Too bad so sad, but it was needed. The time of 36+ people Dynamis is over and done. Sorry to say but welcome to post-abyssea FFXI where almost everything can be done with six people or less. (Einherjar being an exception.) If anything, most of the Neo-Dynamis changes are quite welcomed, especially the abolishment of 500K to pay for Timeless Hourglass.

Only thing that bugs me about the Neo-Dynamis is the need to stagger the mobs, but eh, the way I See it, it just makes you work for th edrop.

Einherjar is actually really easy with 6, if you're not terrible.

The stagger system ruins it? Is it that hard to kill 5 statues and actually...you know, use your job abilities, magic and WS beyond just spamming empyrean WS? Let alone go with some friends?

Getting procs is obnoxious and lowers kill speed considerably and just kind of drives me insane. So yes, it is to much trouble to do much besides voke once to pull, engage, ws when you have 100tp and play your WHM alt. Its not like I can just cast dia on something and magic proc it with my mule, usually I have to spam dia/dia2 for 30 seconds and use a third of my MP pool to proc stuff. Talk about annoying and something I do not wanna do. What so wrong with just having currency drop the way it use to without BS proc systems?

Get friends then? Its not hard getting a small group of people together to work towards a common goal. Right now, I'm helping my friend get his GK relic (or Apoc, trying to talk him into doing that one) done, and we are close towards that goal, which is good for him. Don't need to duo-box it, you can, you know, ask your friends (assuming you have friends) to help you out.

Do you even understand the basic concept of what I said?
Get friends to help? What is that suppose to do? I can do it fine by myself, it's just really obnoxious and tedious and effing stupid and not fun and I don't want to. So, why in the world would I ask my friends to do something that is obnoxious and tedious and everyone hates, that I can solo if I wanted to do it, especially considering there would be NOTHING worthwhile in it for them? Only jerks would ask for help with something like that, not friends.

there was four problems with those "old dynamis" (shells):

- strategies: lol every single dynamis shell ive been in used the same crap strategies, every single. PLD tank LOL? seriously this is dynamis. Mobs died in 5 seconds even at 75... Some people thought you couldn't do xarcabard without at least 6 BLM, and shit like that.... because they only knew 1 strategy and dont wnt to change.

- leech: people leeching af, by being afk or clueless/gimp. too many people thought they could join a ls and wait for gear to drop in their invo. this brought facepalm scenari where linkshells of 20+ couldn't full clear city zones, that was very easy with non gimps and non afk. This haven't changed with abyssea though.

- coins distribution. im not farming your relic, farm it on your own. I've got enough work with farming my own. People splitting coins was even more facepalm worthy imo. 4 coins ( 40k) for 4 hour of my work? are you kidding me. at least with ~10 people full clearing you could go away with 50 coins wich would be decent.

- AF2, AF2+1, acc, hydra gear, were mostly junk, except 1 peice per set, maybe.

the whole concept of bringing up to 64 people to compete and lot on the 3 AF that drop during the 4 hours is just silly.

Change is good, but variety is better. It would have been preferable to have left Dreamlands in the old style, rather than changing them over and completely eliminating an event from the game.

I agree because they removed the dreamlands zones from the game.



....They didn't? Huh weird. Guess nothing was eliminated.

So an event that plays very differently from another is the same event simply because they take place in the same zone? No, that's silly.

Neo-dynamis might be superficially similar, but it provides a distinctly different experience than old dynamis did.
