Dynamis Drop Adjustment Testimonials

[Dakana]

Anyone go today yet? Is the drop rate still wonderfuly broken or did they ninja fix it?

[Havok]

Thank you kind sir. Edited my last post with the addition of BLU feet. Down to just COR legs to find in the city runs.

We got COR legs in sandy last night

The drop rate of relic armor in Dynamis has been adjusted. Rates for the following areas in particular have been increased:
Dynamis – Beaucedine / Dynamis – Xarcabard / Dynamis – Valkurm / Dynamis – Buburimu / Dynamis – Qufim / Dynamis - Tavnazia

just in case:

allakhazam.com will tell you, you should check there

15 mins into Beaucedine.... Montion on first pull, RDM on second, RDM BLU on same mob, third pull. <_<

This is nuts. Can't parse though, have to dual-box. :s

EDIT: Another RDM just dropped..................

I was having a debate with some LS members in Xarcabard the other night. We got 2 drops of normal demons before we even got to the NMs. Wasted too much time fighting the NM demons and got 0 drops from all 15 of them. Thus, I'm thinking it's a total waste of time to go after them unless you're specifically going for Dynamis Lord. After our 0/15 relic drops from the NM demons, we went back to farming regular pulls and got another 9 AF drops...

I recommend avoiding the NMs entirely if you're farming for relic. You'll probably spend more than 30 minutes killing them for a 30-minute timer.

Did Xarc Monday night started with 12 people ended with 18, killed a shitton of mobs and got not a single AF2 or 100 piece.

PLD, BLU, COR, NIN, DRK, MNK x2, RNG x2, BRD x2 and M. Silverpiece x1 last night in Glacier which included this:

Farmed some Hydra but no AF2 off them, most of them 4-5 coins and rarely dropped less than that. I believe 1 of the 8 or so Hydra we killed before moving on only dropped 2 coins, with the rest being 4 or 5.

So does this means Xarc NMs could also drop job-specific items and a chance of the 3 new jobs? D: Confused.

beauc NMs are not restricted to only dropping their job's af

[Auronku]

Thanks for the information on Sandoria Hezzel. Updated the list again.

Oh Beau, I thought that was Xarc, hurr hurr learn2read.

But still, do we have any results on Xarc NMs while we're on that train of thought? Perhaps they drop more often from normal mobs to make up for the lack of having 3 new NM, idk.

[Seankp]

That's a good possibility, but this is SE, and I wouldn't put it past them to just completely leave COR/PUP/BLU off the drop tables for the Xarc NMs. With that note, has anyone ever seen an Xarc NM drop an AF2 for a job other than the NM's job? I don't recall this ever happening.

[Fwahm]

SE may or may not have increased drop rates in cities. In particular means they either only increased snow/dream areas, or that they increased them more than they increased cities.
