5. After entering Dynamis, a player may not enter another Dynamis until 72 hours have passed. This 72 hour time period is based on when you ENTER Dynamis, not when the time runs out.

6. When the boss monster is killed, a ??? will spawn at his location of death. Investigate this ??? to obtain a key item which verifies you have Cleared the Dynamis.

7. While in Dynamis, the spell �Escape� does not work. The Song �Mazurka� only works in Dynamis-Beaucedine and Dynamis-Xarcabard.

Dynamis Monster Information:

1. All monsters in Dynamis see through Sneak and Invisible.

2. The more monsters you defeat, the stronger they become. Monsters strength increase dramatically after defeating the boss Monster.

1. These statue monsters spawn 2 - 4 beastmen when aggrod.

2. The Statues have 1000 HP

3. They have incredibly high physical damage resistance and moderate magic resistance

Beastmen:

1. There are beastmen monsters for every job in Dynamis

2. Every beastmen uses 2-Hour Abilities

3. It is possible to steal Dynamis Currency from beastmen (low success chance)

Pets and Summoned Monsters:

1. Pets and Summoned Monsters have as much HP as beastmen.

2. If a Summoner uses �Astral Flow� while their pet is asleep, it will do nothing.

3. When the Summoner dies, the Avatar will also die instantly.

Preparation for Dynamis:

1. Mogenhancement: Experience is highly recommended before attempting Dynamis. Below is a chart of EXP loss to a level 75 player:

No Raise Raise 1 Raise 2 Raise 3

Normal 2400 1800 600 240

w/ Mog 2280 1710 570 228

2. Turn off Auto-Target to avoid accidentally attacking the wrong target.

3. Set your Home Point next to the Trail Markings in case Release is necessary

4. Do not use <bt> or <t> in macros. Instead use /ta <stnpc> and <lastst>.

5. Remove all lines of /p chat from macros to reduce lag / spam.

6. Bring a scroll of Warp if you cannot cast it. You might be asked to sacrifice pull, and this has the possibility of saving you some exp.
