The dynamis LS I'm part of has defeated the DL before, while it certainly is possible to take down the DL in about a min, it requires pretty much a full 64 people run. Ton's of blm's rdm's and then other melee jobs spamming like crazy. One time we had DL down to 1% and thought we killed him because we all put our weapons up like battle was over. =/ in reality he had just warped like he sometimes does. He ended up coming back and owning us hardcore because all our 2 hours etc.. were spent.

DynamisX on Valefor has beaten DL 3 times in last month in under 1 minute per kill. He has dropped 100 each time, seems pretty guaranteed. Today he ONLY dropped 100, no ring or mantle ;; I haven't seen any fights where he even had a chance but if he were it would be from Ying/Yang respawn. Yang repopped today at 40 seconds intp DL engagement and 30% left and attacked me twice for dmg and missed the other 15-20 seconds worth of attacks until we dropped DL. DL death despawns the pets.
EquilibriumX on Carbuncle just went into Dynamis-Xarc last night for the first time ever. We weren't expecting to go for a win but rather farm and somehow halfway through we decided to go for Dynamis Lord just to see if we could make it there.
Much to everyone's surprise we did end up getting to fight this guy but only with about 3 minutes left to fight him and come up with a plan. So we just stormed him without much of a plan. Many members were without 2 hours and others were weakened after raise from Ying and Yang (who is much harder than this guy IMO).
In about 2 minutes we brought him to about 60% give or take. I don't think we did bad at all on our first run. Expect us to take this guy down sometime in the future once we develop an actual plan for this run XD
My only concern is how much it would suck if you beat this guy with only like 30 seconds left. How would you possibly lot/pass everything and have everyone get the ??? ftw after all the AoE deaths he causes. o.O

I'm thinking like other boss in Dynamis, once you defeat it, you will get an extension for like 30 mins. That's my guess though. One time we beat boss for Windy for like 10 seconds left, and we got 30 mins extension to get everyone up and killed some more regular mobs as they spawn about.
DynamisVengeance on Titan got totally owned by this thing tonight. All our DRKs (me included) went all out with Blood Weapon + Souleater + Kraken club for max DoT, didn't work. Chainspell + Stun did jack sh*t. We all died with 20% left on DL and one of its wyverns left alive which it summoned mid-fight.
I'm incredibly pissed off right now, and deeply shamed.
i have a few question if i may, 1. how many rdm were casting stun?? just one or did you have teams? 2. why are you using Kraken club screw DoT you need to staight up damage him. 3. did you turn your atention to his dragons when he summoned them?? we just killed this guy our plan was.... 1. everyone but mages sleep to 300% tp. 2. bard use soul voice >ballad + ballad the mages then drop and madrigal + madrigal the melee. 3. pull DL. 4. fight took 40 seconds total. i am not saying that we are better than anyone just trying to help.
Please rate me down like people do to everyone >.>
lol, seriously dude. Just have groups of RDMs chain cast stun and get as much refresh as insanely possible on them--have teams to take over when chainspell wears on the previous group--while everyone else blows the hell outta him. Don't give him a chance to do a thing, just keep him stunned.
RDM groups - get like 2-3 in a party with a BRD. Refresh themselves, have BRD 2hr and ballad + ballad then chainspell stun as quickly as possible. When chainspell wears or MP is exhausted have pt leader /t the leader of the next party in line, rinse and repeat.
Melee + all other mages (except whms) 2hr and slam at him as fast and hard as they can. DRGs with Spirit Surged Jump and angon totally rock his world as that is -45% DEF for 30 seconds, as do DRKs with souleater+blood weapon BLMs with manafont, MNKs, WARs, think of EESx8 with -45% def. Our LS even has a few parties of NINs that will reraise themselves then mijin gakure all at once.
All it takes is the right strategy and he goes down like a two bit hooker with an inner ear problem.
My LS killed this big guy yesterday. Got 100 byne bill and Shadow Mantle.
He's not "hard" so much as just frustrating. It's hard to get to him with reasonable time on the clock so it's usually a rush job. He doesn't have alot of HP, but his few skills are annoying.
He can warp around (he leaves shadow copies which screw up targeting) and he can do Oblivion Smash which is the massive damage AoE move, this can wipe the entire group but the range is short and it is surviveable if you are lucky. He also has a knockback + gravity move. Just when you think you're good on all this, he pops Ying and Yang again, his wyverns. They are weaker than the originals, but he will keep repopping them so don't bother fighting them, just try to get DL down as quick as possible. Stun the hell out of him, everyone uses all damage-inflicting 2hrs, and just try to keep him standing still. Melee go all out, 300% TP, icarus wings, 2hrs, every possible damage you can do. Mages just pour on the magic as he's not particularly magic-resistant.
This fight only takes about 3 minutes if you set it all up right.
No, he does not drop AF2. As for what mobs can, any Kindred (Job) can drop any piece, although extemely rare. The demon NMs you need to kill to make DL spawn can drop their jobs AF2 only, ex. Prince Seere is WHM, he has a better chance of dropping the WHM gloves than any other Kindred in Xarcabard. DL, however, does not drop any AF2 or that 10,000 byne. He can only drop Shadow Ring/Mantle and the 100 byne. Hope this helps clear things up ^^.
It says that because of the way Allakhazam's database works. They simply list all the possible drops for that Dynamis on every mob in the zone. The reason for this is that for the most part, that's how Dynamis mobs work. Every single mob, NM or not, can drop any AF2 piece. However, the boss in each zone does not drop anything (with the exception of Dynamis Lord here, who can drop any 100 piece coin, Shadow Ring, and/or Shadow Mantle). Additionally, Xarcabard works a bit different than other Dynamis zones in that it has one NM of each job, and they will only drop the AF of their job. Very rarely, mind you, but more often than it would drop from normal mobs.
As for Dark Crystal: that's just linked to him because it is linked to the Demon family, which Dynamis Lord happens to be a part of. No Dynamis mobs drop crystals, because Dynamis is outside of the conquest system.
As for 10,000 Byne Bill: there is a dumb rumor that he drops that. It's not at all true. Someone just submitted a correction to Allakhazam saying that he did, and they updated it.
As for 1 Byne Bill: who knows. He doesn't drop that either. His only drops are 100 Byne Bill, Lungo-Nango Jadeshell, Montiont Silverpiece, Shadow Ring, and Shadow Mantle. He can (but won't always) drop a single 100 piece. He can also drop both the ring and mantle, or just one, or neither.
This past Wednesday ANexusUnderSeige LS (combination of Arcana Imperii & Journey's End ls's) took down DL for the first time. As far as I know only a small number of Japanese have done this before on our server!
Dy-LordRants ad rants...and knocks all your houses down if you are cuaght off guard, he is drk/avatar (weird huh) but he is the king pimp. that tale of the hunger of power isnt really true shadow lord was built/created by anger and hate for teh loss of his friend. You notice how square makes all the mian villians based off of the they are out to cleanse, or distory those who made them. like FFX's Sin was made by war and the sins of others. sotr of a punishment by Y-veron. shadow lord is the 3 nations hate and own pasts fiendish deeds. all that was tossed into a random soul and made the shadow lord. like jecht to ffx
but na if you made him fight King Vine it would be a hawt battle. king knows a few strong Aoe himself.
[100-Piece Currency] :100% (Or I guess not 100%, see below) Shadow Mantle: Not 100%, more like 33% to 50% Shadow Ring: Also not 100%, about the same as the Mantle.
He does NOT drop:
AF2 for any job 10,000 currency Crystals
Jesus whoever feeds allakhazam this bad information needs to actually get a job to 65 first instead of reporting the first freaking rumor they saw on The Internet.
Edit: Apparently people don't always get a 100 currency, either. In any event he drops the 100 currency more often than either the ring or the mantle, so I'd still confidently call it an 80%+ drop.
This table is also wrong - 100-piece currency is NOT a 100% drop. HydraCorps on Pandemonium, the first NA LS to kill Dynamis Lord on the server, has killed DL twice in the past month.
The first kill by NAs on the server, screenshotted here, was: Lungo-Nango Jadeshell Shadow Mantle Shadow Ring
The second kill, and the one I was personally present for, was: Shadow Ring
That's right, no 100-piece currency, no crystals or AF2, just the ring. HC has another run coming up on Wed 28th '05, I will post the results of the DL kill here after that date.

Maybe you missed it in the excitement, or maybe due to some kind of equipment-changing glitch it didn't show up in your log, but DL definitely dropped a 100 byne bill that second time. I can probably dig up a screenshot from somewhere if you'd like.
I think it's a pretty safe assumption that 100-piece currency drops are 100%.

Hi Sui! ^_^/ Yes, please do dig up a screenshot if you have one - I didn't change any of my equipment (I was weak at the time from the 80% wipe we had, and I don't change equips out of ACC/EVA in Dynamis except to steal) but I did take a look at the treasure pool to pass the ring, and I didn't see any 100 currency. O.o; I could have sworn it was only the ring that dropped.

That the 100 coin is also not a 100% drop is a shocker. Sucks to get all that way through 5 increasingly difficult dynamis zones, give up all those millions of gil for hourglasses and additional millions for the meds/food required to take him down and have him drop...nothing.
I guess if Kirin can drop nothing, then so can the Dynamis Lord. This game sucks. :D
Well, 'dropping nothing' is relative. With Dynamis, it's all a question of angles.
It's been observed through the many many runs of all Dynamis zones in my DLS that while currency drop rates remain fairly consistent, more AF and generally of better quality tends to drop more often after the boss is dead. Last DL run, 2/3 AF drops were post DL's death during 'farming time', both of which were the highly-anticipated THF +TH armlets.

I can see it now, Dynamis Lord is just sitting around, chilling with some other Dynamis Lords. The look at the adventurers, but don't get up off the couch.
Thf goes in and pulls a Dynamis Lord, 3 more link. Shouts of 'ZONE IT, OMFG!!1!!!1' ring out from Dynamis-Xarcabard...
Dynamis Lord is a Gulkan (Galka I like to take the a out) gone 100% bad at the ultimate fulfillment of power. This gigantic powerhouse of a Gulka could frighten dragons and then chain them up as slave pets to his will of violence and doom. All Gulka are torn between their good, civilized natures and their beastlike thirst for pure power. Dynamis Lord could even make Promathia think twice and I'm sure if given the chance this full Shadow Lord would kill Promathia and usurp his place lol.
P.S. I'm one of the good Gulka lol

comparing Wyrm fights to DL is like apples and oranges..... nothing alike... only wyrm fight i think you can compare to DL is the uncapped Ouryo fight in monarch lin... and i say that only because its timed and has max number of ppl alowed in (18), and has prequisites to get to it.

Posted:Sep 07 2005 at 10:52 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) hes an easy solo for my brother thairo killed him by himself np he is my mule my mule killed this nm np u all sayn u need a huge pt just click my name and see my bros char hell kill any nm ever in 2 hits
I like how SE makes the hardest mob in the game a suped up version of the game's original end-game mob (shadowlord). this guy would wipe the floor with vrtra and his little skeleton buddies (lol, would be cool if SE made a hnm vs. hnm arena for laughs). Much credit to anyone who's been involved in his defeat, huge accomplishment.. a lot of coordinatio and communication gone into it. respect.
1 PT of rdm/drk, chainspell + stun 1 alliance of blms + 1 alliance of rng/war with brd ,full attack, DL wont have time to call yin and yang. and will die within one minute.
I saw a vid of an alliance doing just that. It almost worked. IN a few moments, they had him down to 1/10 HP. Then he busted out his AoE WS and leveled everyone ><
I'm on bismarck, and I know he's been beaten multiple time by a hybrid NA/ J linkshell. Iron I believe is the ls. There's also another ls that beat him, but I'll have to get back to you on that. In addition there was a ling somewhere where a player had a 10,000 byne bill for sale & supposedly it dropped off this guy. (different server though ).
