Tavnazia Tumult
Dynamis-Tavnazia is so much fun. It is what makes all those hours spent in cities and northlands worthwhile. The quality of drops are questionable, but the overall fun from doing it is worthwhile. A good Dynamis-Tavnazia always teeters on the edge of collapse. An exceptionally bad pull, people not paying attention, or no drops mixed with a Diabolos kill always turn into a depressing run. While getting a win for new people is always good for them those of us who have been around for awhile get sick of repeating it after leeches take it and stop participating.
One thing I don't understand is why the red mage were not trying to silence the magic users we were fighting. Demon and hydra red mages were casting for the entire duration of chainspell. The worm almost successfully casted three -ga spells. The first thing I do when engaged with a mage that I know can cause significant damage or heal themselves is cast silence when I know it won't resist. Oh well, we had enough stuns that nothing bad happened.
Last night we did Tavnazia and the results were pretty good. The goal was -1 bodies from leeches. Everything went relatively well although some things were done a little slow. The worst part is that we only killed three taurus. Only three chances at hydra armour is depressing. The leeches ended up giving us one melee cyclas -1 that went to me. It is going to be two weeks before Sagheera will return it to me. I already have her upgrading a piece of warrior af and I don't want to risk handing in more items for a Dynamis upgrade. I doubt I would lose them, but it isn't worth the risk. I now have melee gaiters +1 and melee cyclas +1. The body is probably the most difficult of the items to upgrade, so I'm glad it is done or will be soon.
We also earned two -1 legs from the bees. Red mage and dragoon. Not great, but better than nothing. I hope we do taurus next. They are what make Dynamis-Tavnazia great. I guess this Dynamis was a success with one moderately useful -1 body . Heres hoping for more next time.
I forgot to take pictures of all the fun. A great time for a picture would have been as a big train of leeches ran by us from someone who had went the wrong way during a confusing pull six minutes before the end. I was going to post a picture of us being spit out, but I was the only dead person, so no fun in that.
