NIGHT TIME!!

[ArkhamNative]

This is why even with XIV SE would never confirm or deny things like moon phases.

Answers are a prison. It also takes out all the fun of discovering arcane knowledge like elemental affinities. (Even if all you do is look it up on a wiki page.) But SE did finally officially name the moon phases. (In v1.x just hover the mouse over the moon phase icon). Same for weather.

Looks awesome Ive not seen many games having moonphases in their nightcycles

FFXI was superb in this regard. The moon had a slight color to it the same as the day's crystal affinity. And there were a few special quests that required a certain moon phase or time of day or night, or even weather. Extreme weather had a double elemental effect. Each zone only supported appropriate weather, like no snow on tropical islands, and was perhaps influenced slightly by the time of in-game year. So much attention to detail in FFXI.
