    First off the new Dynamis is super addictive and awesome! I try to go everyday so I can finish my relic and I am about done which is about time because I am starting to feel like a slave to Dynamis. But thank you SE in making it such a fun waste of time!

    If what I post doesn’t belong in this tread feel free to move it. Everything seems to be everywhere here.

    I agree that the system is broken, but not in the way posted above. I think it is broken in a couple of other ways:

    1. The city zones are broken because of the design, it's designed for parties to go in and whip some a$$ with lots of different mobs in lots of different area's which is nice for those team oriented runs, but blah who want's to grind like that all the time like the old days for 15 – 20 currencies when you can get better results. On an average run with JA proc's one can make 130+ if the dreamland zones are moderately empty (10-15 peeps) with horrible gear. When I go with my group for fun on Wednesdays we make 300+ and then have to divide that by nearly 8 people, which equals low numbers. So honestly what would you rather do 130+ daily or next to nothing?

    2. Not enough camps/mobs in zones. Again I am a solo player, I don't duo box or trio box or quad box so it frustrates the hell out of me when I go into a zone with zomg one person in it (thinking it'll be a great run) and right after I entered everyone and their brother who also saw that the zone had one person in it entered nearly at the same time and now my dreams of a great run turn into a wasted two hours because the trio boxer's are coming and snagging all the mobs right up (You know who you are you greedy &#&%). Sure I can get a couple at first, but then when the repops come the duo/trio/quad boxers get the majority. Oh sure there are other camps, but who wants to fight Urganites!

    3. Time and time limits - So you get two hours one time a day in dynamis. Plenty of time in my opinion, but, what's the window of opportunity? During the work day when people are working or at school? No, it's when everyone is home with a pizza or a beer or both in front of them. Let's all go together! Packed zones, lot's of blacklists, frustrations, and shouting matches! So really with 24 hour access most people in their lives have small time frames to go in.

    Suggestions to consider:
    1. Make the Zilart mobs proc by anything like the Tarus’s in Tavnazia or have them cluster together in types of mobs like the three JA camps in Xarcabard (referred to as 3 – 6 – and Outpost camps).
    2. Make the city TE’s easier to get, spread the mobs out a bit more with a smaller chance of agro
    3. Why not offer White proc’s in cities too!
    4. Make it so if you log out or DC in Dynamis your time doesn’t count down. If the zone gets packed, no problem log out and try again later.
    5. Dream Zones – make the mobs repop faster, the more that die the faster they pop. This may prevent the trio boxers from just annihilating all while the solo’rs sit off to the sidelines and want to smash they’re $1000 computer in or get pissed off when someone cuts them off in traffic (side effects). Yes, this may have an adverse effect if bigger groups go in, but most solo’rs do not go in when the zones are packed.

    In closing nothing is perfect and I understand that you don’t want to discourage trio boxers. If someone were to ask me if I wanted $45 or $15 I’d probably say $45. Just if you could keep us in mind. I’ll still do my runs; I’m nearly done with this hog wash! And of coarse, I'm just a player and I'm sure you have already thought of all this stuff and have your reasons and logic for why things are they way they are.

    Trio boxers are "greedy &#&%"? Maybe you should look at the bsts who have their pet fight 1 mob, and they fight another. Sure they constantly go yellow, but trying to acquire higher enmity than a pet whos done 40% dmg to it to make the mob go red isnt exactly easy without any real hate tools.

    So 1 guy playing 3 characters holding 3 or more monsters with no chance of losing them is less greedy than a BST fighting the one he pulled and the one that aggroed, and losing both when that trio comes over and provokes both out from under him? Yeah, that makes sense.

    By the way Nynja, can you explain why you keep stealing the ones I'm fighting even when there's plenty of unclaimed monsters around I'm not even fighting?
