Has to be a gimmick to #18. Perhaps it's the combination of all three worst elements: very rare weather, a very specific time and an emote we haven't had to use before. Would be humorous if /harvestdance worked, but I just don't know. Seems no-one has it. I have seen that rainbow before only once. Perhaps it's linked and I honestly wouldn't rule anything out just yet.

If indeed we do have seasonal patterns in Eorzea as we did in Vana'diel, I expect that it's "out of season" for Rainy right now (probably summer). And that could be why it's currently so rare. Will see Showers far more often.

If the season thing is true, they really should have just released all 80 at once instead of forcing you to do them 20 at a time. The way it is now it's very likely we'd have to wait for other seasons, when we could have done all "summer" season vistas already.

I've used every emote in every weather at every hour of the day and got nada. If I had known what that rainbow might mean when I saw it yesterday, I would have booked it back to the goobbue and prayed like Mother Teresa. There are only two possibilities at this point - its the rainbow, or its the heretofore unseen "Rain" weather.

I believe the rainbow appears in Fair weather following Showers during the 8am weather change, since I believe that's when I took the picture, and I have since tried it in Clear at 8am after Showers and no rainbow.

Well, maybe something with the weather patterns got screwed up during the patch implementation and they're just not aware of it yet(?) Or maybe they are but since it's the weekend and all it's not their highest priority.... Idk.

Talking to Iryoku in-game at #018. The Rain that came the other day was definitely Rain and not showers. People spammed /emotes between 12am and 8am ET to no avail.

And so we wait...

In all liklihood it's the rain we need and daytime is what i've been guessing.

Any advice on getting to the last lamppost for #010? I can get to the other two posts no problem but reaching the proper one is a problem. Where are you supposed to jump from to get to that lamp? I keep coming up just short jumping from the rock just above Apkallu Falls.

[Yuuko_Shionji]

Try popping sprint but jumping from a bit further back.

It's possible to Aetherial Manipulation to someone on the pole if you do it while falling, which is what I did personally. As for doing it yourself idk!

Haha, I just had the idea of trying sprint from the lower section just before checking back here. Thanks though

More or less cheating to me, but it would've worked had someone else been here to try it on :P

#017 "The fog was so thick you could cut it with a blade. My foot slipped, and in an eyeblink I was sprawled out on a cliff, the ruins of a buried city before me. Sadly, the stinging pain in my arse detracted somewhat from my enjoyment of the scenery." Such were the adventurer's words and I would see as he saw.
Central Thanalan: Sil'dih Excavation Site (15, 22) | Morning (8am to 12pm) | Fog | /lookout [Shioban Mooney - Excalibur]
Specifics: Fall down to a ledge from the path above the Excavation Site.

Just confirming that it is: Correct time | Fog weather | /lookout
