Well Byrthnoth not sure if you do the whole getting alex off other servers thing but there is a dude with 50 stacks of alex on Sylph for 9k a piece.
Thanks for telling me, but I think I'm done with cross-server buying. I won't be finishing my Mythic within 6 months anyway (Ampuoles), and I could Salvage all the Alex I need before then. I tried to duo Einherjar the other day, which is how I found out about the 6-man minimum requirement, so I'll only be doing it once a week and averaging 2k Amps. It's going to take me a long time to finish.
Also, I'm starting to suspect that certain monsters only drop certain Accessories, but they changed it from what it used to be. Snolls, for instance, give me a lot of MNK, BST, and DRG but not much else.
Completed Dynamis-Tav, just throwing out some things that might be good to know:
EDIT: Forgot to note, Did the whole run with subjobs unlocked
- 4 extension statues on lvl 2, 1 in the outer ring (quadav stat), 2 in the back corners (moogle and AH spots), and one down below in the middle area, all called prototypes, all 10 mins
- 1 extension on lvl 3, down below in the middle area, prototype eye
- Mobs on lvl 2 seemed to be the only ones that dropped herald's juju pop item for NQ Diabolos Boss
- Mobs on lvl 3 dropped tomes for the new HQ boss: Kindred Mob dropped #15, Leeches Dropped #16, Bombs Dropped #17
- The Diabolos Boss popped from Herad's Juju seems to be a random 1 of the 4 from the original Tav (1st one we popped was Heart, 2nd one Spade), drop Tome #14
- Use the 4 Tomes to pop the HQ boss, for us was Diabolos Somnus
- Boss was a pretty easy fight with Ochain pld but w/o it the main moves he did Sweeping Somnolence and Nether Tempest did pretty good damage to other melee
- He did Ruinous Omen omen just once at 49% that we observed
- Couldn't really figure out the rhyme or reason to the damage immunities but were times when melee did 0 and magic did 0 so possible it has some cycling nature or its tied to TP moves
- He did seem to resist damage more when it landed during TP moves (Average nukes of 500ish were hitting for more like 100 when landed on TP)
- Overall damage was slow because of this and killed it with 2 minutes to spare
- Gave title Nightmare Illuminator and dropped Alucinor Mitts

Which of the arch bosses did you get?
Got Diabolos Somnus. Appears to be random like the NQ bosses though because the other earlier Tavnazia report said they had fought a "Diablos Nox"
That could be annoying, especially because it seems likely they have different drops. I wonder if it's day/moon/whatever dependent.
Not sure if it's been said or not but going from the above I'd take a wild guess at Aife, Moepapa and Tjukurrpa items all being dyna items.
And the Rings + Aife's Pumps, Moepapa Pendant and Tjukurrpa Belt all coming from HQ zone bosses as those items are RA/EX whilst everything else is just RA.
That would at least match up with normal dyna.
EDIT: Portus gear probably fits in there somewhere too. That is similar stats but all RA/EX.
Ok, just finished doing a Tav run, here's what I got:
Proc types:
Worms: 0-8 WS, 8-16 Magic, 16-0 JA
Bees: 0-8 JA, 8-16 WS, 16-0 Magic
Tauri: 0-8 WS, 8-16 JA, 16-0 Magic
Makara: 0-8 Magic, 8-16 JA, 16-0 WS
Clusters: 16-0 WS (Didn't have time to check the rest of the day to see which procs were which)
Leeches: 0-8 WS, 8-16 Magic, 16-0 JA
I found it kinda odd that Tauri and Makara were both JA at the same time, but not magic or WS at the same time.
Drops:
Worms: Whiteshells
Bees: Bynes
Tauri: Whiteshells/Bynes/Bronzepieces
Makara: Bronzepieces
Clusters: Bronzepieces
Leeches: Whiteshells
DRK body-1 from a leech.
RNG legs-1 from a bee, WHM legs-1, SAM legs-1, BLM legs-1, DRG legs-1, SMN legs-1 from worms.
Hope this helps out!
The difference was probably due to the Taurii dropping more than 1 type of currency, where as Makara only dropped Bronzepieces (and, it can be assumed given the pattern in the other zones, that Makara and Clusters share the same proc pattern given they both drop Bronzepieces and are both WS proc 16:00-24:00, given that Worms and Leeches, both Whiteshells, follow the same proc pattern)
Done Tavnazia 3 times now and noticed like you that tauri drops all 3 types of currency, but also noticed that they have a complete random proc for every mob. So for Tauris time of day doesnt matter, its just completly random.
Can confirm Makara and Leech currency drops and proc pattern and can also add that the 2 Bugards in the basement has 00:00-08:00 WS > 08:00-16:00 MA > 16:00-00:00 JA for procs.
If Tauri drop all 3 kinds of currency it would make sense for them to proc anything at any time, as the procs are not mob based but currency based, so yeah.
And btw we got tome 17 from leech so maybe they are random from floor 3 mobs then.
CoP NMs are the same way as what you're describing for Tauri. I JA procced Suttung in each 8-hour window.
Some data on AF Accessory drop rates, I don't think it's as easy as "anything in zone can drop anything" There's more to it. It looks to me like monsters have one or two "primary drops" and then also have a low chance to drop anything.
Spoiler: show
Excellent, I was going to start a post earlier about trying to reinforce my "mobs have static drop choices" idea because after another Bubu run today, the same stuff dropped... Again!
Area: Dyna-Bubu
Crabs: MNK-1 BRD-1 NIN-1 RDM-1 ... BRD Acc
Crawlers: BST-1 DNC-1 PLD-1 THF-1* ... DRK BLU Acc
Mandy: PLD-1 WHM-1 DRK-1 THF-1* ... WAR Acc
These are just my own results from today. Perhaps, for the time being, we should compile a list of what drops what to see if there is a pattern. I tried looking at the old drop pattern (which accessories dropped in what zones, see if they match up, but they don't). Might be worth a shot, but can't hurt to try, rite?
Additionally, with the ability to get -1 upgrades so readily, the wait-a-week cockblock on the upgrade needs to be gotten rid of. Bit short sighted to make Dyna accessable every day, but not allow you to upgrade stuff as readily.
(*the THF-1 from a post someone made citing a log they pulled with it dropping off of Mandy/Crawler, they still elude me so!)
Where are the pop items for NMs coming from? Are those only available while subjobs are restricted? I've been killing NMs, monsters, all the dragons, and mobs ranging from ep to tough mostly on the eastern wide open side where the TEs are (didnt go past the orcs) and not ONE lost NM pop item has dropped. Juju's to pop AB came freely off of normal nightmare mobs.
EDIT:
Nevermind! Got a nightmare chop off the tough nightmare dhamels. Only one we saw in 2 hours. I guess the tough (to 95) mobs around the pops are the ones we need to kill.
