Day was Iceday. I was fighting RDM and PLD placeholders for Duke Berith and Marquis Sabnak. I killed 2 RDM mobs, then Duke Berith popped. On each of those RDM mobs as well as Duke Berith, on Iceday, I proc'd Red !! (I had all 5 Time Extensions killed) either using Katon: Ni or Katon: San (Fire based spell, strong vs. Ice).
After I took down Duke Berith, I moved onto PLD mobs, which is a WS proc. By this time Thundersday rolled around and I wanted to see if an elemental WS that was WEAK vs. Thunder would work. I used Blade: Yu (water based WS) and sure enough, I proc'd Red !! on the PLD.
So based on these observations, procs can be based on the current Vana'diel day. Whatever is Strong and Weak to the element of the current day. It seemed to work pretty well this afternoon.
Anyone else care to test this theory?
and just fyi I still don't have any theory on mobs where you need JA to proc !!.
