Just curious if anyone's come to this zone for some of the earlier trials for earth weather and can share their experience :P. I read that Earth weather is 'frequent' in the Chasm, but I've been there 3 hours and there's been none and it's not forcasted at all either. Was thinking maybe there's not much earth weather in the Spring months (4 to 6). The next month (7) is the start of summer, anyone know if earth weather is more frequent in the chasm during the summer months?

I highly doubt it. If you want to know when there will be earth weather, just use the magian specs.

Yea, was thinking about that. Just read that Earth was frequent in the Chasm so was trying it out.

Yes, I understand the purpose of the Magian Specs >,>. That has nothing to do with my question. The weather in any given place is affected by the seasons. I remember camping wind weather in the Wajaom/Bhaflau region for Puks/Diremetes. During the Winter months I never once saw Wind forecasted, and it popped only once while I was out there for maybe 5 mins. But then Spring came, and almost every single day the forecast showed Wind. All I'm asking is if the Summer months will bring more earth weather, as checking the spectacles on multiple different days during the Spring months has revealed no Earth weather at all.

I would imagine that is purely coincidental, and sounds just like eyeballing to me. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sceptical about it.

weather is highly influenced by the month.

Weather is highly influenced by the month. Some months you can get near constant weather while others you get hardly any you want at all. Boyahda tree for example can have near constant Thunder constant Water a mix of both or hardly any of either depending on the month you go to the zone.

You learn something every day :)

This is exactly what lacks in the wiki regarding each elemental path.
General rule is just because the suggested area is said to have a lot of the "elemental weather" isn't always true as the month plays a huge part in that.

Its all seasonal, so its always best to use your Magian locs to know if you should do your trial or do something else. GL!
