A Guide to Friday Dynamis Lotting

[Mosh]

The following applies to Friday (Jeuno, Sandy, Bastok, Windy, Glacier, Xarc) Dynamis only. Monday (CoP) follows a different set of rules.

Term Definition

"counts", i.e. "70+ RNG counts"
This means you can lot if your job level matches the job level requirement and you have not won any non-mannequin AF2 that night. For instance, in the above example, anyone who has 70+RNG can lot the item as long as they have not won a non-mannequin item. Winning when an item "counts" means you can not lot anymore "counts" AF, even your designated lot, for the remainder of the run. No points are lost. If you lot and lose you can lot another non-mannequin item or your designated item that night.

"mannequin", i.e. "RNG mannequin"
This means anyone is open to lot and it does not count as the item for the night. Again, no points are lost. A lot of times people will lot at mannequin even if they have no intention to level the job. If you want the AF bad enough, lot it at "counts".


How AF2 is called if there are no designated lotters

Ice Zones

• 75 ??? Counts
• 70+ ??? Counts
• 65+ ??? Counts
• 60+ ??? Counts
• Anyone want this? Counts
• Mannequin ???

Cities

• 75 ??? Counts
• 70+ ??? Counts
• 60+ ??? Counts
• Anyone want this? Counts
• Mannequin ???

How AF2 is called when there are no designated lotters and it has dropped before

Ice Zones (no change)

• 75 ??? Counts
• 70+ ??? Counts
• 65+ ??? Counts
• 60+ ??? Counts
• Anyone want this? Counts
• Mannequin ???

Cities
Last tier +1, minimum of 60, then going down from there.

For example
RNG drops
Someone lots at 70+ Counts
RNG drops again
It starts at 75 Counts

SAM drops
Someone lots at mannequin
SAM drops again
It starts at 60+ counts


How people are chosen when AF2/100 drops

The loot table topic is your friend.

Let's use 12/19 Xarc 100 as an example.

The highlighted name goes first then people follow in tiers of 10s. For this example, the order would go:

• Pigsfart
• Shinku
• Strangers
• Garrin, Malkav, Reinika

The list keeps going down and skips people who have won or are not there.


People who are new or are unsure if they can lot
Send a tell to myself, Kazekuro or Kirakun, we can tell you whether or not you can lot. If you do not get a response, ask again or ask in LS.


Error in AF2/100 calling or me missing an AF2
Make the error known right in LS, don't be afraid to ask or tell people. Mistakes can happen.


Questions
If you have any questions, feel free to send me a /tell ingame, a forum PM, or respond to this post.


Edit History
4/29/09: Adjusted mannequin notes. Added Kaze in some areas. Made other areas more general since I alone don't call lots anymore.
