Thread: Weather in Western Thanalan has strobe effect 1.18

Since I started playing again in patch 1.18 I noticed whenever there is a dust storm in Western Thanalan once and while the animation of it does a strobe effect. It is rather annoying and takes away from the immersion. I think the problem is with SLI because it doesn't happen on my other computer. So yes a simple fix would be to stop using it, but FFXIV does work fine with SLI in all other cases. So this isn't really something that I could technically fix, it would have to be fixed on the development side, so please let them know, thanks.
