    Post your Nexus light findings

    Abandoning the spreadsheet. It seems there is no set schedule, or at least not a 24 hour one. If I had to guess though, from what I've seen so far it seems completely random. One primal can have the bonus back to back for 4 consecutive hours or it can switch from something like garuda to ifrit and then back to garuda. Oh well :/

    So theoretically if all you did was ST, (which has consistently given me blinding lights only) you'd need 167 ST runs based on the information on Reddit saying u need 2000 pts.

    That would be the most inefficient way of farming. Currently nothing tops Cape Westwind and Garuda HM grinds.

    Three ST runs will give you, at most, 48 points. That's, at worst, 24 runs of Garuda. If each Garuda run takes 3 minutes, that's 1:12. You would have to complete ST in 24 minutes each time for it to compete. And that's not considering Bright lights from Garuda. >_>

    Already starting to see signs that it's not a set schedule but maybe random. It went garuda > ifrit > leviathan and it's back to ifrit now.

    What group do you run with for 3min Garuda HM? Our preform party of 6 DPS runs 2min 15s. Averagely it should be under 2mins 30s. Which means 24 rounds of 2.5mins Garuda HM, means 48 points per hr.

    Cape Westwind with a pre-made, assuming 6 DPS can be done at about 1min per run. That is about 60 points per hr.

    Nothing else beats these 2 runs. Even if ST gives bonus at Newborn star, you will need a pre-formed alliance that can run 20mins ST, and that is 3 runs in an hour, 16 x 3 = 48 which is the normal Garuda rate.

    I don't think I need to give any further math on this.

    I'm skeptical on a 1 minute run. You have to take into account time it takes to leave, time it takes to renter, time it takes to pull. That alone could add 30 seconds.

    Averagely possible. We have seen a 40s kill last night with 6 DPS that is counted with the timer itself, from the time you can move out of the protection circle to the time it is killed, 40s. Even if this takes 1m, time to re-enter with a preform party takes at most 10s. It is about there. Cape Westwind and Garuda HM are so far unmatched in terms of lights/min.
