Couple days ago I got a read for lightning on Red proc, then as when I did Raiden Thrust it gave me a Light read. Now I know they are similar and a didn't get a chance to SS it. That was the only time had that happen but it also randomly says wrong person triggered when a lot of people are casting/WS'ing at once.

This is actually normal. The first screenshot can be explained by the fact you claimed it and it gave a message; mobs are setup to always have a weakness and therefore the first message is correct, but by claiming it, it'll go through it's random generator and usually end up assigning a different weakness.

The second screenshot I suspect that drain landed simultaneously with Aeolian Edge and that's why the message differ since it's magic weakness was darkness. Another example of this can be seen if you cast stun or another spell on a mob right before you pearl kill it. On one screen, you'll see azure kill and the other you'll see pearl. The coding seems to have trouble handling simultaneous actions properly.

Did the nms go unclaimed at any point and go back to its pop spot(or was being fought on its pop spot) or regenerate? That will also change the weakness.

The weakness for magic can be on that particular days element or the days on either side of that day.

The second one is against a NM and it's pet. Should always have the same proc and until recently always did

I dunno what's going on with the first one, but I know NMs that pop with clones/pets each have their own weaknesses, when I did Fistule it's clones all had a red trigger of their own, so that's probably what's going on in the second. First one is odd.

Claiming an NM with magic will always yield a message (assuming discernment procs the hint) saying their weakness is fire, even if it's not.
