM's did you get on your first try in windy?


[edit] you do loose experience when you die in dynamis.

[Corrado]

Rose Family ls on carbuncle beat dynamis-beaucedine with 43 people, so I guess taking along a further 22 other random people doesn't matter much to the outcome.

How many of the trigger NM's did you get on your first try in windy?

I dont really remember, we were split into 3 alliances and I never really saw what the front alliance killed. but we were at about I belive Shantoto's house, we went clockwise around heaven's tower. We had gotten all the time extensions that there was.

We had 2 bad pulls that hurt us pretty bad, no actual complete wipes untill the end when we had 40 minutes left, I belive. Not to mention having a Avatar get a Astral Flow off was kind of painful as sleep broke the instant the Yagudo used Astral Flow ><.

The main reason i wanna do dynamis isnt for my relic armor but for the relic scythe

The relic scythe is lv75, and I'm going to assume most dynamis runs will prioritize DRKs that can equip the item, then the higher level DRKs, which means you will get very low priority.

Ever seen the cost to upgrade the relic scythe to lvl2? I just know that it will cost me almost 2 million gil to upgrade the first time, plus 400 dynamis coins(which is very hard to get) for the relic sword. You can't really use relic weapons outside dynamis until they have been upgraded at least 2 times, because before that it'll be D: 1 DLY: 999

do you ever see any relic weapons drop?

Yes, and for some reason certain dynamis drops alot of certain relic weapons.

how often do you see relic armor drop?

Same as relic weapons, as in some armor drops are very common, and some very rare. But overall I think relic weapons drop more than relic armor.

Is dynamis worth it?

At your level as a melee, I don't think it is worth it, unless you go there just for the experience. If you're planning to get relic stuff, I doubt you can get them unless you're the only DRK there, or unless the LS gave you priority to get relic items over the other DRKs attending.

As a melee 65 you won't hit much and expect to die a lot if this is one of the first Dynamis your LS is trying.
Usually with wipeouts you'll have to eat Raise 1 and 2 so be sure to have a decent buffer.
Other than that, with good leadership and talented LSmates, its really fun.

[Max People]

64 people

[Reservation Time]

Time allowed in Dynamis is exactly one hour from the moment a player trades a timeless hourglass to a set of
trail markings. However, by defeating certain enemies, a group can extend the amount of time they are allowed
in the area (Max 210min).
A message will be displayed if the time limit becomes closely. (10min ago / 3min ago / 30sec ago)

[Leaving Dynamis]

Even if a player leaves Dynamis through magic or being KO'd, he can reenter the same area without restriction,
as long as it is within the designated time of the perpetual hourglass.

[Reentering Dynamis]

Upon entering Dynamis, you will be unable to reenter using a different hourglass for three days (Earth time).
At any time, you may check the amount of time remaining on this restriction by investigating the trail markings.

[Clear conditions]

It is clear if investigated the "???" after defeated the boss in area. (Keyitem comes to hand. & Title changes.)

[Death Penalty]

Even if it dies from Dynamis, there is Experience points Lost.

Seems I misread the above bolded statement... my mistake.
