    Dynamis Duoing?

    So, I'm heading to Dyn-Xarc tonight and it's all nice and empty. Then a bit later, I see this:

    Wasn't there some sort of rule against that or something?

    If not, it's fucking annoying.

    This. With the glass price dropping, expect to see a shitload of zone ganking and lowman Dynamis.

    Square Enix, where "instanced content" is a no-no phrase. That's super annoying but as far as I know there is no rule against it, they paid for glass they get the zone.

    There is no rule against it, because there's already in-game things to moderate Dynamis. It's not sufficient, but if you do something like enter, then log out or warp out for more than 10min, it'll cancel the zone if no one's in it. There's really nothing else against it which sucks.

    Umm its not that bad really. If you go in duo your likely not doing any TE's. Maybe, Maybe the first one which isn't that long iirc (been a few months since i broke the dynamis LS i ran). Personally when I duo'd the berith, well trio'd (whatever fuck the technicalities read my LJ for details) we finished him with time to spare and just left since there wasn't time to kill the blm mob or whatever.
    There was also no pointing killing someone to get the first TE since 1hr is definetly enough for any of them.

    So no, its not anoying, chill out for 1hr.

    First extension is easy to get and if you're a "lowman" group as opposed to a duo, you can get 3 extensions easily, making it 2.5 hours.

    I thought I read something about a lowman group getting successfully GM'd out of Dynamis because they didn't have enough to actually win the zone. I know I'm not making this up.

    Hopefully they got a refund at least. Otherwise, that's just incredibly retarded.

    If you pay for it, you should at least get reimbursed if you're not allowed to stay in the zone. Personally, lowman groups are fine with me, as long as they don't interfere with other linkshells' scheduled dynamis runs. Although, if they do go in, as annoying as it may be that they're cockblocking you, they did pay, so to be forcibly removed by a GM is just incredibly retarded.

    This is a legal cockblocking. Just suck it up.

    A RDM can solo the first TE easily, the rest are preety much not worth trying as a duo. A low man group can get to just about anything in any zone obviously but duo, first statue only; 2nd one ... killing 2 eyes and a stat with a sac everytime on highly resistent eyes... no thanks.. 3rd requires pullss.... 4th requires killing all NM's ... so yeah, no thanks >,>

    I'm just pointing out the fact that low man groups don't belong in this thread

    Low man group doesn't necessarily mean 6-10 people, it can mean as little as 4, which could get three extensions total without much difficulty.

    It's relevant to the thread because it's all part of the larger problem that's going to become even more of a problem after the update.

    How is this that much different than a rdm that take 3 hours to solo some random forced pop or something else?

    If you're smart you would offer them help to kill it and give them all drops so they can go on their way and you can pop your NM.

    That is how it's different? Perhaps you should offer the guy in the dynamis zone to help them clear the entire zone and let him get the 1 drop he's after and you take the rest (and a free glass).

    I never said I thought this was a huge problem, it just seems to me like it's been a part of the game forever, and now suddenly people are upset because it's happening in Dynamis.

    uh gl convincing your rdms, or blms to give up their lot they've been waiting for to pass to some random guy not in your ls, I am sure they'll love that idea
