I started doing this as soon as i managed to log in, now after 5 tries to get a single vista in whatever weather/hour the designer decided i''ve given up.

Yet another great idea that was half-arsed by SE. They could have used the resources they wasted on this, for something more useful.... like Chocobo AI.

NOTHING will come between me and my baby apkallu!! It just might end up taking forever if is as bad as you guys all say...
Hopefully with the introduction of weather forecast NPCs, this will be a more laid-back activity than it is now. Personally, I am enjoying the breaks to look around.
I would be, if when I figured out the clue and got to my location, the game didn't go "NOPE! ITS NOT SUNNY ENOUGH!". I'm currently getting all the pleasure of finding the locations, with none of the rewards. It's ridiculous.
After finding a location, and finding out its not the right time/weather/position relative to the moon, I don't really feel like sticking around, since that's a waste of time, nor do I really feel like going back.

I really wish SE would just get over their tendency to make evrything pointlessly grindy or RNG heavy. Seriously, WTF!?!?! This would have been fun if you didn't need a specific weather on top of a specific time as well as a specific emote. Day/night requirement would have been tolerable but X hour + X weather + X emote makes these no fun. I woulda enjoyed finding and figuring most of these out myself but instead I've been forced online to find out what the proper combination of occurences are required to get the log completions. Gg SE way to make casual fun pointlessly hardcore.
Also all the way this was implemented has done is turn those cool little challenging to get to locations into ugly mobs of people camping the time/weather requirements

Welp I'm glad I looked at the forums before attempting this lol, SE ya blew it.
Wait what? The unlock quest requires none of the weather/time restrictions and the game tells you exactly where to go on the map. But yea, the implementation for this log is very disappointing.
You guys really dropped the ball with this SE. Was a good idea, as even in Guild Wars 2 I loved this sort of thing and went out of my way to get them. But having a weather requirement? A day/night requirement would have been enough, since you have to wait like 24 minutes for an ingame day. But the weather? I've been sitting here in New Gridania for over an hour and a half, and it STILL hasn't turned cloudy.
