    Please boost nexus lights for new dungeons.

    Brilliant/Blinding seems low for these new 2.4 dungeons. They take a lot longer and are more difficult than just spamming whatever the bonus HM primal fight is until you're blue in the face. Doesn't seem balanced to me.

    The Nexus content is barely a month old. It took 6+ months for Atma to get boosted, so good luck waiting for Nexus to get the same treatment.

    Also, the reason why you get higher amounts of light for dungeons/ST is because they take more time whereas primals take less time, thus you get less light. Dungeon spam is not "difficult", it just takes more time.

    Yes, exactly. More time for the new dungeons, less reward than spamming primals (since you can easily do a primal 4 times while you're doing one of the new dungeons). It's not that lights should be across the board boosted, just a little better balanced. And maybe balanced a little more in favor of new/more difficult content than facerolling stuff that's been out for over a year now (Garuda HM).

    4 times? You can do garuda about 10 times during the time it takes to do one of the new dungeons. Wouldn'tmind seeing tthe new dungeons bumped up one tier of lights.

    Bumped up how? Dungeons already give bright and brillaint lights. Another bump up would push it into blinding and newborn star territory (making ST grinds for lights pointless), making nexus acquirement very fast in the long run and square will not have that.

    Another way to balance it would be to make primal fights harder, so it need more time.

    I think they should boost nexus to i120 to be on par with non upgraded poetic weapons. Otherwise the next ilevel jump would have to be 15. Nexus' upgrade would be trash if it only went up to 125 and was weaker than the upgraded poetics.
