I feel like there must be something else that disables this, otherwise I have terrible luck in getting it.

Dunno why this is marked as eclipse sober only. Suspected for a long while now that it wasn't so, and I just got this encounter with both Fae Sight and Slags Poisoning active.

I'm guessing that Ocean Sight makes it not show up (which, for most people, means Etheric, so I can where the confusion is coming from.)

I'm getting this even with scaled vest and scaled pants. Pretty sure there's another, unrelated trigger going on here, which is good since the serpent suit didn't really make sense anyway.

EDIT: Also just got it with Ocean sight. Not sure what triggers this.

I just got it with Ocean Sight as well as with Ocean Song.

Edit: just got it with slags poisoning as well.

Could this be a straight stat test in addition to the air filter? This was showing up all the time previously, but now I can't get it, even with no headgear on at all.

The public files have some (not particularly insightful) insight:

It has a few suggestions for conquering the storms. Anyone dispatched to the beach should wear an air filter of some nature and a containment suit if possible. They should also carry at least one vial of Slags Antidote, either for themselves or their team mates.

Am I wrong or is this the one that I am preventing with just etheric defense (without air filter)?

Ah, yes, that looks to be true. And probably explains the weird edits to the main page where it seemed heavy containment suit worked (w/o helmet) sometimes but not others.

0 ED = storms
3 ED = storms
4 ED = no storms (15 turns) — just achromatic mask
5 ED = no storms
8 ED = no storm (25 turns) — just crackling branch equipped.
13 ED = no storm (25 turns)
