    Dynamis Beau/Xarc/Sandy Question, Need proofs!

    I was told that Dyna Xarc/beau/sandy mega bosses do NOT give time extensions.

    For some reason I am inclined to disagree, because I was pretty sure my first Dyna Lord gave an hour extension.

    And that Sandy had give me a few 30 minutes.

    Does anyone have pics of these wins with the extension being given?

    Or is what they say, true? Since I am not 100% sure I won't call them liars, but maybe they've just had bad luck with them and that's what they think.

    Don't think I ever saw one off Beau, but I could be wrong.

    Thanks!!

    They don't give extensions. Sandy has the same 2:30 of extensions as the other zones, but the boss isn't part of that. Beaucedine has ten 15 minute extensions totaling 2:30. Xarcabard has five 30 minute statues, the last of which is the eye-wall statue before the dragons.

    The other three zones' bosses give 30 minutes each.

    That's what I wanted, I'll give due apologies. Thanks, man.


    I still felt like we got one from Dyna Lord tho. I remember being pumped and people saying "we got an hour to farm whooo" that sort of thing, but I can't recall if we just killed extremely fast and it was leftovers. >.> hehe.

    typically if you have enough people to kill DL, you burn through the time extensions and NMs fast enough that you have almost 2hrs to blow on DL.

    Rumours have it that killing DL or a Mega-Boss raises the drop rate... but I think it lowers it lol...

    The only time I notice an increase in drop rates is from repops, more often than not that's when our AF2 floods come in. Unfortunately Xarca has no repops, or is that really fortunately? Since most repops are decently higher level than the rest of the mobs in the zone

    I'm 100% positive I've gotten a TE on Sandy and Beady Megas. Maybe not DL but I thought we did there as well.

    I know for a fact because Sandy was recently and I had someone bitching to me because we had another 30m and Beady was a long time ago but we had the extra 30m to go find someone who got lost, died and needed key item.

    Maybe both glitched? I know we got them though.

    No. Megaboss in Sandoria does not give a TE at all, and you are simply mistaken.

    The final TE in Sandoria is when you kill the Ninja NM from the manor.

    Yea I know about the ninja and I know Mega gave a TE once. As I said, maybe it was glitch. It was like 2 months ago and I remember it clearly. Plenty of other shit has glitched in Dynamis on us before.

    A glitch in your memory I'm guessing.

    You'd have to convince more than just him, I've been doing dynamis pretty much since it's came out, lead a dyna LS through the cities multiple times in a year, and have never seen the boss give me +30 mins, only the ninja NM.

    Infact I remember before when we were too scared of the nin NM, we had 30mins less in this zone than the other cities due to boss not giving us goodness.
