I'd be careful posting dat mined info on these forums people. They will likely be handing out bans to those who do.
Today we garuda farm HM between 15h-17h we had bright, and before 15 h we get gentle, and after 17h same (25 kill). We try titan HM 17h after we have them bright where as before we had them 15h gentle (5kill). So the theory has certain time of day some boss sees increased their brilliance seems plausible
Today my Nexus thingy changed to "The relic exhibits indistintc aetheric activity". I lost count on what I did (spammed a lot of trials/experts and lots of fates). And now the relic image on the left keeps ticking from black to a little lighter than it was before constantl (while it was static in a darker tone before).

The light bonus appears to change every 2 hours. Was in a party farming Garuda HM and we were getting bright light from 9am to 11am cst. At 11am it changed to gentle light. So we tried Titan HM to see if the bonus moved to there and it did. Starting at 11am Titan HM started giving bright light. We are done now but i would assume Titan HM will give bright until 1pm cst then it will likely change to Moogle HM. And im willing to bet the 2 hours before Garuda it was Ifrit HM.
Id bet it works the same for dungeons too. Just have to figure out the rotation they go in and at what times each one has the bonus.
I'm wondering if I have to have both Curtana and Holy Shield fully novus'd before I can start nexus'ing the sword.
Ran ST 4 times as il110, got blinding all 4 times.
It does seem to work out with the hours. The following is just conjecture because I need to head to work and cannot test it. Based off of your experiences
Garuda would get Bright between 9am-11am (Hours in CST)
Titan would get Bright between 11am-1pm
Moogle would get Bright between 1pm-3pm
Leviathan would get Bright between 3pm-5pm
Ramuh would get Bright between 5pm-7pm
Ifrit would get Bright between 7pm-9pm
and again, Garuda would be back at the 9-11 slot.
So it seems to work theoretically if anyone wants to try the above times to verify if they get Brights inbetween these times. I assumed the times based on the order the primals came out.
