Light weather or light storm?? Is there an inside joke in here that I'm completely missing out?
I'm confused D: I'm confused why he said weather specifically when my question already specified with storm...

I was more confused as to why you're considering weather and storm spells such a different scenario D:

Apollyon 119 will have double light weather for your twilight cloak healing needs
Also, RNG will be King again

RNG was a top DD in Dynamis even where it has double dark weather though. Storm overwrites environment.

That's a distinction without a difference, storms are weather.

I'm looking forward to the RNG thing.
GEO with Idris+ Daybreak is pretty solid light damage as well. FLASH Nova/Seraph Strike is pretty nice.

Oh I typed Apollyon but meant Temenos (indoors)
Koki SAM probably broken too. We didn't have all the MAB/WSD gear back when original Temenos came out, will be busted now (unless there's some elemental resistances). Ditto for COR+Leaden in Apollylon (outdoor) zones
Also, random inconsistency rant:
SAM:
Goten - Thunder > Hybrid
Jinpu - Wind > Hybrid
Kagero - Fire > Hybrid
Koki - Light > Hybrid
NIN:
Teki - Water > Hybrid
To - Ice > Hybrid
Chi - Earth > Hybrid
Ei - Darkness > Magical (would have been nice to have a Leaden-level type of darkness damage WS to bring NIN back, maybe other Hybrids will work just fine though)

I want to start doing Shinryu HTBF now since I want to burn merits on something and I never bothered before (even when it was glitched and you could brew it I was too lazy to spam it, like an idiot). I have SCH, RDM, DDs, THF, what difficulty can I do on which jobs? I can also 2box.

Alhanelem is the second biggest mentally deficient human in the FFXI community after Spicy.
Eiryl would be second, but he's not part of the FFXI community, he's a parasite.

Thought the same thing but I let it go. He responds to every single thread by degrading it. Complete tool.

I watched the RDM VD videos and I don't think I have the patience for it. Do you think PLD+RDM+DD or PLD+BRD+DD with PLD AoE curing could chip VD down with little chance of dying?

Should be dead in less than 2 minutes if you have a BRD and a PLD. Not a hard fight, really nothing to be worried about, I explained in the thread the only threats (Kaustra, AOE magic, Cataclysmis Vortex), but with a real healer, none of it is a real threat. Just 4-5 step him and he should drop (nothing, of course) quick.
And the RDM method doesn't really require any patience, it's basically enspell > silence > para > sanguine blade 50 times. The real issue is just nothing ever drops. Doesn't matter if its 2min kills or 10min kills. I just used it as a way to kill time and dump merits in between Omen, Segs, Sortie, other dailies. Never actually farmed it and refilled merits to repeat (except during the exploit). Got thousands of REA stones in the process though!

*** me it spammed doom over and over and over at low HP. It was back on by the time you could get it off 3x in a row. What a dumb pile of ***that is.

Nicander's necklace and a few accessories and Holy Waters have a high rate of removing doom, it's usually not an issue. RIP if you didn't buy one before the Asura Price Hike from last month's ambuscade. Can just have your PLD and BRD sub WHM and spam Cursna with the appropriate set.
Oh yeah, I had observed certain behavior by Shinryu with his AI. Sometimes he's normal and does moves randomly, other times he gets stuck in a continuous loop of the same move 5+ times in a row, and it can be ultra annoying. Like sometimes he will open his wings and keep them open for like 3+minutes, allowing for max DPS. Then another time he'll only open his wings for 10 seconds max, then close them, which prolongs the fight. Other times he'll spam Atomic Ray and force me to Panacea. Then there's the times he does nothing but Mighty Guard for 4 minutes straight and you can't deal a lot of damage to him. And what you mentioned, spamming Supernova. Seems like he enjoys waiting until you remove Doom and this makes him use it more. And more. And then when you wait 5 seconds before removing it, he uses Cataclysmic Vortex instead for 1900 damage, forcing you to decide how you want to die. Wait until he decides to do Terror for 15 seconds, then when that wears off, stun auto attack, followed by Cataclysmic Vortex, then stun again and you wipe at 1%. Fun times.
Probably belongs in Shinryu discussion thread at this point

Definitely didn't feel right, like that glitch for sure. 2nd one went down a breeze.

Anybody know what level of quickening is provided by the pom-pom fruit? 10% determined using the targetinfo addon.
Light weather or light storm??
Can accept the latter but thought MAB was of diminshing returns and a straight up 1.05* modifier sounds hard to beat without doing the math. by stating weather i simply meant anything that causes the light weather effect, including storms. I simply thought of it as the catch-all term. /shrug
I have not done the math in quite a while, but it's hard to beat INT+30 mACC+20 mDMG+20 MAB+10 regardless since on anything worthwhile you are likely to have no where near cap dINT.
also it isn't a 5% increase unless you have matching single weather but ascendant day to deal with.
with T2 storm spells & non-factor day twilight will take it from 25% to 30% weather buff; a 4% increase.

Do Archon ring, Shadow ring, and Warder's charm +1 all stack? I know the last two do with each other.

Can you buy Stage 1 of a prime after you've made Stage 2+? The Stage has a different name and model, or does the Taru not allow it?

This is why I'll never make the club, don't want to lose my sleep immunity on WHM.

Is there any data on what Brazen Rush's Datk rate floors at towards the end of its duration?

Yes. However, archon ring only activates if magic damage taken is >85% of your HP, kinda like a scherzo for magic damage.
IMO a ring with MDB will outdo archon ring, regardless what other "annuls" effects you have stacked.

Also I couldn't find the Shinryu thread but I am now set to easily do E on THF with Valaineral+Selh'teus+ArceliaII+Ulmia, found Yoran doesn't really do anything when he died one run so thinking what to use instead, maybe Nashmeira II or Prishe II for an extra curaga. I haven't pushed it to N yet - anyone do N solo on THF without Ygnas or Monberaux?
For those of you that visit Bg you already know the premise of this thread but for those that don't, it's simple.
