Click the link, scroll the the bottom and press Free, wait for the countdown and download the video.

Excuse the shitty quality, but this is the first video I've ever found where he has been defeated. This seems like it was after some big bug fix on the Dynamis Lord, so it's a pretty hardcore fight.

P.S.- I know this is Dynamis-related, but I think everyone should see it. ^_^

Someone DID do it on our server. Apparently it's a 75 Red Mage who obtained the Shadow Mantle. They defeated it before the patch that "fixed" Dynamis mobs' special moves though.

Yea but this video was made last week after, much later than the TP fix. Watching it really makes me want to go to Dyna-Xarcabard and kick some demon ass. It gives me a reason to use warding circle, lol.

I should've clarified that the "they" I was referring to was the RDM who has the Shadow Mantle, not the LS in this video.

Yes the Atoy on our server has a Shadow Mantle, I posted a SS of it on IceFarmers website. I talked to him he got the mantle June 2004 before the patch. This video is post-patch and is the first non-64 BLM alliance I have heard of killing him after the patch. What I wanna know is what the hell they did with Ying and Yang!

Drakkan, can I get a link to the Icefarmers website?

What I believe their strategy was from analyzing the video and reading other almost successful strategies:

THF pull and PLD vokes DL and Invincibles. All BLM use Thundaga 3. 2 PLD are assigned to Ying and 2 more are assigned to Yang. RNG and THF/RNG go nuts on DL.

All melee gather 300TP AWAY from DL before hand and rush in to use Spirits Within. RDM/DRK wait in line to Chainspell+Stun saving at least ONE RDM toward the last 10-20% of DL life to Chainspell+Stun so remaining people alive (not many) try vigorously to kill DL. Positions of people is critical during the entire time because DL's clones will use Oblivion smash just like him, and if the first one doesn't kill you, the second and third will -- if you are in the "hot zone".

Another critical factor is raising quickly. All mages are expected to use Reraise or bring a reraiser, as are melee with bringing reraise items. Bard AOE raise shouldn't be relied upon since it wears off too quickly, but is still very very useful. BLM need to get back up quickly, 2hr and nuke until all are dead. Once melee use their tp, they need to run back away and gain more tp by sleeping.

I've never even been to Dy-Xarca, so there could easily be several flaws in this plan and I could be reading the video completely wrong.
