At first I was going to put this http://www.qcdn.org/viewtopic.php?t=2035 but then I decided its probably better here:
Actually a lot of ppl who look at this forum can do Dynamis runs, the choice of doing them is another. I did a few and decided enough with that BS, and I know a bunch of others who did as well.
SE's idea of giving high lvls something to do instead of camping a HNM for 3 hrs only to have Secret or Ailove come along and MPK their asses makes me want to dip my balls in wasabi and let Synical
munch on them or something.
You think with 64 other 70+ players in one zone you would be a complete badass unit, think again, you're all huddled chickenshits where 2-3 of the mobs will rape you silly. Not only that you are lagged the whole time there, and thanks to the power of the PS2, the number of models on the screen is very limited. Imagine sitting in front of the LJ auction house, now picture your fighting for your life as mobs and players disappear and reappear before your very eyes or you can't see 20 ft from you because the game won't draw them yet.
The only cool thing is when you run into a subboss that charms all your melees and then it orders you to kill all your mages or something... yeah.
You get relic weapons whoopdeshit, I can probably think of 2-3 NAs on my server who will take the necessary time and 15 mil gil it needs to get one of these completed. Most of the AF2 is worthless except for once piece or another.
Then theres some plot behind this crap, well in order to see that you have to do the 4 different Dynamis areas to see the final 2 zones and continue with another award winning epic story arc. So you have to deal with ppl who might only need Dyn-Windy and only go out for Dyn-Windy.
The reward for doing all that crap and dealing with the other nubtaru's training mobs to homecamp and then demanding raise 3 or else isn't worth the time, stress and other things.
