Dynamis - San d'Oria [D]

• Entrance: K-10 Southern San d'Oria Home Point #2
• Content Level = 139
• Grants the title: "Dynamis-San d'Oria [D] Trespasser" after Overseer's Tombstone is defeated .

Zone Info

• All Orcs are dual job and have access to 1 hr abilities from both jobs. Confirmed combinations so far are BST/RNG, SMN/WHM, BLM/RDM, PLD/DRG. It appears the mobs only use the first 15 jobs (not BLU, COR, PUP, DNC, SCH, RUN, GEO).
• Statues and Orcs are true sight and link with each other via sight. You can go behind these mobs to avoid aggro.
• Generally, each statue can spawn between 2 and 6 Orcs. The beginning section pops around 2-3 per statue and deeper into the zone, the amount of mobs per statue increases.
• Statues have different color eyes which determine the following:
  • Blue Eyes: Grants Orcs spawned a high resistance to physical damage. Magical damage taken is increased.
  • Green Eyes: Grants Orcs spawned a high resistance to magical damage. Physical damage taken is increased.
  • Red Eyes: Spawns higher level Orcs called "Leaders".

• Boss to the entrance to Northern San d'Oria is called Overseer's Tombstone
  • Black. I. Card start dropping instead of Rusted I. Card after this zone boss is killed.
  • Grants 30 minutes of additional time once defeated.
  • Can drop up to 3 Beastmen's Medals along with several Rusted I. Cards.
  • Personal drops will be gained based on if any party members are gaining the win for the first time.
    • This may include Rusted I. Cards and Beastmen's Medals. Spoils vary in number.
• After the Overseer's Tombstone is defeated, all previously spawned statues and Orcs that still remain in the zone will be removed and replaced with new statues which spawn upgraded Orc mobs called "Regiments".
  • It is best to fight the boss at his spawn area and have the back line party members off to the side to avoid a mass wipe due to statues popping on the ramp after the boss is defeated.
  • An Orc NM named Halphas will spawn at the Mog House after the Overseer's Tombstone has been defeated.

• In the event that you pull a statue that has no color eyes, the Goblin NM Aurix will spawn. He will use Bomb Toss and run away after a period of time so you will need to kill quickly.

Drops

• Footshards may occasionally obtained directly as spoils from any Orc mob before the mega boss is killed.
• Void Footwear may occasionally obtained directly as spoils from any Orc mob after the mega boss is killed.
• Any Red eye based statues that spawn the upgraded "Leader" Orcs can potentially drop new pieces of the Volte armor introduced in the November 2017 update.
• Orc Boss Halphas is confirmed to also drop the Volte armor pieces along with Kindred's Medals.
• Goblin NM Aurix is confirmed to drop Kindred's Medals as well.

Strategies/Setups

A balanced party of jobs is recommended. PLD or RUN main tank (1 is sufficient, 2 if not well geared). DDs should sub NIN due to mobs attacks hitting quite hard. 1 WHM per DD party. BRD, COR, GEO and SCH are very good for support buffs on DDs to speed up kills. BLM, RDM, SMN and SCHs are required for crowd control via sleeping and nuking of statues as they are very melee resistant. Puller should potentially be a RUN or PLD to minimize casualties. Mob killing order is important as well. SMN mobs should always be killed first to avoid Astral Flow wipe from awakened pets. NIN mobs are extremely dangerous with Mijin Gakure and should be dealt with last. Puller should try to prioritize color eyes on statue to be green so the orcs spawned are weak to melee in which the DDs can dispose of much easier. Average party size for this event is recommended for 12-18 but can be done with less depending on gear and jobs used.
